If you're a wine connoisseur, then you might be thinking of upgrading your collection with a wine cooler. But where do you start when you being looking for this new appliance? That's why we've decided to pull together a quick faq about wine coolers and when and how they should be used.

Wine Cooler FAQ

  • What wine should you put into the cooler? 


Not all wine needs to be kept in the cooler. Red wine should be drank at room temperature (typically 12 - 19 Celsius), however storing it at a cooler temperature can help to keep it fresher and better to drink for longer. So if you're thinking about serving red wine with a meal, it's worth thinking ahead and keeping it out on the side to warm up before drinking. 

White wines however should be served a cooler temperature, around 8 - 12 Celsius.

Wine coolers can have their internal temperature adjusted to make sure that whatever wine you're storing in there, it will be ready to drink. 

  • How do you maintain your wine cooler? 

They are incredibly easy pieces of kitchen appliances to maintain. To clean them, we swould suggest wiping away any dust or debris with a soft cloth then using another soft cloth and some warm soapy water to wipe down the inside and the racks. 

  • What else is important when it comes to wine? 

So you've got the temperature down. Now it's time to think about the humidity. Humidity plays an important factor in wine storage, protecting the corks and the lifespan of your wine.
