Find the Best Wine Cooler for You and Your Collection
Before investing in wine storage, it is important to consider several important factors. First, take note of the size of your wine collection and select storage that has ample room for future purchases. Next, decide how much you would like to spend on your wine cooler. Does your wine cooler need to match a certain color or style? Lastly, determine where you will install your wine cooler. Select a level location that can withstand the weight of your wine cooler when fully loaded with wine, inside an insulated room, and away from direct sunlight.
Why Do I Need a Wine Cooler?
A guaranteed way to ensure your wine tastes its best is to store it under the right conditions. Wine ages gracefully in a space with a consistent temperature of 55℉. Temperature fluctuations can negatively affect the taste of the wine. Additionally, the relative humidity of your wine cooler or cabinet should be between 50 to 70%. Without humidity, the corks of the wine bottles will dry out, allowing oxygen to seep into the bottle. Wine bottles should be stored in a horizontal position on a wine rack so that the liquid inside the bottle touches the cork, preventing oxidization. When placed in the proper location, a wine cooler can keep the wine safe from unwanted UV rays that may heat the wine. Lastly, unwanted vibrations can kick up sediment inside the bottle. Storing your wines inside a cooler in a low-traffic area of your home or business will allow the wines to rest undisturbed.
What is a Beverage Cooler?
A beverage center or beverage cooler is an appliance designed to store drinks. Like a kitchen food refrigerator, beverage fridges are insulated, sealed, and utilize a cooling system. The interior of a beverage cooler features wire racking or flat, tempered glass shelves. Other features of beverage centers include the LED interior lighting, a digital temperature control panel, glass or solid doors, and locks. Beverage coolers are ideal storage options for beer, water, sports drinks, and juice. Some beverage centers have multiple independent temperature zones, allowing you to store beverages and wine. Most wine and beverage coolers offer a similar temperature range, between 41 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
