Joined Oct 26, 2011 Messages 21,584 Location (City and/or State) Kent, South East England My concern about cork is that it is not absorbent enough to hold the moisture required to raise humidity. If it were able to soak up liquid then it would be useless for wine bottles - think about it! I don't think it is suitable therefore.
