I wanted to share my bottling bung design with you all. Here is a video: http://s883.photobucket.com/albums/ac34/TwinMaplesVideo/

There's also an attachment pdf with more details below.

Let me know what you think!

WOW first off what is the music? The video was awesome. I was just thinking today about how I could do a double hole bung for bottles. I like to save my less to bottles and siphon off any wine I can save. This is a great idea. Thanks for sharing.

Dan, not sure what you mean in your post. Dont you have to bottle fillers already? Twin, that is a great DIY!!!!!!!

I mean A double like twins just showed so I can rack from a 750ml to another. If I add all of my sediment to one then I can just siphon off the good juice from the sediment.

TwinMaples,
Nice invention and great video/explanation.

Thanks for the feedback. Dan, the name of the song is "Buena Fortuna". It was on a CD of music for videos that I bought just for that song.

I am going to work on doing something with a solid #3 bung as well. I started with the universal bung because it seems like it would be easier to move from bottle to bottle.

The solid bungs are tough to drill cleanly. If you find some tricks let us know! I know Wade was trying freezing and wasn't happy with the results. I think liquid nitrogen was his next experiment.

Will do, Rob. I have two different tools in mind to try, but probably won't be able to work on it for a few days.

Where do you get the plastic "T"s & elbows....... Saw some on-line for around $2.00 but they wanted $9.25 to ship them.... Must be CRAZY!!
