Displacement. Instead of using water, syrup or other wine to top up a carboy, some of us put sanitized marbles in. I help keep you from watering down your wine, adding too much sweet or changing the flavor with other wines.

Very cool and awesome!! What a great idea. This will help me so much, since I am using a 3gal primary and a 3gal carboy, and im only making 1-2 gal recipes. Perfect!!


Who ever thought of that, is a pure genious!!
 
Unless you're going to put the 2 gallon batches into 2 1-gallon carboys I would stick with either 1 gallon or 3 gallons. 2 gallon carboys are almost impossible to come by. I don't know if you'd want to do that much displacement. Just a thought.

If my wine comes out half as good as these labels did (they look great off the printer) this will be dynamite!!

filtered, sweetened (to 1.008), and bottled the maui wowie strawberry
banana wine tonight, was hard using the filter, had to make all new
hoses for it and first time using it, but all the 5 gallons went
through the fine filters ( fitlers are course, fine and sterile)
without any problem.
