I feel somewhat foolish asking this, however I can not seem to reconcile this process in my head to my hearts content.
I am going to be bottling my 1st batch of 1 gallon of wine.
My typical process when bottling 6 gallons is to rack the carboy back into a fermenting bucket. The bucket has been fixed with a spicket which I use to bottle with one of those tipped bottling sticks!
The only issue I see with this is that it would require me to tip the bucket to get just 1 gallon out. Since the spicket is just below the 1 gallon mark.
Since I dont use a pump just looking for feedback on how people do this. Looking for tips to make my life easier.
Otherwise I may just rack into a 1 gallon glass jug and use the auto siphon/ with bottling stick.
