BOTTLING:  FILLERS, CLAMP AND VALVES
BOTTLING SPIGOTS

 The Combination bottle fillers can be used with or without a spring, which makes it both a gravity filler and a spring bottle filler. Guaranteed not to leak.  (Let us know!) The main body can be unassembled
from the acrylic tube for cleaning and the tube is long enough to fit most bottles.
 

We have found that using the 1/2" filler for 750 ml bottles, leaves too much of an air space for the cork.

 The fillers attach to end of tubing after the siphon is started.bottle filler combination

BUON VINO SUPER AUTOMATIC GRAVITY BOTTLE FILLERBuon Vino Super Automatic bottle filler
Buon Vino Super Automatic Bottle Filler allows for quick and easy filling of wine bottles for the home winemaker. This bottle filler is easily primed and is
self-leveling and self-deactivating to help prevent accidental overflow. The specially designed tapered tip cascades wine into the bottle. In order to fill additional  bottles, you need simply remove the automatic filler
from the first bottle and place it into the next, pushing down on the activation lever to continue the wine flow.
 


FERRARI AUTOMATIC BOTTLE FILLER (below)

ferari automatic bottle filler for winemaking

This slick unit can be used for bottling both still and sparkling wine.
The filler has a tapered fitting that accommodates 5/16", 3/8" and
1/2" siphon hoses. To use, simply attach the siphon hose to the spigot
on the bottling bucket and filler unit, turn the spigot on, push the button
on the filler and the filling begins! When the bottle is full, the unit automatically shuts off. The rubber piece that goes into the bottle can be moved to adjust the fill level. The nut on the top of the unit allows regulation of the flow.
Can be used with a racking wand from your carboy for bottling, see below:

We have 5/16 tubing that is a tad smaller than the 3/8 and fits on the hose barb (coming off the right side in the illustration) that connects from your racking wand that is in the carboy to the filler unit. The 3/8 tubing creates an air leak.  You can also try wrapping waxed dental floss or waxed dental tape or Teflon tape on the wand, though Teflon tape may be too wide. 

The 5/16 tubing will need to be soaked in hot water in order to force onto the hose barb.
