Better Bottle Racking Carboy Adaptor
£17.75
The Better-Bottle Carboy Racking Adapter attaches the High-Flow valve to any ported Better-Bottle carboy and makes racking and bottling quick and easy. The Racking Adapter uses a special O-ring to make a seal against the inside wall of a Better-Bottle carboy eliminating crevices that could trap contamination. This special O-ring also makes it possible to rotate the body of the Racking Adapter easily, without lubrication. Racking simply requires rotating the Adapter so the tip of its intake stem is just above the sediment layer, opening the High-Flow valve, and letting gravity do the work there is no need for siphons or pumps.
The external pointer makes it possible to adjust the position of the stem even if the stem cannot be seen through a dark wine or beer. We particularly like this adaptor because, as we ferment on shelves, we can rack from carboys without having to move them to a place where there is sufficient headroom to introduce a racking cane.
