I verified by cooling the weight of an imperial gallon og water and weighing it. Sure enough I had marked all 10 of my carboys using imperial gallons!!!! So anyway, this solved the mystery of why two gallons if prease cider came out to 1.
Talk about a pain in the ass. Now every time I need a volume measurement I've got to multiply by 1. Anyone that knows me knows that this is THE reason I'm using the metric system more and more when I go to home brewing. Comes in especially hand when figuring out parts per million. Sorry for the winded post, but I find it pretty funny that an American like me got beat by not using the metric system.
That's all funny stuff. Damn metric system. Although us Americans hate it, aren't we the only country that does not use it? Talked about that very subject with my wife yesterday. That's just dumb. I've embraced it for a while now, and I get how its tough to make the switch.

Last edited: Nov 8, Joined Sep 28, Messages Reaction score Top up a carboy when you fill it, you always want liquid up to about 2 inches below the bung as a general rule, at LEAST past the shoulders and into the neck.
This is to prevent overoxidization during aging. I use a similar wine. OR when making batches I will also usually use a 1L bottle from fizzy water, I'm addicted to the stuff and a tiny bung and airlock for top-up.
If you don't need much of it, you end up with a bit for top up and a normal "early" bottle for sampling with friends, so it works out pretty well.
I've topped up with water, everclear, and f-paks before as well, but I find that for most of my wines using a similar type works well it's a small enough amount that it won't effect the flavor much at all, and the plus is you get to drink the rest of the bottle!
And keep some drinkin wine at hand that whole time! Thanks all! I was going by the Vintners instrustions. I was amazed how much sediment was was stired up while I was racking. Never had this problem with my beer batches. The next batch I will rack and then wait a week to bottle. Are you guys saying to top off after racking the cleared wine?
Joined Feb 1, Messages Reaction score 6. Yes always top up after racking. A similar wine is best. Unless you want to use CO2 or Argon to take up the air space. Why the rush to bottle? After racking I let it sit and bulk age until I need the carboy again. This does promote the multiplication of carboys if you have the space. SarahRides Senior Member.

Now, if you can get less than ml of sediment good luck with that , you could end up with 30 bottles and change. I believe that anything over about 29 bottles from a white kit or 28 bottles from a red kit are just the "return" of the top off wine or whatever was used to top off.
I used to puzzle over the same thing when I would see yields of 32 bottles while I was getting 27 or But I was not topping off. I would start with a 6 gallon carboy, rack to a 5 gallon and a 1 gallon jug, then to a 5 gallon and a half gallon jug before I was ready to bottle and I would end up with 27 or 28 bottles. Incidentally, the Italian made "6 gallon" carboys are really about 6. If you are racking only clear wine and topping off with a similar wine, you should end up with almost 33 bottles at bottling time from an Italian carboy or just over 30 bottles from a Mexico produced one.
