Carboy Wedge

A carboy wedge is a plastic tool designed to slide under a carboy or cooled boiling pot, making it easier to tilt the container. This comes in handy when you’re trying to get the very last drop of wine or beer without stirring up sediment at the bottom. Forget the struggle of holding the carboy with one hand while siphoning with the other. Thanks to the simple carboy wedge, you can easily prop up one side of the container, allowing you to extend a racking tube into the deeper end when you’re transferring liquids. This slight incline ensures that the sediment stays undisturbed until the wine or beer level drops below it. As the liquid goes down, the sediment gradually shifts toward the lower end, giving you plenty of time to stop the transfer process without picking up a bunch of lees or trub. Whether you’re using a single wedge or going for extra stability with two, this tool is a real game-changer for minimizing sediment pickup when you’re racking. In the end, the carboy wedge lets you tilt the carboy or pot with ease, so you can siphon out every last drop of liquid while leaving behind unwanted lees, trub, or sediment.
