Spring-Loaded Bottle Filler Wand

Push down to fill. Lift up to stop. Bottling day, solved.

≈ $6–$7price range

Attaches to the end of your auto-siphon hose. Press the tip against the bottom of an empty bottle, wine flows. Lift, it stops. The wand also displaces just enough volume that when you pull it out, you're left with the perfect headspace.

Cheap. Indispensable. The reason bottling 30 bottles takes 25 minutes instead of two hours.
