Try clipping a clothes pin onto your racking wand and rest the clothes
pin against the lip of the carboy. The wand will remain steady and you
can move the wand downward by gently pressing on it so it slides
through the clothes pin. HTH

Can pouring your mix through a coffee filter work as racking? I am about
to rack & don't want to spill any sediment or disturb while siphoning,
which
is something my shakey hands have trouble with.

Thanks!
