Default Topping Off after Racking

I'm a new winemaker and have a question about filling up the carboy
after racking. The standard advice is to use water, a similar wine, or
a smaller carboy. Would it be possible to add something to the carboy
to bring up the volume? There are food grade balls made of plastic,
rubber, glass, metal, etc. Maybe a handful of marbles or stainless
steel ball bearings for those of use with limited budgets. <g>

Has anyone ever tried this?

thanks,

dave
