Default racking 1 gallon jugs of wine

Hi Pp:

You making any port this season? Have 5 gal of Cab and ~60lbs of
plums in the freezeragain for more plum port.

racking
The tubing comes off a roll at the hardware store and has a curl set
into it.

When slipped in the jug or carboy they find the edge of the glass
right away and stay right there untill I scoot them down. Never had
one that was straight yet!

Take Care,
Steve
Oregon
