Let's rack to our bottling bucket. I pour the sanitizer in the bottling bucket into another 5 gallon bucket and put all my tools in there....racking cane and tube, bottling tube/ valve thing....more on this later.

Now, pour the cooled sugar water into the bottling bucket.



Put the sanitized racking can into the carboy with the beer and the tube into the bottling bucket. Remember, I have a racking cane that has a manual pump on it. One pump and my gravity siphon is started and the beer flows into the bottling bucket.

Once the beer is in the bottling bucket. I set it on a milk crate on a work table and put a little stool in front. You can see the long skinny tube coming off the bucket valve This tube has a compression valve on the end of it. When you press the bottom of the bottle against this valve, it opens and beer flows into the bottle.



Empty, sterilized bottles on the floor to my left.
