A few months ago I made a batch of cyser, which is fermented apple cider and honey. The cyser has been clearing and stabilizing for several months and is now ready for the bottle. I'm bottling in champagne bottles, which I will cap with push-in caps and wires attached with a pair of pliers. Couldn't be easier! The cyser will be carbonated, so I held off on the metibisulfite and added about half a cup of priming sugar (mixed with hot water) to the cyser prior to bottling. Can't wait to see how this turns out!

I am interested in hearing about this as well! Sounds interesting. Thanks for all the interesting reading! And the sewing machine table is beautiful!
hey, what kind of filling device is this. I assume its some kind of a filter, but I have never seen anything like it, would you mind sharing exact model of it?
cheers mate
It's the Buon Vino siphon bottle filler. Saves a lot of time and hassle when filling bottles.
