I was asked by a friend my thoughts on the bottler and thought I'd post it here as well. ItÂÂÂ?s not cheap unfortunately, but it does work quite well. But, not perfect. Using it, we hardly spill a drop, literally. It functions super clean. It takes some adjustment per the instructions to tune the device to the size of the bottle being used. But once that is set in, and you use the same size bottles, then the bottling hums along. We are in transition of moving from our used bottle collection to purchased bottles. Used bottles vary in size both in height, length of neck and width of opening. All of these factors affect the efficacy of the fill. Ultimately, when all the work is done, you want an ullage that is exactly right (about 1/2 inch). This also means that you have sized the cork to the bottle fill as well as tested how deep the cork is pushed into the bottle by the corker (it should be flush). Do a couple of tests before going into ÂÂÂÂfull productionÂÂÂ?. My guess is that we filled a bottle about every 1 minute. Adjust the volume too fast and the wine foams and too slow, well you just get older waiting for the fill.Where the device falls a bit short is that it doesnÂÂÂ?t fill exactly the correct amount. It could be due to a number of factors as mentioned above, or my not adjusting the unit correctly or too fast a fill rate orÂÂÂ_? This was reported in a review by another user as well. So, we find that most bottles need a few mm more wine or a few mm less. We have a process for this! We have a template on a piece of paper to where the exact fill level is. We then hold up the filled bottle to the template and make a judgement as whether to add or remove a little. We then use a pipette and add or remove wine. It doesnÂÂÂ?t take too long, maybe one bottle every 30 seconds, and 40% of the bottles are perfect and donÂÂÂ?t need attention. All in all a great device the times weÂÂÂ?ve used it and so far and we can do several hundred bottles without getting tired or any issues. (corking is real work though). But, itÂÂÂ?s not the commercial level filler I was dreaming about due to the fact we have to go back and tweak the ullage. Still, itÂÂÂ?s way better than doing the fill by hand.
