The ideal companion for MoreBeer! Pro Yeast Brinks or MoreWine!® Cellar Keg! for barrel topping. This heavy-duty rolling cart is custom welded to fit stainless steel kegs and a gas cylinder. Easily push a full keg from barrel to barrel and top up as needed. Rather than caster wheels, this rolling cart features flat-free polyurethane foam wheels that provide excellent shock absorption and won't go flat if punctured. Perfect for rolling over uneven surfaces, and you can rest assured you won't damage the wheels if they come into contact with sharp edges or debris around your winery. Your tools are never out of reach thanks to the removable accessory tray located in front of the handle bar. The tray can be filled with sanitizing solution to hold clamps and other fittings before or after use. Hooks on either side of the cart are perfect for coiled line, or hanging additional accessories you may need to complete your task.

A new take on an old favorite! Most winemakers appreciate the simplicity of using a keg for topping up barrels... apply nitrogen or argon gas pressure and you top up your barrels as needed. Our version of the cellar keg has a couple unique twists, designed after using most others on the market. We start with a brand new 50 Liter Stainless Steel Keg. We cut out the original valve and weld in a 4" tri-clamp ferrule. Some winemakers have told us they do not need the 4" opening. However, the cost difference between a keg with a 2" or 4" opening is very little, and boy is the 4" opening nice when you want to clean it quick by hand. The larger opening also comes in handy for small producers who may need to add oak staves into a cellar keg for structuring. A unique feature of our Cellar Keg is the 1.5" tri-clamp wine-out connection positioned at a 90 degree angle to the keg. Clamp on a butterfly valve for a consistently sanitary, easy-to-use connection. If you buy a Cellar Keg with a threaded connection the ball-valve that you attach gets contaminated and is hard to clean. Need a little help moving the Cellar Keg from barrel to barrel? Check out this custom-welded Rolling Cart! Features New Stainless steel 50 liter capacity keg 4" opening with Tri-Clamp connection 4" Clamp and gasket included 1.5" Tri-Clamp wine output 1/4" NPT threaded coupler welded into lid for gas connection Pressure relief "blow-off" valve to protect against over pressurizing Typically you will need hardware to connect the gas line and hardware to connect a liquid line to a hand-held barrel filling tool. We have listed all these items in the "you might need" section below. Please note we use 1' of the 1/4" beverage line as gas line(rated to 60psi) to connect to the 1/4" gas barb on the keg. On the end of the one foot connect the quick-disconnect set for an easy way to connect and disconnect your gas line.

Oak Segments larger surface area compared to chips or cubes offer a gradual, more controlled release of flavors
Medium Plus toast imparts flavors of vanilla, mocha, toffee, spice, and butterscotch
Ideal for long-term aging
Oak segments are carefully crafted, larger pieces of oak designed for a gradual and controlled flavor infusion into various beverages. Their increased surface area, compared to smaller oak forms, allows for a slower release of oak characteristics. This leads to a more subtle and balanced aging process, enabling the development of a rich, complex flavor profile over time.
Medium Plus toast imparts flavors of vanilla, mocha, toffee, spice, and butterscotch.
Oak Chips Inc. (OCI) specializes in providing premium oak alternatives, such as chips, cubes, and staves, for enhancing the flavor and aging process of wine, spirits, and beer. They source their oak from sustainable forests and offer various toast levels to help beverage makers achieve desired flavor profiles.
Reduces total acidity in musts and wines with precision and stability
Blended formulation of potassium bicarbonate and potassium tartrate minimizes pH overshoot
Preserves sensory quality while softening harsh acidity
Safer and more predictable than using raw deacidification salts individually
Improves conditions for malolactic fermentation by moderating acid stress
Deacid is a ready-to-use deacidification agent developed to safely and effectively lower acidity in musts and wines. It combines the acid-neutralizing power of potassium bicarbonate with the buffering and stabilizing action of potassium tartrate. This dual-action formula reduces the sharpness of excessive tartaric acid while avoiding the risks of using raw bicarbonate alone, such as overcorrection, CO₂ volatility, or sensory imbalance. Deacid works gently and predictably, preserving freshness and avoiding chalky or soapy off-notes. It also promotes a more favorable environment for malolactic fermentation to proceed by reducing overall acid stress. Winemakers choose Deacid not only for its effectiveness, but for its convenience, safety, and wine-friendly balance compared to standalone chemical treatments.
Protocol
Gradually add the calculated dose directly into the must or wine, ideally during pumping-over to ensure even distribution. If preferred, pre-dissolve in warm, chlorine-free water before addition. Monitor CO₂ release and volume increase during application. Rack or filter after salt precipitation settles fully.
Usage Rates
The manufacturer specifies 130 g/hL per 1 g/L reduction in total acidity. We’ve converted to more easily used dosage rates.

Its high swelling capacity and selective adsorption enable excellent clarity with minimal stripping of aromas and color. Thermally activated and quality-controlled by AEB, Bentogran ensures consistent performance in a wide range of wine styles.
Usage Protocol
Slowly sprinkle Bentogran into 10x its weight in clean, room-temperature water while stirring.
Allow to hydrate for at least 4 hours (or ideally overnight).
Stir again before use to ensure uniform suspension.
Add to must or wine during fermentation or post-fermentation, depending on clarification needs.
Mix thoroughly into the tank and allow settling for 24–72 hours before racking or filtration.

Superior cork quality for those needing a little extra confidence for longer ageing!
A standard length and diameter single punch cork in a high quality grading at a reasonable price. Corks are typically graded on a scale of 1-10, 1 being the best score, based on the degree of porousness that the actual punch of cork exhibits. Cork trees that show a higher population of worms or fungi tend to yield cork crops which are more porous. As a result, this bag of corks is of generally higher quality and has less variation between the highest and lowest quality cork in the package.
These corks are harvested and punched in Portugal, like the majority of the rest of the corks available today. They are processed, sorted, prepped and packaged here in Northern California.
An optional vacuum device for the Zeus Large Format Bottle Corker. This model has an adpater designed to work with Farro brand Champagne Bottles from 750mL to 1.5L. The bottle interface was specifically machined for the Farro Champagne bottles so that the o-ring makes an airtight seal during the corking process. Creating a vacuum in the bottle prior to corking removes oxygen but also reduces pressure in the headspace which can potentially cause corking issues. This vacuum adapter requires the connection of an air compressor to create the vacuum. See here for the vacuum device with adapter for 3L still wine bottles and 5L still wine bottles.

Simply adjust the bottle seat to the right length depending on the diameter of your bottle and adjust the spinner height so that when you pull the lever down the rollers completely cover the foil and you're good to go! Our stand should work with most spinners available, but please double check the bolt pattern shown below against the plate on the bottom of your spinner or the footings on the motor. You will need to source your own bolts for attaching to the stand, as the size, pitch and depth of the hole in your motor/mounting plate will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Specifications: Made from 304 Stainless Steel Bolt Holes are spaced 90mm W x 110mm H Shaft Height: 900mm *Please Note: The drawing at the right shows the stand with a spinner mounted to it. This SKU is to purchase the stand by itself. If you would like to purchase a vertically mounted complete unit, please see W650 - Upright Foil Spinner.
