Similar to the “blow to start” siphons people use with carboys.
So I 3D printed two standard PET bottle caps, each with a hole for a racking cane. Both screw directly onto the FermZilla ports.
One cap holds the racking cane → siphon tube → bottling wand.
The other cap has a small tube just for blowing into.
When bottling, place the wand in the bottle, push down to open and give a quick blow into the second tube.. siphon starts instantly.
I've found it super easy compared to previous method which "sucked". minimal oxygen exposure (I think).
