Over the years I have wanted a way to get away from lifting heavy bottles from the floor, and a way to mix concentrates and splash sanitizers in carboys without having to lift and shake heavy, slippery bottles. A multi-use pump is the perfect solution.

The pump system I made works for mixing concentrates and water, racking from a high spot to a low spot, from a low spot to a high spot, or from two carboys sitting side by side. The pump also works for sanitizing carboys, bottles and other equipment and can also be used during bottling.

Robert Birkett transformed an ordinary pump into this multi-use winemaking pump.
