Do not be tempted to use a turkey baster, especially one that's been used with gravy! Turkey basters are hard to sanitize, so stick with a proper wine thief.
This is the place to read about the enjoyment of winemaking. We make our own wine at home and enjoy the fruits of our labours. We also buy wine and compare ours to the store bought ones. This forum will cover many aspects of winemaking and also wine buying and food paring. Please come back often for updates.

Wine Thief
Contrary to what you may think, a wine thief is not a friend or relative who comes over and drinks you dry. A wine thief is a hollow plastic or glass tube with a hole in each end, it is used for removing wine samples from the carboy.
Do not be tempted to use a turkey baster, especially one that's been used with gravy! Turkey basters are hard to sanitize, so stick with a proper wine thief.
