This. I bottled with the damn wing capper for 12 years before I bought a bench capper. All those wasted hours ....Bench cappers work a lot better than wing cappers. Snapped more than a couple necks with wing capper.

Curious as to why pull the bottle up to the wand?
Thanks.
Cool. I thought possibly a mechanical reason I wasn't aware of. Thanks.For me it's just much easier and more natural.

I use different colored caps tooThere are two things I do that I don't see mentioned above. Since I don't label, I use a different color cap for each batch and record the color in the notes section of my brewing software.
Also I place a blank cap on each bottle as soon as it is filled (keeps out the fruit flies) then I cap them all at once when done filling.
Only real advantage I see to kegging is
ease of serving but, how hard is it to open a bottle?
Also, I do a lot of 2 to 3 gallon batches. This alone eliminates a lot of bottling
work.
Oh, I also wish I’d have had the fast rack thingy from day one. My wife got sick of me adding and deleting it from my cart and she just surprised me with it. It’s very important to my process.
