Homebrew Wine Whip – Degassing Stick

If your wine kit instructions call for periodic, vigorous stirring to de-gas your wine, The Wine Whip can save a lot of effort.

Suitable for for 1 gallon or 5 gallon fermenters. The Wine Whip fits onto a drill, as the drill spins the degassing stick rotates to degas your wine. Much quicker than stirring by hand!

The plastic Wine Whip measures approximately 39cm total length and approximately 30cm from the lower end to the bottom of the bung.

Why is degassing essential?

Degassing wine is important because it removes dissolved carbon dioxide (CO₂) left over from fermentation. If you skip it, the wine can feel fizzy, taste sharp, and seem thinner than intended.

It also improves clarity and stability. Trapped CO₂ can keep particles suspended, making the wine look hazy and slowing down clearing. Once degassed, finings and sediment settle more effectively.

Finally, it helps the wine age and condition properly. With the gas removed, flavours come across smoother and more balanced, and bottling becomes safer because you avoid pressure build-up in sealed bottles.
