to rack off you use some tubing to siphon the 'must' from it's demijon into another, sterilised demijon.
keep the tube above the sediment in the bottom so that gets left behind. (you can top up with some boiled water if you have to)

often, simply racking off from the sediment is enough to gets things cooking again Very Happy
