Long tube pressure filler Explanation: Literal translation, I assume that it is some kind of machine for putting the wine into the bottles under pressure. More than that I cannot say, unless it refers to the arrangement of the filling tube being vertical. Regards, Iain |

Long tube pressure filler Explanation: This is a difficult one; if you translate it literally, it means indeed long tube pressure filler, but since 'Langrohrdruckfüller' was used in a 'wine' context, it might refer to the ROHR (cane) being used in the process of wine-making (< Rohrzucker: der am häufigsten vorkommende Zucker, der in fast allen Frucht- oder Pflanzensäften enthalten ist), hence the translation could be 'long cane pressure filler' ; But I couldn't find it in the many dictionaries I've consulted, not even in www.wein-plus.de/glossary/glossary.pdf Reference: http://www.wein-plus.de/glossary/glossary.pdf |

long pipe pressure filler Explanation: Oftentimes, tubes that have to do with pressure are pipes, not tubes. Also, extended can possibly substituted for long, conduit for pipe, and valve for pressure filler. Maybe those fit better in your context. Cheerio, Dierk |

also: long tube wine filler Explanation: Actually, I found a long tube filler for wine. For sparkling wines (and beer), apparently counter pressure fillers are used, so it is reasonable to assume that the filler for wine would be a pressure filler.
