Transfer the Wort to the Carboy

Remove the stopper from the carboy and put it in the sanitizing solution. Set the carboy in the location where you want to do your fermenting, and put the sanitized funnel in it. Put a sanitized paper clip or other wire over the mouth of the carboy to allow for ventilation of the funnel. Pour the wort into the carboy. Temporarily put the cap into the carboy (don't jam it in hard).

Note that at this time your wort is susceptible to bacterial infection. Try not to stir up dust before or during this operation. Everything which touches your wort should be sanitized!

Add Water to Make 5 Gallons

Add cold water to your carboy to the 5 gallon mark, if needed. I use tap water, not boiled and cooled water as is often recommended. In this case, I had estimated correctly and the boil ended up with 5 gallons, so I did not have to add any water.
