Will I be transferring the brew too much?

[mogger]

I have 2 FVs and am currently about to bottle a batch of St. Peter's Golden Ale.
I have already moved the brew into the second FV and let settle for a week before bottling.
My problem is I only have one bottling wand and tap and I stupidly put this on the second FV and so if I batch prime now, the FV I will be bottling from won't have the 'Little Bottler' on it.
So, can I transfer the beer back into the first FV, then again into the second FV for bottling or am I moving this around to much?
Or should I just buy another 'Little Bottler'?
I don't really enjoy the bottling process anyway and the bottler makes it a lot easier for me.
Cheers!

I have 2 FVs with little bottlers and 2 without for this very reason. For the £7-8 they cost, it's worth just buying another.

Yeah I have a beer waiting bottling a week. Primed it then got tied up. Maybe it will be better for it. Although I doubt it.

transfer befor the fermentation has completely finished, as when u syphon or drain thru a tube into the bottom of the receiving vessel the co2 in suspension is agitated out of the beer and forms a protective blanket over the beer, if you have no co2 left in suspension it cant do this..

And keep the lid 99% on while transferring too the real danger is dirty matter dropping out of the air.
