Default Topped up too early.. Island Mist kit

ah. The joy of watching grandkids AND trying to do next steps in
winemaking. I messed up.

I am making the Island Mist Mango Citrus Symphony kit (6 gallons) and
during step 2 (initial racking) I didn't read the "don't top up at this
stage" and topped with 1/3 gallon of white wine to the top of carboy.
Now I have no room for stage 3 which is the stablizer, etc.

Besides contacting the wine maker, which I will. Anyone ever do this,
and suggestions?

I guess I could during stage 3 (in 10 days) remove a gallon, add the
stage 3 stablizer, etc. and then top back up with what I can of the
gallon removed.

A 2 year old and 8 month old can keep ya hoppin'!
