Abstract: A method and apparatus to wind hose into a hose package such that the hose may later be dispensed from the hose package without twisting. The apparatus includes a drum for winding the hose thereon and an indexer for feeding the hose onto the drum such that the hose forms the hose package. The hose package includes a plurality of first loops forming a first coil adjacent a first end of the drum and a plurality of second loops forming a second coil adjacent a second end of the drum. The first and second loops are alternately formed such that the hose extends from the first coil to the second coil at a crossover point between the coils after each loop is formed. When the hose package is removed from the apparatus an inner end of the hose is inserted between the first and second coils past a periphery of the coils. In this arrangement, the hose may be drawn out from the hose package without twisting of the hose.
