    ANVIL FOUNDRY ALL-GRAIN BREWING SYSTEM

    I've only completed one brew on my new Foundry so far. Efficiency was pretty low - around 63% if I recall correctly. I used my old bag in the malt pipe. For a sparge, I heated up a gallon or so of water and used a measuring cup to sprinkle the water over the malt while the pipe was in the raised...

    ANVIL FOUNDRY ALL-GRAIN BREWING SYSTEM

    I got mine from my lhbs (that's actually their name as well). Picked it up a week or two ago - they ordered it in for me right as the new top mounted control version was released.

    ANVIL FOUNDRY ALL-GRAIN BREWING SYSTEM

    I'd definitely shoot an email to them - they seem to be very responsive from what I've seen other people report. I had to contact them for help as well.

    Which beer faucets do you prefer and why?

    That's where I ordered mine from. Hopefully here next week so I can get going on a new keezer build. You're good @petemoss @WWB is right. I just need to lighten up. Just me sticking my foot in my mouth again.

    I have perlicks now and gave reasons why I made a decision to hopefully add to the conversation. Next time I'll try smart alec comments. Maybe that'll be more helpful. :yes:

    Which beer faucets do you prefer and why?

    Voted intertap because that's what I just ordered. I've been going back and forth about ordering Perlick, Intertap, flow control or not. In the end, I ordered flow control intertaps for less than non-flow-control perlicks. Final decision was based in large part due to costs. I also watched a...
