    New Anvil Bucket Fermentors

    As I was just typing a reply for this thread (now deleted) I received a email from Jacob . He apologized for the damaged unit and sent me a tracking number for a new bucket fermentor . I am now pretty happy with the CS of the Anvil company. They are making it right. I was probably being a...

    Ordered a 7.5g Anvil on Black Friday and it showed up on 12/7/19. Upon opening the box I noticed a huge dent in the side of the bucket ( all outer cardboard packaging looked good ,no damage). I have emailed, sent a service request (on the Anvil website) and tried calling multiple times ( phone...

    Airlock

    I did a ice bath in the sink for 30 minutes . Never checked my temp before dumping into fermentation bucket. After I checked the OG I decided to give the wort a taste . It was at or below room temp. Certainly not 100 degrees or even warm . After this I sprinkled the yeast on top of the wort...

    Airlock

    These are great replies and I thank you all . Day 3 of fermentation - Airlock liquid has remained steady since adding the vodka. Not as much co2 bubbles coming up through the airlock and not seeing any major foaming inside the bucket . Not wanting to open my bucket, just crossing fingers that...

    Airlock

    Other than moving bucket from brewing area (kitchen) to fermenting area (basement) that was it . I had a 2 degree basement temp fluctuation from last night - this morning . Last night before bed I had some starsan bubbling out of the airlock , not much but a few bubbles coming out from under...

    Airlock

    Did my first boil yesterday. Everything seemed pretty straight forward after watching some videos and reading through the included instructions (Hanks hefeweizen extract kit ) . After attaching the airlock it started to bubble fairly quick. Last night the airlock was 3/4 full on one side . This...

    20% off Anvil Foundry and more.

    I think Anvil has 20% off right now on their website. Use code BLACKFRIDAY19 . I used the code on friday for the 7.5g bucket fermentor, got it for $103. w/free shipping . Seemed like a fair price. code should work on the foundry also.

    Thanks for the warm welcome! what did you order? extract or all grain? I chose hanks hefeweizen extract kit with a brewing kit I purchased. I also purchased a Private rye brown ale extract kit. I will run them side by side , one in a bucket and the other in the Anvil fermentor .
