I'll pass on this for now but thank you. After brewing on my system yesterday, I think I'll stick with it a little longer

Looking to trade my Anvil Foundry 6.5 system (with pump kit and SS immersion chiller) + $100, for a 10.5 version. I would really prefer to trade vs selling it at this point but I'm open to selling it too. If you just want to buy it: 6.5 Anvil Foundry with pump kit and SS immersion chiller...

If you're willing to ship, would you do be willing to do $50 shipped for the mill?

I've got an offer if someone wants to split it

In! Thanks for the giveaway! Go Cubs go!

Bump. Make me an offer

Haven't used these in probably a year. I had a leak somewhere is my system a while back and think these might be the culprits but I never got to the bottom of it.You would likely want to check for leaks and tighten whatever down. I feel like the prices are fair for potential leaks(s)...

My comment wasn't directed at you. I fully agree with what you have said.

You're all over the place and contradicting yourself. Of course if you change one part of the brewing process, you'll change then end product but full volume mashing takes that into consideration by adding more grain to compensate to come up with the exact same product in the end. Which you...

I guess I'm doing more of a pour-over than full on fly sparging. I haven't tried dunking but I feel like it couldn't be much easier than what I'm doing. Thanks!

That makes sense. I usually don't disturb the grain bed but I wind up with fine efficiency. I guess I just wanted to make sure I am not missing something. I've been struggling with some missing points post boil so I though that may be the culprit. Thanks!

Here's an idea: could the concentrated amount of non-sugar particulate matter in the post boil wort be skewing the numbers? Especially in a bigger beer, it might make sense that there's extra stuff in there that a lighter beer may not have. If you get an accurate reading the following day, maybe...

I currently brew ~2 gallon batches on the stove top using a mesh bag to mash in. To sparge, I put my bag into a steamer basket that rests on top of a SS rack, over my kettle. This allows me to fly sparge and I don't need a pulley or anything. While I previously liked this idea a lot, I recently...

This has happened to me several times and I'm still wondering why . Last Sunday, in fact, I hit all of my numbers perfectly up until the OG. Volumes and specific gravities were spot on otherwise. I didn't take a reading the next day but that's an interesting bit. I figured maybe I mis-measured...

It's amazing how many "beer bars" poorly treat their beers. I've received weird looks when asking for a glass too many times to count at places that are supposedly amazing beer bars.

Exactly. Drink your beer out of whatever you want but just know that, generally speaking, if you are drinking from a frosted mug, you are losing flavor. Yes, drinking an icy BMC on a hot day is refreshing but if you are drinking your IPAs at 33 degrees, you're wasting beer.

Genius!

What if you use one of those gaskets for an airlock hole on a bucket lid? I wonder if that would seal if you crammed one on your bottling wand. Otherwise, they make bungs meant for 12oz bottles that would likely work.

It may also help to completely submerge your keg and manifold (if you have one) in water. If you're losing a tank in a day, you might be able to see a pretty apparent stream of CO2 coming from the leak. Good luck!
