Thanks McKnuckle and Trogdor! Debating on ordering the NB pump or just going with the recirc kit.

I have seen people mention they use it during chilling, but was just thinking in terms of additional wear and tear on high temp usage.

I happened to be looking at the Norther Brewer pump and it referenced a temperature rating of up to 240F. Does anyone know what the temp rating on the Anvil pump is?

EXACTLY! The other thing is that if there are only 2 hooks and its leaning to one side, that and the center of gravity would appear to be higher which would make it more apt to tipping over.

Agreed. Its amazing howmany other companies do the exact opposite and wonder why they loose customer base.

Heard back from Anvil...the welded feet/wings on the malt basket that rest on the ring are gone on the new models and there are screw on brackets...ring no longer needed. Check out picture 4 on their website for the 10.5 gallon unit. Not sure how the malt basket would fit inside the boil...

Yes! You are correct! Tons of good info! My GF always sends a few jabs my way...when I go down a rabbit hole of content it's usually over beer and/or brewing, smoking meat, cars or music...she just shakes her head and says nothing some days. Lol😂

Thanks for the kick in the pants...sometimes I need it! Lol I'd be curious to see what the solution is. Only because I'm the curious type.

First off...to all who have posted thank you for all your findings and info...I've spend roughly the last week reading through the 32 pages of content thus far...we'll see I can retain all the info. My LHBS has a unit in stock with the top mounted controller...however, I've seen it for a while...

Was just outside and saw one of these guys on the deck next to one one of my plants

Thanks for sharing!

That is seriously a killer harvest! Between my Chinook and Challanger, I've got a little more than 6 oz dry and they are 3rd year plants, with not much left on the bine!

13 oz...Thats an awesome harvest! Looking forward to hearing how the brew turns out after carbing

If it's not over, it looks like it's starting to fall

Looks like high krausen is over, but the airlock is still bubbling pretty good (kind of hard to tell in the photo). Going to let it sit for a couple more days before packaging.

Think I'm going to let it sit a few days after the airlock is dead, package and cold crash for a couple days, then see how it turned out.

This was around 2PM today

:lol:

We shall see how this goes. Tweaked the recipe as seen below. Brewed it up today. Made a 2 liter starter last night, decanted a bit more than half and pitched the rest into the wort. Set the inkbird to 70*F (dead middle of the recommended temp to get a clean profile and shoved it in the...

Welcome to the community @Ardelean ! What beers did you brew? I have a copy of Joy of Homebrewing and I've got comments and notes in one all over the place. I use it frequently!
