Hi all, I've done three batches on my 120V 10.5g Anvil, all BIAB. I keep falling short on OG. I'll use my most recent brew (here) as an example. Expected OG 1.053; actual 1.037. A few notes: 60 minute mash at 149-151. I did not sparge. I recirculated the mash with a pump. I gave the mash a...

I've heard Hook Norton brewery holds their water profile pretty close to the vest. Has anyone been able to approximate it?

Just returned from Switzerland and spent some time in Gimmelwald, birthplace of Schwarz Mönch. This beer is amazing. Has anyone developed a recipe?

I have a clawhammer biab spray valve (https://www.clawhammersupply.com/collections/brewing-accessories/products/biab-spray-valve). Anvil sells tri clamp bulk head fittings for the foundry (both 1.5 and 2 inch) (https://www.anvilbrewing.com/2-0-tri-clamp-bulkhead-fitting-for-foundry-lid). How can...

I found a box in my basement with two all-grain kits from two years ago. Everything (grain, hops, etc.) never opened. Do we think its still good to use?

I've got a gift card at Northern Brewer that is enough to buy their Stainless Steel Wort Pump... or I can save up a little over a hundred more and get the RipTide. Would it really be worth it though? Looking for advice.

Anyone have a BIAB recipe for Hook Norton 12 Days?

If you're brewing small batches on the 10 gal Foundry with the small batch adapter, what kind of efficiencies are you seeing? Any other issues? Looking for pros and cons before purchasing either the 10 or the 6.5 Foundry.

I want to ferment a 2 gallon batch of cider but only have a 5 gallon bucket fermentor available. Is that a problem?

Looking for a recommendation: I want to brew small batches (1-2.5 gal) in a 5.5 gal Anvil kettle. I plan to use a countertop induction burner but don't want to spend any more $ on one than I need to. What wattage do you recommend for small batches like that, and is there a specific brand you...

I may be making a trip overseas in a year or so. I'd love to visit some Trappist Abbeys that have breweries on site and offer tours. Any you're aware of or have been to?

Thread title says it all. I'll need to go with one of those options for brewing indoors. If I don't go with the Solo I'll go with the 10.5 gal Foundry. Both options are within reach financially so just trying to discern pros and cons, especially of the Steam Slayer. Anyone using it? What do you...

I'm going to be converting part of my basement (20x20ish) for brewing. I'll only be using a 10.5 gal Anvil Foundry for the boil, unless I'm using an induction plate to do some small batch test brews. I don't want to spend any more $$ then I have to for ventilation. Any recommendations?

Can anyone recommend a less expensive glycol chiller then the ones that run 4+ fermenters at once? I usually just have one batch going at a time, max would be just two.
