I literally just found out about the Compact version a short time ago, and it ticks a LOT of boxes for me. (Currently using an Anvil Foundry 10g, which has been giving me a few problems lately.) I immediately went to do research on it, and I'm finding surprisingly little info. Short Circuited...

[ Originally posted in the Beer Tool Pro forum, which appears to be as dead as the software :( ] It's been probably 7 or 8 years since I've set up equipment profiles and recipe templates, but I picked up an Anvil Foundry and am setting up a new recipe template (which is essentially...

I'm fearful of the answer, but here goes... I get a lot of condensation in my kegerator, enough that two EvaDry units can't keep up. Every so often I have to pull the kegs out and ShopVac standing liquid @ the bottom. The last time I did this, I was dismayed to see the lining of the freezer...

So, I have a water filter system for brewing, but I don't brew often enough to keep the filter installed in the cannister between brews. (Between available time and kegerator capacity I typically brew once every two months, sometimes three, and almost never more frequently than once a month.) I...

I'm an outdoor propane brewer, but I'm thinking of adding an all-in-one system (most likely the Anvil Foundry) to allow me to brew when the weather is bad / too cold / too hot, as well as maybe sneak in some weeknight batches. How do you guys like having one of these as a second / backup...

Does anyone happen to know the McMaster-Carr part no., or just the actual ID / OD / WD specs for the o-ring? I would just order one from MoreBeer, but the o-ring is $1.99 and the shipping is $8. I'd rather add this to my next McMaster-Carr order, but obviously I want to be sure I'm ordering the...

pH meter newbie here. Premade buffer solution is more economical and convenient than the single-use pouches you mix yourself, but I worry that I won't use it often enough to go through it before it expires. About how long do they last once opened?

So this blueberry mel has gone from 1.160 to 1.102 in a little over a week. Not terribly slow, but at this point I'm not sure what to do about the cap as I thought it would be further along at this point. Time-wise this is about the time I would stop stirring on a regular mead, but there are...

I've seen several different SNA protocols recommended across various sources: 2g SNA once per day, four total additions. 2g SNA once every other day, four total additions. Same as the above, but the fourth addition based on gravity not the calendar (and even for this, there are two...

Going to make my first melomel with frozen fruit -- in this case, blueberries -- and I was wondering if you guys generally recommend any specific processing? In particular, do you do anything to attempt to sanitize the fruit, and do you try to mash / smush the fruit before adding it to the must...

I emailed them as the malt analysis sheets are not posted on their website. Here's what they sent me (which I was able to plug into Beer Tools Pro, which calculated the fields which were not provided here, I would assume Beersmith to do the same): many thanks for buying our malt! Please find...

Screenshots of Bru'n Water and the recipe below. Hoping to get a sanity check on my water adjustments for the rye robust porter I plan to brew on Sunday. I'm still learning about water adjustments, but this seems to make sense to me -- I'm not adding a ton of salts, the additions I'm making...

Since I started kegging I have never naturally carbonated a keg, always force-carbed, but I’d like to try it out. I’m on the understanding that if you have a full keg you need to use less priming sugar due to the lack of headspace. I’d also like to make bottling for competitions simpler, so...

My apologies if this has been answered before, but: what do the macros in Bru'n Water do? I am using this in Excel on a Mac, which doesn't support any of the macros and I get the error when I open the doc. What features (if any) will not work without the macro support?

... can anyone offer any other advice or insight on how to get it to work consistently? I've tried every mounting orientation, every priming method, hot water, cold water (as a test; pumping cold water is useless to me) and the damn thing still loses its prime if the breeze changes direction...
