Foundry is much better than the Brewzilla. Out of the box 120/240 capable, and the external pump is a life saver to service if clogging during a brew session. Got mine on a BF sale years ago. If you are on the fence about buying one, just do it!
I had someone telling me they really wanted a BrewZilla, and it is hard for me to comprehend especially at 30% off for an Anvil Foundry with the 120/240 switch, no neoprene jacket needed, external pump, and those are the just the obvious items. He did mention having an older one and just wanted a newer version of the same, but still it is a hard to comprehend.
I think they had that on sale earlier this year. Sadly, I don't see if on the Black Friday list unless you are getting one of the BrewEasy system. Maybe they will drop a deal on it again after Cyber Monday and before Xmas.
@BitterRealityBrewing You're absolutely right! We featured our RipTide™ Brewing Pumps during our Black Friday Preview Sale in September. While they’re not currently on sale, we always strive to bring great deals throughout the year, so keep an eye out for future promotions.
Can anyone answer this for me? I want to get the Anvil 18 gallon Foundry so I can work with larger grain bills. Do they supply an adapter so I can run the 240v power off a normal plug……or do I need to get a different plug installed first so I can use this equipment? Love your channel. Thanks
I'm pretty sure the 18.5 is only 240v (240V Operation 6-20P plug 4000W 17A for Faster Heating & Better Boils). The 10.5 and 6.5 both have the Patented Dual Voltage Switchable Between 120V 1600W, 13A and 240V 2800W, 12A.
Options. If your wall outlet is 240v but using a 20 amp type plug (looks normal but one leg is turned sideways) then you are set as you can use that. If you don't have a 240v currently available in your house, you can do what I did for almost 2 years at my last apartment, and run an adapter off with an extension cord from where your drier plugs in. I will tell you it is a LOT cheaper to make your own extension cord by buying the raw cable from a local hardware store and then attaching the correct connectors on each end. I'm not an electrician, but it was pretty easy to do and you can look up plenty of legit guides to walk you through any concerns or questions in that regard.
LOL! Nope, just promoting a great company with great products, like MoreBeer! and soon you'll see a video promoting a sale at Spike Brewing. Here is a little back story if you are interested - They are in Lafayette, Indiana, and I'm in Jacksonville, FL. As of Dec 14th I'll have been brewing beer for 10 years, starting with 1 gallon batches and shortly moving to GrainFather Connect (replaced by the G30). I had so many issues with the GrainFather, that GrainFather eventually sent me an entire unit as a replacement. I was so frustrated, even with the new unit having problems (supposedly resolved in the G30), that I sold the units and purchased my first Anvil Foundry 10.5. After using the Anvil Foundry for a few years, I purchased a 2nd one, which arrived with a big dent. Anvil Brewing went out of its way to make it right, and shortly after that, Blichmann Brewing, their sister company, sent me a free brewing system to review. (I'm an IT Infrastructure Engineer by day, and I did a ton of research before making the Anvil Foundry my go-to brewing system.) Earlier this year, I was invited to visit them in Lafayette. I was blown away as the entire company operated like an extended family. I'm 55 years old and have never been lucky enough to work for a company that treats all of its employees like family. It was a big eye-opener to see just how great the company was, and you could hear and see just how much they care for their customers, too.

@@preuc3367 I actually got invited to go visit them again with a few other Beer Brewing TH-camrs in December. So I'll be there for 1 day and then my wife is turning it into a mini vacation in Chicago. Yes, in December...I'm going to freeze to death. (I'm a Floridian.)

So glad that you love your system. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, to you and yours!
Was hoping for that riptide discount ;)
