Hopefully, you’ll receive some input here from other members. In retrospect, for an AIO unit, I’d consider the Brewzilla 9.5G since I’ve started brewing Belgian Dark Strong Ales with a higher grain bill. The fact is, if I had a larger home and a dedicated brew space, I’d probably go for The Clawhammer 10G Unit at $899. That said, I don’t feel deprived and I’m making really good beer in my small condo kitchen. On the M&B, you set the temp for the mash and to maintain it, it will drop 4-5 degrees before kicking back up to the selected temp - not that precise. Also, the temp control is more precise on the Foundry. I like that they improved it by moving the display to the top of the unit as that would be more convenient to my bad back - although that seems less protected from a boil over. That said, I wish I could’ve spent the extra $$ on the Foundry. I really like it at the price point - it was $299 with the pump at William’s Brewing at the time and it has been around a relatively long time with (as I understand) a history of reliability. I bought the M&B with the built-in recirc pump last November and had been comparing it to the Foundry. Have any of you compared the three systems before purchase or have tested/owned more than one of these units.
10.5 GALLON ANVIL FOUNDRY ALL IN ONE BREWING SYSTEM FULL
Highest volume capacity allowing full volume mash.

Not sure if that’s because it’s new or very reliable? Assuming with Blichman ties customer service and quality would not be an issue. Mid price point for what I’m looking at and mid volume basket as well.Īnvil Foundry. Makes me nervous if there are reliability issues with system.īrewzilla. Basically non existent from what I’ve read. Limit on volume and not great customer service. Right now, per my research, I’ve been influenced to believe: Any extreme benefits for one over the others or extreme pitfalls to make me stay away. Can anyone speak to durability of the electronics on the units (feel if that fails system is worthless) Focused on price, want to recirc mash and whirlpool when chilling with my own pump (no pump needed with purchase). Plan would be to still use propane system for big beers or large volume.ĭeciding between Mash and Boil, Brewzilla 9.5 gallon and Anvil Foundry 10.5. Been doing as much research as possible for a supplement to my large propane biab kettle setup.
