The other thing I've noticed, and it's not a problem but something to be aware of, is that you will get inconsistent mash efficiencies depending on the grain bill. I'm now using the Chugger pump for both (I have to keep it throttled way back for mash recirculation, but it runs full-on for whirlpooling and transfer to the fermenter). It disassembles for cleaning very easily, but the liquid flow path is smaller / narrower than a Chugger and easily clogs with hop matter.
I bought the Anvil pump, even though I already had a Chugger it does a fine job with mash recirculation but it's not really powerful enough for a proper whirlpool. I do recommend using a Brew Bag inside of the malt basket (for ease of cleanup more than anything else), and I use a pump for mash recirculation and also whirlpooling at the end. My brewdays have gone from 6.5 hours (the best I ever did, and more often it was 7+) to 4.5 hours on brewday, all-in, plus about a half-hour of setup the night before (filling the water, milling the grains, getting out my other odds-n-ends to save having to do it on brewday morning. Huge upside is the aforementioned brewing inside, also so much easier to clean up afterwards, and I can fill the tank and set a timer the night before so I'm ready to mash-in as soon as I get out of bed. and even they weren't bad, just a little off from what I expected).

I went from a traditional three-vessel propane-fired rig that I had to use outdoors, weather permitting, to a 10g Foundry running at 120V that I use in my kitchen and can brew any day, any time, any weather.ġ00% game-changer, with zero impact on the quality of the beer I make (outside of the first two or three batches, where I was learning the system and how to adapt my recipes to it.
