I've put the screws in so that the head of the screw is inside the malt pipe. That way, if you use a grain bag inside the malt pipe, you don't rip the grain bag. Stainless steel lock washers help secure the screws better...no loosening of the screws and brackets.
Hey Justin! I ordered the same Foundry last fall so I could brew inside during the winter but it wasn't delivered until May! So I haven't used it yet but I've been collecting a ton of information. One interesting bit I turned up is that the water between the malt pipe and the kettle wall does not get pulled down and into the recirculation flow. It just sits there and will never come into contact with the grain until you lift the malt pipe at the end of the mash. This will lower your post mash gravity. A lot of brewers have been left scratching their heads wondering why their pre boil readings are lower than their post mash readings taken just a moment before. The solution is to lift that malt pipe once or maybe twice during the mash to get all that water mixed together. I may skip the malt pipe altogether ans use a BIAB bag... or source a SS mesh basket that will fit the Anvil.

Nice, thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try!
Instructions?? We don’t need no stinking’ instructions…. I’ve missed the “Uh’s”. 🤣
I usually do 😂
Not a great. Video didn't even read instructions, is guessing a lot. Lighting is terrible. Angles are terrible. Just skip
😂 thanks for watching
Good day! fellow~super.best edtiing!👽
I hate bots
