What Anvil makes in our catalogue

Anvil Brewing Equipment, a Blichmann sister brand, is best known for the Foundry, an electric all-in-one that mashes and boils in one double-wall insulated vessel. The Foundry 10.5 with pump lists 1600 W on 120V or 2800 W on 240V, switchable, with a stainless immersion chiller in the box. The 6.5-gallon Foundry suits smaller batches and runs on 240V or on 120V through an adapter cable.

Around the Foundry, the catalogue carries Anvil's recirculation pump kit (fits the 6.5 and 10.5), a stainless immersion chiller with a 3/8 in. × 28 ft coil, and a free-standing bench capper with one-hand operation.

Who Anvil suits

  • Brewers moving from extract to all-grain who want one vessel indoors
  • Anyone without a 240V circuit today who may add one later: the Foundry switches
  • Garage brewers replacing a propane burner with electric
  • Brewers who value insulation and a simple controller over app features

On 120V the 10.5 draws about 13.3 A, so plug it into a GFCI-protected circuit with no extension cord. A 240V circuit is a job for a licensed electrician.

Alternatives from other brands

The KegLand BrewZilla Gen 4 35L adds a built-in pump and RAPT Wi-Fi on 110V. The Grainfather G30³ 110V is a compact 8-gallon system with app control. Brewer's Edge Mash and Boil is a simpler 110V option, and Clawhammer Supply's 10.5-gallon BIAB system is a 120V kettle-style build.

Compare them side by side in the brewing systems hub and plan mash water with the strike water calculator.

Before you buy

Check which Foundry listing you are looking at: some include the recirculation pump and immersion chiller, others are the bare system. Confirm the plug and cable for your outlet, and decide whether you want the 6.5 for smaller batches or the 10.5 for full 5-gallon batches.

Anvil Brewing Equipment: questions

Does the Anvil Foundry run on 120V?
Yes. The Foundry 10.5 lists 1600 W on 120V and 2800 W on 240V, switchable. The 6.5 runs on 240V or on 120V with the adapter cable, per its listing.
Can you brew 10 gallons in a Foundry 10.5?
Anvil's Q&A says the 10.5 is designed for 5-gallon (19 L) batches. For 10-gallon batches, Anvil points to the larger 18-gallon Foundry.
Does the Anvil Foundry come with a pump?
Some listings do: the Foundry 10.5 with pump includes a recirculation pump and immersion chiller. Others are sold without, and the pump kit is available separately.
What is the best alternative to the Anvil Foundry?
The KegLand BrewZilla Gen 4 (110V, built-in pump, Wi-Fi) and the Grainfather G30³ 110V are the closest all-in-ones. Brewer's Edge Mash and Boil is a simpler 110V option.
