Recirculating the wort during the mash can clarify the wort and homogenize the mash temperature through the mash basket,
increasing mash efficiency. With the optional Anvil Recirculation Kit, this becomes very easy. Follow the assembly instructions
shown on page 4. Before turning on the pump, always wait 10 minutes after doughing-in for the grain to completely absorb
water and for trapped air to escape; this helps to prevent a stuck mash. Open the drain valve completely to prime the pump.
Then, turn on the pump and close off the pinch valve to reduce the flow of the pump.
Caution: Do not attempt to pump wort at full speed or a stuck mash condition may occur.
Recirculation During The Mash
It is very important to “rake the mash” every 15 minutes during the mash while recirculating. This is accomplished by stirring just
the top 1/3 of the grain bed inside the malt basket. It is especially important to use rice hulls in the mash (1/2 pound per
10 pounds of grain) if the grain bill includes wheat, rye, oats, or other husk-less grain.
Important
: If the wort level raises to the top of the mash basket, the flow rate is too high or the mash bed is
compacting. To fix this turn off the flow, rake the entire mash to break up compacted grain and reset the flow rate to a
slower setting. Allow 10 minutes for the mash to settle before restarting recirculation.

After startup, the Foundry™’s default temperature is set to 39°F, and the power is
set to 0%. Press the F/C button to change from Fahrenheit and Celsius. To set the
temperature, press the + “plus” or – “minus” button. The temperature will begin
flashing. Press and hold the + or – button to quickly advance the values. Next,
press the percent power button “%PWR”. The Power percentage number will
begin flashing. Press and hold the + or – button to reach the desired percent
power button. To heat water at the fastest rate, use 100% power. To boil off 1
gallon of water per hour in 240V or ½ gallon per hour at 120V, keep the power
set to 100%. You can slow down the heat rate or boil off rate as desired with the
percent of power function. When the temperature is set to 212 °F or 100°C, the
display will switch to BOIL.
Warning: Always remove the lid before bringing the wort to boil. Boiling
wort can cause severe burns and damage to equipment. Do not set the unit
to boil with the lid installed.

To set the delay timer for the Foundry™, first fill the unit with water to the desired level. Set the temperature and power of the Foundry™.
Press and hold the %PWR for 3 seconds and 1h will appear. Release the buttons and use the + to increase the time delay by 1 hour
increments. Once you have the desired delay time, press the %PWR or give the Foundry™ 3 seconds for the time to locked in.
Important: Do not set the Delay Timer with grain in the Foundry™. Only use the delay timer for heating water. To cancel the
delay, cycle the power (turn off and on).
Tip: To quickly go from 0% to 100%, simply press the minus “-” button. Similarly, to go from 39°F (4°C) to 212°F (100°C) ,
simply press the - button.
