As planned, today I went and bought a 10.5 Anvil Foundry from my LHBS, with pump.  They said it's the most recent build, bright and shiny straight out of the box at MSRP ($469), with 10% shop discount for members of our city's homebrewers' club.  With two bottle brushes and 8.9% WA Sales Tax it still came in under pre-tax list price.  I don't plan to brew anytime soon since I have lots of beer on hand, but am happy to be a proud owner.  Planning to set it up and check it this coming weekend.  I considered getting the smaller version (2.5-3 gal batches) but this larger size will suit me better, as I enjoy sharing beer with friends.

Got the Saison kegged this afternoon.  It was actually less of a pain in the ass than I remembered.  FG was 1.002.

Nice, fermenting in the 10 gallon corny. I'm jealous.

What is going into the bucket?

It's just the CO2 that is being displaced from the serving keg as it fills up with beer.  The bucket is filled with the iodine sanitizer that had previously been pushed out of the serving keg.
