re: Homebrewing: Extract to All-Grain

I invested in kegging and fermentation temperature control long before I switched to all-grain. I'd recommend looking at those two first. Kegging allowed me to pump out more beer and my fermentation temperature helped me nail down consistency in flavors - which then allowed me to experiment with different things.

Yeah, i have fermentation control down. I have a chest freezer i converted into a fermentation chamber.

Kegging is also on the to do list. It's just finding the space to place the kegerator that is the problem.

. Boiling 2.5 gallons on the stove is a lot different than 7 gallons on a propane burner.

i'm doing 3 gallons on a propane burner, but i see what you are saying.

Austinhomebrew liquid extract was always my favorite.

Yeah, these are my go-to guys for brewing material. I did go to marcello's for this batch, which i am not too concerned with, because they are usually out of the malt extract i was using.

My other choice for brew stores would be northern brewer.
