Ok good point. Let me go do more research and come back with better questions.

My system for all-grain has been 2 10 gallon igloo water coolers and a 10 gallon stainless kettle. I got the kettle with brewmometer and ball valve for around $100 a long time ago at brewstock in New Orleans.
The igloo coolers cost me about $90-100 a piece. The conversion kit for the cooler to convert to a mash tun (false bottom and 2 valves - 1 for the mash tun, 1 for teh sparge tank) was another $100.

So my all-in price for my all-grain setup was about $300. But, this was 7 or 8 years ago. Equipment has gotten cheaper as the hobby has grown a bit.
