Hi all
this is my 1st post on AHB, about my 1st AG!
I have been lurking on this forum for about 10 months, but haven't needed to post yet, as just about everything i have needed to know about brewing can be easily found on this forum!
I started brewing about 12 months ago, and have gone from kit & kilo, to kits & bits, to extract, and finally, to the holy grail of all grain, since then.
the main thing i wanted to say was that ag is the way to go. i've only done one so far, and as can be expected, not everything goes to plan. I didn't quite reach my target OG, and was a bit worried all the way to the keg, but OMG, the malt aroma & flavour I got from my 1st batch of all grain beer was unreal! no more extract for me. Thanks to all the useful info i have learned from this forum (all you have to do is search)!
Yes, I have a long way to go, but I just want to encourage everyone that is procrastinating about going ag (like i did), just give it a go, its easier than you think.
