Gonna be shopping for equipment to start all-grain brewing this weekend. Will probably roll my own lauter tun, but I need to get a much bigger brew kettle and maybe look into grain mills as well.

I’ve done partial-grain mashes for a while, but am going to take the all-grain plunge.

Hope you find everything you need! I don’t have the extra $ to put more into the equipment I have right now.

Do yourself a favor, plan for 10 gallon batches now. I look back and wish I had gone straight to 10. I wasted a lot of time and effort on 5 gallon batches before moving up and wish I had skipped the whole 5 gallon system.

When you can brew twice as much for an extra 90 minutes its worth every moment. Pitch 2 different yeasts and make 2 different brews !

Just my 2 cents and 31 years homebrewing experience.

Cheers,
