BC = awesome. Buying a barley crusher and bulk grains enables you to
1. Save money on grain (eventually

)
2. Brew whenever the hell you want to
3. Control the quality of your crush
I think #2 is worth the cost alone, and now that I buy bulk grain my cost for 2-row is about $0.60/lb. The more I brew, the close I get to breaking even on the crusher!
