Hey guy's! So I am a complete, haven't even taken baby steps, newbie at the brewing game. I am really excited I found a community like this on the Web, so thanks to all that are contributing to this.
I have been reading up on the general process of brewing and am really excited to get started. A family member bought me a small, basic starter kit. Along with an extract ingredient kit to kick things off.

But what I really want to do is what I've seen called an "all grain" brew based on a "Bells Two Hearted" clone recipe I found on these forums. BTH being my favorite ipa I've had the pleasure of enjoying thus far. So I guess what I'm really getting at here are these questions...
What are the differences between doing an extract ingredient kit and an all grain recipe? And what additional equipment will I need based off of the hyperlink I posted, to achieve an all grain brew? And of course, are there any suggestions in any of the brewing processes, all grain and extract, that any of you experienced brews have for a fresh start kind of a guy like me? Any input you guys can lay down will be greatly appreciated in all ways.
Thanks for reading my post and thanks for your time givin.
