I have done searches and I have been watching the AG forum I just have a few questions that I cant seem to find the answer to elsewhere.
First off, Im loving homebrewing. I mentioned to my dad that I was homebrewing and he about died. He mentioned he used to want to get into it but never got around to it and wants to help me out however he can. I started talking to him about how I eventualy wanted to go to all grain and he said why not just do it now. Well, thats a pretty damn good point. Why not? Ive only made 1 homebrew so far and it was extract. Ive been reading about all grain for a long time and some things are still confusing me, but thats what google/HBT is for .
So, does anyone think it could be "too early" to get into all grain? Should I stick to extract for a few more months to learn more about brewing as a whole?
I have a 30qt pot right now I use as a boil kettle, I was planning on using that to heat up my sparge water and the initial water that goes in the MLT. I am planning on a cooler for an MLT but still confused about why get a false bottom over a mesh screen? And I am making 5 gal batches and dont plan on changing the size I make for a while so I was thinking just getting a 10gal+ cooler for my MLT.
And what is the advantage of getting a HERMS setup?
Thank you for helping another lost noob.
