I just started to homebrew and have so far been constrained to readymade kits. Everything you need is basically included you follow directions and boil. Eventually I see myself progressing to designing my own beers (using extracts still) and then ultimately going all grain.
Im going to do a few more kits to get used to brewing but my question is this. When I actually break away from using pre-made kits and start picking my own extracts, specialty grains, yeasts, and hops how do I go about it. I mean theres so many different types of each of these how do you know which to use in a certain situation?
