IM looking into buying a grain mill and was wondering how much money those if you who buy bulk actually saved? What is the average cost of a 5.5 gallon batch?

Also, don't forget about buying hops in bulk. Believe it or not, but you can also make IPAs very cheaply. Keep in contact with your LHBS (get on their email list) as mine always has certain sales depending on their stock (e.g., I recently bought 50 lbs of white wheat for $32 as they had too much on hand).

right now im buying my grains and hops by the recipe, i usually try to reuse my yeast, and its costing me from 24 - 40 $ a batch, so i think its would be a worth while investment to get a grain mill, and start buying bulk.
