Ok, so I have been extract brewing for a while now and I feel as though it's time for me to move on into all grain brewing. I have the finances and resources to build my own brewstand. However, I noticed different all grain brewing techniques using different brew systems like HERMS and RIMS.
Also, since there are different methods of all grain brewing, I was wondering if someone could help suggest what the best method was to start off with? I noticed a lot of single infusion brew setups, but I wanted to pick the brains of some of the more experienced all grain brewers on these forums just to make sure I take the best approach.
Thank you.
P.S. I noticed that in some brewstand designs, the mash tuns were suited with an insulation jacket to help retain the heat necessary for mashing. Some of the jackets look like black foam rubber. Any idea on where I can find something like that?
