Hey guys, Im Rick from Mt Prospect Ill and I am going to take the jump from buying kegs for my Perlick to making my own beer and putting this into those 5 gallon kegs (old soda kegs?). I did post my first in beginners. Yeah I need to take a drive to a home brew store and get the hands down deal. Is it not a good idea to skip extracts to grain?

I am just starting and skipping extract. Extract seems like cheating.
