How long did you extract brew before switching to all grain, either in number of batches or number of years?
I ask this becasue the topic came up in a conversation with wifey about my brewing endeavors. You see, I have been extract brewing for 16 years. I dare say I have the process about as perfected as I need it to be and I am constantly building new tools or upgrading equipment. I have often thought of switching to all grain, but have never really been motivated to take that step.....until now. So, I thought I'd poll the masses to help arm myself for the forthcoming conversation about why I need to spend more money and take up more space for brewing.
I basically need to confirm my comment to my wife that I am the ONLY person in the country who has extract brewed for 16 years without switching to all grain.
I am also a DIY'er and have no idea how to take small steps.
Thank you in advance.
