Ah, thought you were referencing my statement to talk about newbie vs experienced.
Id have to disagree a bit with your criteria. A newbie could make a bunch of extract or partial mash kits, expect them to be good, and see them come out well. But they could still be a newbie- just a fleshy robot following a program.
Id say “experience” should require enough knowledge to truly do it yourself. Build the recipe and then brew it.
When you can do that, with the expectation of quality, you’re experienced.
Not trying to put down extract brewing, partial mash, etc. Just saying that if you use a kit, you are actually expecting someone elses beer to be good, i.e. whoever made the kit recipe.
