I spent about $50 on stuff for my AG setup which I would not have spent if I went extract. Really, I made a mash tun out of a 20 dollar cooler and $30 on parts from home depot. I don't see why everyone doesn't do AG and why the extract side of the hobby exists at all.
And the grains are so much cheaper than buying tons of extract! It's not really hard either, just have some DME on hand in case you get low efficiency.
Anyway, just something to think about.
