I already built on one stub in the wiki.
I started with a 5gal kettle, and a $65 beginners kit from the LHBS. Then I bought a glass carboy and I was in steep/ extract and eventually PM business.
Then for $6.99 I bought a nylon mesh bag big enough for my brew kettle and I made the jump to all grain.
First time I hit 57%. Second time I allowed for the amount of water my grains were going to soak up, and I allowed for water evaporation during the boil.
Can I have a banana for 83% brewhouse please?
So I found the "budget all grain equipment" article in the wiki and put what I know in it.
I figure next time I brew I can whip out the camera and do it up right. If you aren't willing to chop up my text in the wiki could you post your nylon mesh bag tips in here so your knowledge can be assimilated?
thanks
For my next trick I will put a false bottom in my bottling bucket....
