I just started partial mash brewing and love the freedom it gives. I've already got my eye on AG, but I live in an apartment with only a stove so it's harder to get any volume greater than 5 gallons to boil.
I was just wondering--what's the price point difference between Partial and AG? I just spent a fair amount on my last batch b/c it had 6 lbs. of LDME. I see that most of the partials have about that. I spend $15 per/3lbs for DME at my LHBS. I did some checking around, and that's about as cheap as I could get, once shipping and handling added in. Add my grains and hops on top and I spent about $40-$45.
So is AG cheaper? Are there good Partial recipes that don't call for $30 worth of DME?
