Do any of you All Grain Brewers ever Brew Extract???

[ABVIBUSRM]

Absolutely..If i want to brew a quick beer extract with some steeping grains..Beer comes out great..I have saw some youtube videos of people saying you cant brew good beer with extract and that is pure BS I started with extract and always made good beer..Do i think AG is better quality? yes i do but extract makes fine beer granted you use fresh ingredients..The one guy on youtube "take some advice" needs advice haha

Of my 80+ brews, Ive only done extract once. It was for my fruit lambics I have aging right now. The only reason I decided to go extract was because of time contraints that weekend, but wanted to brew.

Here's an example

No idea how much shipping is though. My LHBS has 50# of 2-row for about $40. Sounds like your LHBS isn't giving a bulk discount...

I have to agree they aren't selling at bulk prices. Very frustrating.

The shipping in you're example (as every one I've seen online) is $26. Which puts me back in the range of not bulk prices.

I want to buy bulk stuff but it's just not working out for me and as far as I know the closest group buy is to far away to make it worth it.

Just wish there was some way to get bulk prices around here.

Another reason I do an extract here and there, no real cost savings so if time is the issue for me I do extract instead of trying a shorter mash schedule or a small batch type thing.

Talk about being overly defensive.

No, not trolling. Never even said the beer was bad. Stating fact and asking a legitimate question.

You be the troller by using "fake brewing" when it was never stated or implied.

Partial brewing? Maybe that, but certainly not fake.

I guess just remarkably condescending then.
