I started with kit beers then through HBT-learning graduated to extract with specialty grains. Next, I am working towards all grain. That being said, the engineer in me likes to learn new things, but I'm not sure how long I'd stick with AG if it can take upwards of eight hours to brew. Definitely, in the initial stages, the excitement of the newness and learning curve will make the time fly, but I fear that I will work back towards extract to save time (in life, all we really have is time, and there isn't a lot of it in a lifetime!) after some unspecified time. Then I'd sell all the accumulated AG gear, likely at a big dollar loss, and return to three-hour extract/specialty batches.
Am I insane, or have others gone through this, or at least this thought process?
