I know the eventual goal of homebrewers is to move from extract brewing to all grain. Is this the case for most people on HBT?
I find myself completely satisfied making extract kits. Of course, I've only made 5 batches so far. I have a neighbor that does all grain, and it takes him entire day to go through the steps. He says he does it, because he wants full control of all his ingredients. Maybe my palette isn't sophisticated enough, but I notice very little difference in quality of one of my extract brews versus his all grain. I haven't notice the infamous extract twang (yet). Maybe it's because I've been spoiled by Austin Homebrew's kits?
Just seeing what everyone's opinion is on this.
