I'm sure some folks have come right out of the gate doing Partial Mash, or even AG for that matter as their first brewing experiences.
Does anyone have any input as to pros and cons of diving in head first? Do you think you a new brewer or someone first starting out should start out with extracts? Or is it like anything else, you're only as good as what you're comfortable with?
I understand you want to do a simple process to begin with so you get the hang of the process, sanitization etc.
The reason I'm asking is I really want to try Partial Mash and I don't think it sounds terribly diffficult. I think it seems more like "real brewing" because you're actually using grains and such instead of just syrup or powder, ya know?
