Grain Recipe Kits

[Nufee]

I'm new to recipe/grain brewing, I've only done the extract kits and festa brew kits.
Thinking of starting a grain kit this weekend and wondering where start.
Is the "Best Case Recipe Kit" a good start?
Thoughts? Recommendations? Procedures?

Best Case, Everwood kits and online recipes are all great. Do some solid recipes so you can get your process down. Figure out what you like and don't like in your process and ingredients and go from there. Brew with a few persons in your area and see what system suits you the best.

I started with simple all-grain kits to get the process down. Just 2-row, one hop and yeast. My very first one tasted way better than any Brew Canada kit I ever made. I find the all-grain kits from brew shops are well put together.

Are you looking at going to "All Grain" kits or Extract with steeping grains? Best Case and Everwood Avenue Brewshop both have great extract with steeping grain kits and are great stepping stone from Festa and extract only kits. As Woody says, find something you like, get your procedures and sanitation process down pat and experiment with ingredients.

I second the everwood grain kits, I did a few one gallon ones on my stove before doing the group buy thing and getting a grainfather.

I also second trying to piggyback on other people's brew days - I'm sure most of the forum would gladly host a noobie on a brew day sometime if you want to see how other people's process works.

Thanks for all the info guys. Guess I'm heading to Everwood tomorrow for a peek.
I'm assuming it's the same process for kegging afterwards?

Correct kegging beer doesn't change. The process of how you make the wort with extract or all grain is just the extra steps/control you have over the process and time it takes.
