  • Wow are you me? I’ve been considering selling my equipment the last few months for this exact same reason. An 8 hour brew day isn’t in the cards for me anymore with a 2 year old. I hadn’t thought of swapping back to extracts. This would shave a few hours off the brew for sure. I made about 20 different recipes using extracts several years ago and noticed that the best ones tended to be lighter. I don’t have any recipes since extract brewing is rather straightforward but after being spoiled with all grain for years I’d suggest sticking with ambers, cream ales, or similar. Always add a bit more hops than you would with all grain since extracts in large quantities can add a tininess that you want to control for. Thanks for the idea too!
