I've made good beers from kits, from AG, and from a combination of the two.
3 or 4 months ago I made a 40 litre brew with a 3kg kit, 1kg DME and a quick stove top mash (20 min mash and 20 min boil is enough) and it took about 2.5 hours. I made 4 different beers with it, mostly using different yeasts but also hop teas. Bit of a faff, but two x 20L would be simple. Good beers they were, AG quality.
But I've been brewing a long time, I have a good idea what kits I like, and how to add to them with grain etc.
