Hi all,
I've been brewing for a few years with a friend - always using malt extract - and we've done some pretty good beer. I'm wanting now to move in to AG and want to pick up some of my own kit to get things started. I'm wondering about what the best way of getting started is on a relatively small budget of around ã150.
I've read a bit on BIAB and this seems interesting, as I only have limited space and these kits look ok

However, I wonder if i'm better with a separate boiler and mash tun. Maybe even a stovetop boiler as i've read about various issues with the electric boilers maintaining a rolling boil.
I suppose the question is whether i'm better focusing on a good quality boiler than I can initially use for BIAB, before maybe getting a mash tun later on, or whether something like the full BIAB setup i've posted is going to keep me going for a while regardless.
Thanks.
