I tried the all grain way once. While it was fun, and it was rewarding, I'm too lazy to do it all the time. Also get rid of the bottles, and go to C02 in corny kegs. It saves almost a month of carbonation time, as well as time spent sanitizing bottles. Well worth it for around $200.

I found I can make an EXCELLENT beer using a homebrew kit, supplementing the wort (not making the entire wort from scratch, but making an addition), and changing out the garbage coopers yeast that those kits come with.

There are a few recipes here http://grapestoglass.com/beer-kits/t...pes-and-hacks/

Google "Homebrew Hacks", there is a ton of info on it, some of which are award winning brews that rate higher than all grain.
