Usually takes me 4-5 hours at most from start to finish. I always build the recipe before brew day so I can keep tinkering with it if needed and I already have grains milled too. My LHBS has a really nice adjustable mill so I've been slacking on getting my own. I have a dedicated area for storing my equipment and miscellaneous items, but I brew on the front porch. My water in Portland is a good foundation to build on so I generally just use hot tap water for strike and sparge so it takes less time to heat up and use less propane. Why waste gas when I have a hot water heater to take advantage of?
