I want to know everyone's opinions on the best way to brew GF All grain. I'm looking to switch to All grain from extract based brewing, and obviously I need some new equipment. From what I've read it seems like people are doing the whole range of methods from Brew in a Bag to Mashing in a cooler mash tun. Has anybody experimented with multiple methods, and if so which did you find works best?
I'm mostly interested in ease and simplicity, but efficiency is also a concern. At the home brew level though, I'm willing to sacrifice a little efficiency if it's easier and faster.
It seems like Brew in a Bag would be the fastest\cheapest way in to All Grain, but does it work well with GF grains?
If you are mashing, are you using a cooler style mash tun, or a kettle type, that can be heated?
I know this is a very open ended post, I'll gladly take whatever input and opinions you all have.
Thanks in advance
