Well you have the roasters, grinders, the mash tun and then you spend a bunch of time mashing and sparging. Then you gotta get rid of up to 15# of gooey grain waste for a 5 gallon batch. I buy quality extracts made by a local home brew supplier themselves, use a few # of grains and get very similar results, imo. Going all grain is the only way if you are brewing large batches or a whole bunch of batches though. The cost difference of buying bulk grains in barrels makes up for it pretty quickly.
