comment How do I convert between all-grain and extract recipes?
Keep in mind that certain specialty malts (e.g. Cara-Pils) need to be mashed, and can't be steeped for an extract brew the way crystal, chocolate, etc. malts can.

comment Are some types of beers easier to brew than others?
Especially the last point; the roasted flavour of chocolate malt and black patent malt is strong enough that it'll cover up mistakes and immaturity. Of paramount importance is using good yeast; if you find your beers all taste the same and sub-par, use a better yeast!
