Sorry, was looking over the posts here and realized
that I forgot the link for the above:

This is an easy to follow set of instructions on doing
a simple mash session to get one started in all grain
brewing.

Use it as a guide only for the process. It doesn't have
a "recipe" for any particular beer, but you can find a
simple recipe for a basic beer and follow this
procedure, add your hops at boil time according to the
recipe, and be on your way to your first all grain
brew.

Be ready to spend the better part of the day on your
first one, and since you'll be doing a full boil, you
may want to invest in an immersion chiller, which you
can use in your extract brews also. You must cool the
wort quickly (to avoid bacterial infection) and you
won't have the option of blending with cold water like
you would with an extract brew to get the temp down to
fermentation temp quickly.
