So, I want to make the transition into All-grain brewing, but I and a
bit conflicted about the whole infusion & step mash things.

I have a few questions that none of my textual references seem to answer:

1. The step process seems like a bit of a pain and I am wondering if it
really makes all the difference.

2. Can I successfully take a "step-mashing" recipe and do an infusion?
Will it change it that much?

3. Is it worth buy grain in bulk and what is a pretty good one to have
on-hand in volume? Crystal?
