I try to keep my prices around $30 per batch (I'm still extract brewing) but they always seems to creep closer to $40, which is quite an expenditure all at once for a college student! I'm not complaining, it's still cheaper than store bought beer or beer at a bar, but I'm just trying to stay thrifty.
So my question, (to both extract and all grain brewers):
How much money on average does a 5 gallon batch cost you? Any what are your brewing mostly (dark beers? Light beers? Belgians? etc.)
(Feel free to throw in any tips for keeping costs down...
