Isn't yeast samples for analysis code for beer?

I bow to this one.....Methinks Evan just got owned!!!!

Biermuncher always has something vaguely sexual to offer.

What this has to do with drinking green beer is beyond me.

ok, this is a bit long for a quote, but I just loved the rationale behind this justification of the expense of home brewing. Now, if I can only persuade SWMBO to let me take up recreational flying, she will leave me alone on the beer stuff!

So, to quantify my benefit across 9 hours of brewing activity, I'm getting $1,350 worth of enjoyment per batch. My net cost per batch is now -$1110. At that rate, I broke even (at $7.99/six-pack) before I finished my second batch!

Not funny, not at all. Definately memorable. Not necessarily in a good way either.

It Seems like Revvy really has a Passion for NOT DUMPING YOUR BEER!

How many were dumped because the airlock never bubbled and they equate bubbling with fermentaion rather than a hydrometer?

How many were dumped for gaskets or arms in the fermenter without letting the beer finish out?

How many were dumped for an "off flavor" because they tasted it only a couple days after they bottled it and it was green?

How many were dumped because they opened the bottle and it wasn't carbed (becasue they didn't wait long enough?)

How many were dumped because they made a simple mistake and thought then that they caused one of the boogeymen of brewing...HSA, etc....

How many were dumped because they thought that wort and beer was so fragile that the mere long look by the brewer would cause it fall into nastiness like a soufle after the oven door got slammed.

Think about all the first time posters who come in here because of one of the afore mentioned issues, who asked before dumping...but think of all those new brewers out there who don't have a resources we have here...or like many of them, have discovered this place AFTER they dumped a batch....

My soul cries for all the yeasties who gave their lives to brewing ignorance....the acres of precious hops wasted....all the gallons of alchohol lost to the toilet and the drain....The Horror...THE HORROR!!!

This whole thread is going down this road...but this one made me laugh. Great what happens when you take things out of context.
