When looking for a new home, insufficient brewing space is a deal breaker.
This happens in your kitchen/dining room and it's not even half of your gear...

You pass a semi tanker hauling CO2 on the interstate and wonder how many kegs of beer it could carb.

When you celebrate the day you first brewed like its your birthday and many years later your still excited about brewing.
when you read this entire thread and think, thats a great idea, to several posts, which will probably become part of your routine
or
while reading this thread you think, what an idiot, to some of the posts. then you catch yourself doing it the next day

The day I first brewed was my birthday!
You know you're a homebrewer when you spend your birthday brewing.
I brew on my birthday every year. The exact same style too - lambic. That way I ALWAYS remember to brew a lambic every year, and thus have all the ages I ever need to blend.

When you excitedly tell anyone about how well your yeast is doing, just like you had a new baby.

When you don't only dream about your next brew day but you dream about posting on HBT.
My wife is beginning to think I have a problem.

While making oatmeal in the morning, you let it soak at 153F for 60 minutes. Then you proceed to filter out the oats and drink the remaining liquid.

When you think up brews to match holidays, birthdays or other events. For example, I just brewed my ESP for the Mayan apocalypse and named it The Bitter End.

When you can't wait to patrol Craigslist for homebrew stuff that people got for Christmas and don't want/need.

ive never heard of this, but upon investigation, it refers to kosher wine. doesnt kosher mean it contains extra garlic? or just being jewish tradition?

When you lay down to sleep thinking of your next brew, but suddenly come up with a change to your recipe so you are unable to sleep until you get up and enter the change in BrewSmith. Happened to me the other day.

Several ingredients cannot be used, for instance certain flavorings and finings are not considered kosher. So those and any equipment that has come in contact with them cannot be used in the making of a kosher wine/beer.

So for example, Isinglass could not be used since it comes from the swim bladder of sturgeon--a fish considered unclean.

When using a new water filter, you first perform a vorlauf.
The directions pretty much tell you to.
