I'm getting it together to brew a milk stout to make into my Whiskely Ale this year. Bourban oaked milk stout sounds intriguing anyway...

At least you're not making the Water of Life, because that's a place we guys cannot go. Unless we're the Kwisatz Haderach of course.I'm also looking into making a Dune IPA and calling it The Spice of Life.

When you tell SWMBO that you will be up all night working hard on a Belgian Blonde, and her response is not to wake her when you come to bed.
You know you're a home brewer when...
you're in the hospital after the birth of your second child and she is under a bili light for phototherapy to reduce jaundice and you think to yourself:
"I wonder how fast that light would skunk a beer?"
My daughter is fine and she is a beautiful three week old!
You know you're a home brewer when you read bout the amazing discovery of finding "drinkable water" on mars and wonder how much it would cost to get a hold of mars water so you could be the first to brew a Red Planet Ale.
Wonder what a zero-g fermentation looks like? Would you still need a blow off tube?

Zero g, not zero atmosphere. I would think you would have a greater degree of oxygen exchange in a still liquid. It should be more or less sphere shaped. It would, therefore, have more surface area to exchange with. You might have a problem where the co2 would form a pocket in the liquid though, instead of separating. Like this.I'm guessing no. With no oxygen in space, the yeast probably won't ferment?

When your two year old girl eats all your hop candy, and as you dump your dry hops into the carboy, she grabs a Citra whole leaf and pops it in her mouth.

When you turn the closet in your spare bedroom (used for my Kid's play room) into a beer room.
In an effort to not have to go down to the basement all the time, I ran a power cord into the closet from the basement and have 3 mini fridge/wine coolers in there.
1 is a standard mini fridge to hold commercial beers in.
1 is a converted sanyo mini fridge with dual Taps for dispensing from two corny kegs.
1 is a wine cooler that I converted to a temp controlled fermentation chamber that holds two corny kegs.
Now I'm going to build shelves around everything to store my grains and what not.
Who says you need a ton of space to do all grain? I'm like the Ikea of brewing rooms.

Definite burst of pride. I love when I pull out my brew stuff and she says "You making beer Dabby?" She always likes to help but teaching proper sanitation is rocket science for a two year old.WilliamSlayer said:Wow. Just out of curiosity what was your reaction? Burst of pride? Or, hey... that's my hops!
When you order special release yeasts just to slant them in case you want them later.
And then brew a batch with it on the fly.
