Er... I'm serious.

Just had a Duvel Trippel Hop 2014. Very nice beer.

So I got married 2 months ago (we've been living together for a year) and I recently decided to bring my brewing hobby to my home - I used to brew with three friends at a local bar, but my friends moved out of town so I'm brewing by myself now. The thing is, my husband is being really weird...

I'm the second one from left to right, he's the third one. He doesn't really like that I brew at home, though.

I'm on untappd for the badges. :tank: *no, but seriously* I don't think that spending 30 seconds checking-in to a beer on untappd and then leaving the phone alone to enjoy the friends and the beer itself constitutes being a "beer nerd", a "know it all". Moderation is key I believe.

Dashboard Confessional - Again I go Unnoticed. An emo mood right now.

Maybe THAT was the problem! hahaha. :mug:

WORST part is: I was completely sober. I hadn't had a single beer.

Hahaha, that's about 67C and it's WAY too hot.

I ALMOST got there and decided to do this. But I was afraid that if I did it and the wort wasn't good I'd lose all my pretty hops. Since I have this HUGE bag of out-of-date grains that I got as a donation, I thought I'd rather save the hops and ditch the grains and try again tomorrow.

Haha, yeah. I guess it is. But hey, at least I got to test most of my equipment, found a place to mill, got some cool new gear and have a recipe ready for the next time I get to do it. Also, that's probably a mistake I'll NEVER make again. :rockin:

So I spent this entire morning buying stuff and getting everything ready. Bought a new Mash Tun with Bazooka Screen, bought Cascade Leafs for the Dry Hop, bought ice, the whole thing. It's 3pm and I was boiling my water for the mash, it got to the right temperature, I threw the grains and...

It sure does. That's what I'll do then. :) Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Hey everyone, I'm sorry I've been AFK today, big day at work. I came up with a recipe for tomorrow and I was wondering if there's someone out there who can check it out to see if it's a good one: I want to brew a hoppy pale ale using some of the stuff that a friend donated to me. So it...

<3 Stone. And you guys sure will. Thanks for all the help.

Ohhhhhh. So you CAN use a keg to fill bottles! *MINDBLOWN* I'm definitely kegging now. You rock! Thank you so much and sorry for being such a newbie.

The one I have is an immersion chiller. Regarding bottling / kegging, I sort of want to do both, you know? I want to be able to give the bottles to people, but at the same time I don't really want to have to go through the trouble of bottling litters and litters of beer every time I brew...

A number of things, actually. I've never brewed by myself, for starters. My husband is being sort of weird about the idea of brewing in the apartment and this worries me. I'm also concerned because I've always chilled the beer in a huge ice bath and now there's this chiller that everyone says I...

You people are truly awesome. <3

Hahaha, that was EXACTLY what I had to read. Thank you so much.
