Dirty Homebrew Terms

[Axegod]

Ok..not sure if this was ever done her before.....

These are prefectly fine HB terms but may sound dirty, ambiguous, or have a double entendre....

Here we go:

1) Siphoning the carboy
2) Pitching the yeast
3) Head retention


I am sure there are plenty more out there....

 

[Beer Snob]

Oh... hmmm.... kinda hard...... ummm....

1. Shake your fermentor...

[homebrewer_99]

[EvilTOJ]

not really a term, but the tubes the whitelabs yeast comes in remind me of something.... oh, but what could it be....?

but the winner is...









....








****IES!

 

[homebrewer_99]

....****IES!

You got my vote, but since when is that a beer term?

 

[Spyk'd]

You got my vote, but since when is that a beer term?

At first ****ies were homebrewers that were still bottling instead of kegging. The term eventually went on to refer to the actual bottles themselves as seen in the example below:


"I uncapped a ****ie and pressed it to my lips, drinking heavily from its bounty. It was quite intoxicating."



See?

 

[drunko]

Maybe someone already said it, but "Good Head" comes to mind first!

 

[Ivan Lendl]

What about 'Anal Beads'? like, "after i whirlpooled the wort and siphoned it off the trub i proceeded to shove some anal beads in my bum" (i say this all the time)

 

[G. Cretin]

stuck sparge

For sanitation, you should probably insert the anal beads BEFORE you begin brewing.

 

[Axegod]

Are those for airation?

 

[Jaybird]

dip tube
mash paddle
tap handle

 

[alemonkey]

For sanitation, you should probably insert the anal beads BEFORE you begin brewing.

Should those beads be sanitized with Star San or Idophor?

 

[Pumbaa]

Should those beads be sanitized with Star San or Idophor?

Bleach, then rinsed twice with tap water

 

[the_bird]

You should really only use the anal beads if you're brewing a brown ale.

 

[Fatabbot]

Poking the krausen.

 

[Boston]

My keggle has two nipples...HARD nipples.

 

[sudsmonkey]

I always thought "sparging" sounded dirty. That and "yeast cake". " I sparged all over the yeast cake, leaving just trub behind." . So nasty !

 

[the_bird]

I was in the basement, sniffing the aitlock and looking at my (still virgin) lauter tun, and could not help but go back over the parts list I ended up using:

Nipples
Hoses
Bushings
Couplings
Ball value.

I'm pretty sure, with the exception of a washer or two and the cooler itself, every item I put into the lauter tun does, in fact, sound kind of dirty. For whatever that's worth.

 

[RichBrewer]

I think this thread applies...

[the_bird]

Now that I think about it, EVERY piece of my lauter tun sounds kind of dirty. Just imagine:

"After I inflated my Rubber Maid, I had sex with her; now I've got to wash 'er."

 

[olllllo]

Adding Buffing the Corny because of this thread.

"Dry hopping" sounds like something my high school girlfriend and I did a LOT of.

 

[markfish]

my primary has a "bad yeast" problem. any suggestions

 

[eastwood44mag]

Mouth siphoning?

 

[Yuri_Rage]

Wild yeast infection
Tap the keg
You can have too much head, but retention is a good thing
Ball locks might hurt a little
Replace and lube the O-rings
...AND...COCK ALE (Joy of Homebrewing, page 92)

 

[The Happy Mug]

Last time I was at the HBS, some lady came in and said she needed a bung plug-in. You tell me what that sounds like.

She was pretty good looking too. I considered volunteering...

 

[Sir Sudster]

Hey Happy Mug, its been awhile since I've read your poetic genius..
Bung Plug-in is poetic Man. shoulda volunteered....

 

[sudsmonkey]

What rhymes with " bung plug-in"?
