Has anyone seen this?! (yeast starter saga)

[rgontasz]

"I can't find my skin cream" hahaha!!!

 

[wedge421]

Yah he puts on this crazed ego maniac act. Turns out he put a video out a few years ago talking about how the holocaust never happened. REally weird cat

 

[azscoob]

The coopers review was... impressive. he is complaining about off flavors, green apple specifically, isnt that caused by acetaldehyde? must be the kit and not the brewer! I hear coopers kits cant control the end-user.

 

[count_dookie]

I want to see a leaf fall into his wort while its cooling, I think he would have an aneurysm.

But as long as all the best homebrewers do it I guess I will stop RDWHAHB and be horriblly anal about every little thing. I guess I cant drop my mash paddle on the ground, wipe it on my pants, and return it to the boil kettle any more.

Well I had looked at this earlier and thought wtf, but didn't leave any comment. When I just looked I saw 64posts and 65 views. I started to feel guilty. So I'm back for more punishment. I find it hard to believe anyone has watched the whole thing. If you have, you probably have some leather and chains in your basement also.

 

[theredben]

I was wondering, if he rubs the lotion on his arms for the video, but doesn't wear a shirt normally (LOL), does he rub the lotion over his whole torso?

Good luck sleeping now!

 

[ruffdeezy]

LOL
TakeSomeAdvice is hilarious
first saw his vids a few months ago
"cmon guys" "the lacing"

 

[ruffdeezy]

go to about 4 mins

I was almost tempted to watch it

 

[FarmerJoe]

Some people just take the fun out of everything, especially for new people coming into this great hobby doing research on sanitation. He must not be fun to drink with. His "laugh" alone is so fake and annoying. Very fake person that's taking it way over the top, when it's really so much simpler and fun.

Plus he probably does his brew day completely naked and glistening head to toe from his aveeno lotion. Creepy! Haha

 

[chevelle383]

WOW! O my God.
I bet he showers with starsan. That was a good time.

He sounds like the Narrator from A Christmas Story.

I was almost tempted to watch it

Oh but you must, just go to 4:00 and give it 30 seconds - some of his best material

 

[WoodNeck]

Weepin' Jesus on the cross!

 

[bad67z]

I made it 2 minutes. I submit!!!

 

[rustbucket]

this guy is a d-bag.... makes me want to find him and beat some sense into him... if i found making starters that tedious i would not even consider making beer.

hey what about using your hands touching the outside of that jar, now the outside of your gloves are unsanitary! cant believe i watched that whole thing.. thanks OP now i have to go rip my eyes and ear drums out for listening to this idiot and watching 11 minutes of him


haha

 

[azscoob]

Weepin' Jesus on the cross!

I thought he was going to pee himself while looking at the mongo head he poured.

 

[chevelle383]

I had to bring the wife in to see some of that. We are laughing our asses off. "come on guys it s pilsner, its a pilsner, lets give it a try, its a pilsner, come on guys, the dominican republic, its a pislner"

 

[superjunior]

A must see, this ones short and sweet...I promise

 

[Bogforce]

I feel like with more beer I could watch all of his videos

 

[AussieBrewerInColorado]

Oh but you must, just go to 4:00 and give it 30 seconds - some of his best material

OK I succumbed. Got about 34 seconds... Think his had a few?

Folks, guess what, TSA was a member on here for a short time. Several of us, me included, tried to talk him down during his early brewing with the Coopers kit. He was on here every five minutes updating his thread about the latest "disaster" with his beer. He eventually got himself banned. You might still be able to find his old posts. He was under the name mikedavid00. Unfortunately, only a handful of his posts remain as I think his original thread got locked when he refused to listen to what ANYONE was telling him. Also, he's a total jerk to Craigtube and, love him or hate him, that guy never hurt anyone. Just an FYI, I'm in the love Craigtube camp!

 

[chevelle383]

I read a thread I found. Holy cow now I just feel bad. This guy is SERIOUSLY unstable and obviously needs professional help.

 

[FarmerJoe]

I got to look for the old threads lol. This guy is just way over the top, to the point where he's not even having fun presenting his videos, just listen to his fake laugh and "laugh track". At least craigtube is cool, laid back, and can teach a lot to a new homebrewer

 

[dirtyjerz]

Hes mental.

 

[redalert]

Wow that's classic. I thought I was paranoid with sanitation. Get this guy a job at White Labs. Seriously though it's over the top but I'm sure White Labs and Wyeast go through much greater lengths to isolate, reproduce, maintain yeast in a sterile environment. All beer, especially homebrew, is infected with wild yeast, bacteria, spores, etc. It's everywhere and its unavoidable. Hence the necessity to cool wort quickly and pitch your yeast. Even if this guy left his beer in the carboy, sealed for moths after boiling; some bacteria or wild yeast would eventually take hold. It is not within the scope of homebrewers in a modern kitchen to keep a 100% sterile environment nor is it advisable. I think I'm done with brewing.

 

[Hoppin_Mad]

Went back and read the thread from the guy that is still open on here. I actually kind of feel bad now but it is still so amusing I cannot help myself.

https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f37/how-long-fermenter-cooperskit-143390/

I think I found the person at fault for his overzealous sanitation procedures.....

From Revvy:

"...mikedavid00...If you are leaving your beer x days and getting an infection, then it's not the process of leaving the beer someplace, it's the fact that YOU are skimping on cleaning and fermentation. It's not the fault of long primary, it's operator error. "



it is really funny to see the process of him getting banned in that one thread lol

Several issues with you statements.

1) Homebrew is just as infected as commercial brews. No more, no less.

2) Cooling you wort quickly is due to "off-flavours", not sanitation.

3) I hope you are being sarcastic about being done with brewing. It is an enjoyable hobby with a huge bonus in the bottle.

 

[superjunior]

I think our friend here wants to be Craig, he might even want to wear his skin..

 

[VegasBrew]

This guy is making a feeble attempt at parody, I used to thing he was just a ****** bag but NO BODY can be such a self centered *******. I have watched this dork for awhile since he started a feud with craigetube on youtube. I can`t believe this thread has gone on so long....DAMN!!! now I have made it longer.....
