Homebrewing Problem

[Evan!]

Yeah, it's dangerous---but I look at it this way: I no longer spend money on commercial brew, unless it's crazy good stuff that I can't recreate (like I bought a bottle of the Stone Russian Imperial Stout last night).

Hey, by the way, who is the guy with the coke-bottle glasses that looks like Milton from office space, and is on about 3 different avatars here?

His name is bubbles, go to http://video.google.com and search trailer park boys

I get off work in 45 minutes! THEN TIME TO BREW!

You don't have a brewing problem unless you start sniffing the primary fermenter airlock.

I did that with my first batch...

And every subsequent one. =)

I have a few hundred pounds of grain occupying my "work bench" in the basement.

Damn, that reminds me. I still have 100kg of malt in the back of the car. Hit Gambrinus today for 4 bags of malt. Well, at least the car is mouse free and I doubt anyone will steal it. haha

That's the sign of a true professional.. (my story and I'm sticking to it)

As far as bubbles and the TPB's.. I'm brewing a heffe called "Bubbles" this week. Using wyeast 3638. Should be nice and banana/clove like. I find the North American "hefeweizen's" too be to lacking in hefe flavors.

I keep the heat or A/C on hold at 68 depending on weather outside whenever I have a batch in the fermenter no matter what. All other times the heating/cooling system runs on a program.

If my wife gets cold I tell her to put a sweatshirt on rather than turn the heat up...I've tried to reason by saying the fermenter doesn't have the capacity to dress up or dress down. I may be building a fermentation chamber someday..
