I completely disagree with showing him a bunch of posts from people he you nor he has ever met calling him a fool. You could get the opposite of what you are looking for with him just saying nope it ain't happening in my house. That then could lead to other bigger issues that you don't want.

I had the same space problem - bought three of these and never had a problem again!
You can get them from a bunch of places quite cheap - Americanas has them, for instance.

And if something this insignificant puts a strain on your relationship. Find a new guy who you find just as exciting, handsome, and gorgeous. It shouldn't be a difficult task.. you're a very beautiful girl and if I may judge, have a lot to offer other than beauty. Beauty is swell. But you have more than physical appearance, you have soul.
There are plenty of guys who would like a girlfriend/wife that looks good, is open minded, loves beer, and is creative.
Putting the shoe on the other foot, I'd love to have found a one of a kind girl who enjoysbrewing, and life and love.
Don't sell yourself short. If this guy makes you do that. Find another.
-Disclaimer. I am divorced once and possibly working on the next. Take my advice for what it's worth.

I'll throw my two cents in. First I'll have to agree with those who suggested becoming better organized. It's tough in an apartment. Now you did say he enjoys craft brews that are commercially made. Your going too need to make a style he likes. That will help.

I think if you can tidy it up and brew a beer he likes all will be very good. If more problems persist then it probably is not the beer hobby regardless of what is said. But if you can put the hobby aside for a few months you will more understanding of what he wants and weather or not you can deal with it.

I have a standing agreement with my SWMBO, she makes cheese, bakes, etc. and I brew, go cook crazy, etc. We work with each others interests.

I know I posted earlier, but I had a thought; if you were to make shelves that ran along the wall, all your stuff will be up off of the counters. It would still be in plain sight, but the counters would be freed up. I did see the shelving unit posted earlier, and if you have the floor space, you could put your gear on it, make a cover for it, and out of sight out of mind. I hope.

Yeah, I really like the shelf idea. I'm currently investing in some new stuff like kegs and a mini-fridge, so I'm gonna try to negotiate with him about space and how to organize it so it'll cause less trouble around the house.
Some guys have it so good they have no idea how to handle it...
I haven't read all of this but I might be the voice of dissent here. I love brewing but my biggest pet peeve is clutter. If the equipment is where I can see it every day, I'm probably not happy about it, either. If it is somewhere where I don't see it, and drop in guests don't see it ...then knock yourself out.
My wife and I have a very good relationship (married 12 years) and clutter is probably the biggest source of tension.
Sent from here, because that's where I am.
EDIT: looking back, I guess my view is not really the voice of dissent.
No two people will be without disagreements. If you're respectful and minimize the impact that upsets your significant other, you'll be fine.

Update? Did he come around?
Yah, because when your wife rubs your nose in it and tells you you're wrong, that ALWAYS fixes it.
Men are stupid, need to complain about something, and supermodels get dumped by their boyfriends.

I winder. Maybe they're getting divorced, or he made her quit all together?...
Doubtful. People come and go all the time from websites. She posted in the drinking thread some after this thread. My guess is married life gets in the way and not everyone spends every day on forums. I wouldn't worry.
I found she has some recent untapped logins. Which could mean almost anything, I suppose.
People come and go from hobby sites all the time. It's not a big deal. I think she just decided to not post here anymore.
And with the way some guys behave around here I wouldn't blame her.

How some guys behave around here? Like tracking women down on other social media platforms?

I've only been brewing for a couple of months. The first batch stressed my wife out. I don't think she knew what to expect, and I didn't know what I was doing. We've both gotten used to the process, and we sometimes invite friends. She likes the beer, and I've managed to find places to store my stuff. You'll figure it out.
Yikes!
This thread needs a group hug, stat!
Cheers!

Nope. You're just being extremely weird. I'm sure you were serious when you posted but it may have been deemed odd and when that was called into question, suddenly you claim you weren't serious and everyone else is just so wrong. So, you could just drop it and silently wait for her to return.
So is this group hug fully clothed, or naked, or something in between? I want to make sure it's worth my while before humping in.

Wow........ I am sorry.
I bend over backwards to keep everything put away and clean so I do not upset mate.
Does he cook at all? I ask because if he does you need to get him involved. buy a book of clone recipes he could read and pick a few. get him involved Dress sexy when brewing tease him, like foreplay, and don't finish until the yeast is pitched.
