Warning signs of homebrew addiction

[jfrank85]

Just went and bought new appliances and asked the sales person how long the new stove would take to bring a 6 gallon batch up to boiling.

The corner of your garage where all the brew equipment is stored is perfectly organized, almost like a shrine........the rest of the garage, not so much.

... When the wife is constantly getting pissed and saying "This house is not a f*cking brewery!!". Then I think to myself "It obviously is, I just brewed beer didn't I? Look at all the beer gear we have around here".

Conversely,when you cleaned up the study & an old printer stand to put all your brewing gear in one corner. Then she realizes she likes your beers!

You do realize that boiling on the stove is a gateway brewing drug right? Soon that little measly flame won't satisfy the hunger and it's all over.

Your addicted to home brew when you start kegging your hombrew just so your wife can't count all the bottle of beers you drank.

When you wake up in the middle of the night to swap frozen water bottles out in your lagering tub..

When you keep a flashlight on the nightstand so you can wake up in the middle of the night to check fermentation temp on the side of the bucket so you don't turn on the lights and wake everyone up...

When you open a loaf of German Rye bread and smell beer..

While sitting of the can you go over new threads on hbt forum with your iPhone app.

As your pouring your cooled wort into the fermenter and getting ready to pitch the yeast , you look at your soon to be beer and pause.... Conjuring up thoughts of your next brew.

When you're driving home and see a beat-up old wheelbarrow in somebody's construction truck with the letters WP-1550 on it and OBVIOUSLY yout first thought is "White Labs makes a 1550?! What am I missing out on?".... And it's a full mile before you realize there's not even an L in the stenciling because you're planning out possible test brews.

"All your home brew are belong to us!"

Your commercial beer preferences are based on ease of label removal and lack of screw caps on their bottles.

 

[alaskana]

*Sorry if this one has already been posted*

You get up at 3 A.M. just to go and sneak a peak of your fermenter bubbling away.

You call your latest brew "My Precious...".

When you used to think of "quads" as 4 speaker stereo,or 2 four barrel carbs. But now you think Belgian...dang,I shoulda picked up that omagang quad,.

 

[mlyday]

When you go down to the basement fridge to grab a beer the night before a brew day, see the yeast starter and say something like "sleep now my pretties for tommorow we feast".

When your wife says happy floccualtion day! Lol

[jbsg02]

When the hum of your kegerator puts you to sleep at night

... your local beer store knows you not only for your proclivity toward craft brew, but to save swing tops and cool pry off bottles for you.

 

[sculpin]

when your kid asks you : are you buying beer ???? i thought you were making your own

When you're doing mash rest calculations as you are sitting on the can.
