Do you contain your junk during brewing?

  • Yes

  • No

  • I like for my junk to dangle into the brewpot randomly.

  • I prefer the control that is provided by diapers.

  • I wear a condom while brewing.

  • I dress as Gandalf while I brew.

  • I dip my junk in the boil........the entire boil.

  • I dip my DOG in the boil.

  • I dip my junk in the boil the last 10 minutes

  • I have been wearing the same pants for over 10 years

After the great ~185*F water & open nozzle on the MLT (elevated on stand/burner) incident of 2011.......yes. :eek:
 
I'm glad to see that no one boils their junk for the entire 60 minutes, and that no one makes the noob mistake of boiling with a condom on.
 
You left off a choice - "I don't have junk" - for those of us who - well, don't have junk!!

Some female and eunich brewers utilize strap on junk, but you are right!

I missed that one big time......although......it is hard to se which other option was unnecessary.
 
I prefer a Borat mankini. Keeps the junk protected from open flame and hot wort but I can get a great tan on the rest of me while brewing on the back patio.

It also scares away the curious, so I can brew in peace. ;)
 
I cover my junk with my clothes, and my clothes with my robe, and prefer to stir the mash with my staff. Since a wizard needn't change clothes, I have worn the same attire for far longer than 10 years.
 
This thread has gone down hill fast.

Yes I wear pants and crocs with no vent holes. If boiling water get on your feet, you want to be able to get the hot material off as fast as possible.

I don't know what you're talking about. Prettty sure this thread started at the bottom of the hill
 
Since I BIAB I have found the pulley I installed In the ceiling to be quite useful for hanging upside down by my ankles while brewing. No more worries about spilling hot wort in my junk, legs, or feet.

It does tend to give one hell of a head rush the first 30 min or so.
 
I started brewing in the dead of summer. It was wicked hot in my garage and even with a fan on me I was sweating. There is no way I'd wear pants. I realize the risks but it is what it is.
 
This thread has gone down hill fest.

FTFY

A DOWNHILL FEST it is.

Quite right.

It started low, and needed a nudge or 2 to get really rolling.

It got exactly 13 nudges, so it is set to hit bottom SOON.

You realize this is the is the "Drunken Ramblings & Mindless Mumbling" subforum, right?
And that the OP of this particular clusterf*** of a thread is cheezydemon3, a truly deranged (and possibly dangerous) individual, and known proliferator of the absurd.

I mean that with the utmost respect, or course. :mug:

Bingo. :cross:

It started at the bottom, but as usual, we've managed to dig even deeper into the depths of depravity, I'm sure we've got more digging to do before this one dies
 
No pants, but I keep my snausage wrapped up. Wouldn't want to give anyone any cold sores from drinking my beer.
 
I voted diapers, but not for control, it's my yeast starter. Just sprinkle some DME on the inside of the diaper a day before pitching and voila, a fresh starter of "brewers yeast" you want to pitch when it's still actively fermenting the starter, you will know by the fizzy feeling on your junk
 
Yeast? Interesting. I've been studying alchemy feverishly to better understand why stirring my wort with a new staff always results in a longer lag time than when I use a staff that's been properly worn in.

Lately I've been dipping the full length of my beard into the fermenter. Sometimes even before fermentation has started. I find it... helps..... with...... Ahh. I'm rambling. What were we talking about?
 
OK, then, a follow up question: does wearing these "pants" then preclude me from voting "I wear a condom when brewing"? These things are not necessarily exclusive of one another.

Wearing a condom or not has little to do with whether or not you are covering your junk with a frozen fish.

If you wear a condom, fess up, it is multiple choice....and hurry up. Voting closes in 364 days.
 
Ahhh....cod. I'd certainly go with a codcondom if I could, however I'm not allowed near them. Court order. It's what happens when you get caught in public doing something unmentionable with a fish stick.
