You know you're a home brewer when?

[jbsg02]

You make iced tea and preform a vorlauf

I have made coffee off the HLT... is that close?

 

[dshay]

[BrewChem]

when you go downstairs to fold laundry and end up inspecting carboys and sniffing airlocks

 

[Rivenin]

when after a brew session, your back porch looks like there was a mr bubbles massacre (from the overuse of starsan )

 

[tinman1]

When you come to the realization that the more you brew, the less you know... Years ago, when I started brewing, I thought every wacko idea was something brilliant and new. Now I realize that it's probably not new and there are SO many brewers out there that I am not even WORTHY to hold their mash paddles....

When you mumble the mantra "grey gas, black beer"

When you think stainless is a prettier metal than gold or silver.

+1! gotta be brushed, not polished!

 

[BeerPumpsEtc]

when you wake up on the garage floor wondering what the hell happened!

 

[hwilshusen]

When you are disappointed because you thought the masseuse said hoppy ending.

 

[cadarnell]

you are starting to get fat

 

[DonutMuncher]

You have nightmares about a stuck sparge, and you don't even brew all-grain.

 

[HawksBrewer]

One of your patients stops by to drop off an article on craft and home brewing.

When you are sitting in a chair in your brew room looking at your Primary's and secondary's and your wife come's in and ask how your kids are.



and then says "Honey I think you might have a problem" to which you respond "Ya I all my primary's are full and I wanted to brew this weekend"

This makes too much sense! I have way more money invested in stainless than I do gold or silver.

When you get a tad annoyed because SWMBO says you need to do something about moving your Brew Room because you need to use it as a "Spare Bedroom"...or something like that.

 

[Trophy_Brew21]

People call you a beer snob, because you enjoy making good beer and not drinking horse piss!

 

[snccoulter]

When you wife is ticked because she is tired of listening to the stir-bar ticking in the kitchen.

 

[Dawnhulio]

When you get a tad annoyed because SWMBO says you need to do something about moving your Brew Room because you need to use it as a "Spare Bedroom"...or something like that.

Or your better half asks 'So, where are you going to put all this???' And I say 'Well, obviously here and here''.... to which he replies 'Oh, okay.' Please note this is in his man-cave (garage). Either he really loves me, or loves the fact that I make beer...not another word said.

He's awesome, btw.

 

[Dawnhulio]

I meant to add.... Come on, who needs a spare bedroom? Turn it into beer storage, your guests will be too soused to care....

 

[Alucard1983]

Your a homebrewer when you neighbors call you in to the police as making drugs while your brewing beer

 

[Rivenin]

When you wife is ticked because she is tired of listening to the stir-bar ticking in the kitchen.

Swmbo just had this very coment tonight, I usually keep it in the spare room. But I got lazy

inorite!

It's really much cooler in there than any other place in the house so when I need to move my fermenters from the guest bathtub it makes me cry a little inside.



You know you might be a homebrewer when you would seriously consider wearing a cologne that smelled like fresh hops...if they made it.

 

[snccoulter]

I would put it on.. mmmmmm hops

 

[PJM]

When the ONLY thing you read is beer forums...

 

[Frankiesurf]

The guy at the LHBS knows your voice when you call and has a pen ready for your order.

 

[RandomBeerGuy]

When the only gardening activity you enjoy is checking on your hop plants.
