You know you're a home brewer when?

I think like that every time the pipeline fills up!

I fell victim to "packaging the last batch the day before leaving on vacation so it has a reduced chance to go bad" bit.

Ha, that was me except I wanted to make sure it was carbed by the time I got back!

Every time your SWMBO notes a flavor in a beer, you reply with "I know how they did that!"

SWMBO: This wheat beer has a banana taste.
Me: Yeah, that's from the yeast strain. And they probably fermented a little warm.

SWMBO: I don't taste tangerines, but I smell them.
Me: Yeah, that's because they add the tangerines after the boil. They may have even dry-hopped them.

SWMBO: This one (a Saison) tastes kinda fruity.
Me: It's fermented warm, so you get these esters that make it taste fruity.

When you are anxious for no apparent reason and the decision to brew a batch of beer calms you down... Immediately.

First your fridge contained food. Then just beer. Now half beer, half washed and harvested yeast...

 

[DrunkleJon]

How about when you have more refrigerators than people living in your house.

I get away with that for cars and fridges. 'Merica.

I am the worst yeast harvester/dregg collector, had to actually throw some out the other day because I did not label them, and needed room for food in the fridge

Dude, you're not drinking enough water!

When you bring a mixed 12'r to a class reunion & the guy doesn't even talk to you, but wants the beer. you then take it home & drink it yourself...

Huh?

 

[Gonefishing]

Small class reunion? "when the guy doesn't talk to you" ??

When you think BMC is horse piss!

We had our EHS 40th class reunion last Saturday. I was talking to them on facebook & a former classmate/football team member wanted to try my beers. At the reunion, he never gave me a passing word. Not like he couldn't look at the pic on my facebook page? So I took the beers back home with me.

 

[Gonefishing]

ok, that makes a lot more sense now that we have an idea of the story behind your post.

 

[GHBWNY]

Dude, you're not drinking enough water!

Or homebrew.

 

[Michigan_Wolfman]

While you're shopping at the local Wal-Mart or Sam's Club, you see a cooler large enough to stuff an entire dead cow into with room to spare, and think to yourself "Man, that'd make one hell of a mash tun!" SWMBO sees what you're looking at and says "Don't even think about it, Mister!"

 

[slym2none]

When you think BMC is horse piss!

I thought that looooooong before I ever started brewing my own.

 

[Michigan_Wolfman]

I thought that looooooong before I ever started brewing my own.

Likewise. The only beer that I think is just as bad is Corona and Rolling Rock.

 

[masskrug]

I need to bottle during, "Nap Time."

 

[drainbamage]

Maybe not just for homebrewers...but you know you're a beer geek when your friends text you a pic of the beer list from wherever they're eating and say, "quick, help me decide what to order!"

 

[Cheesy_Goodness]

This is more for wine makers, but when you regularly buy fruit at 15 pound intervals.

 

[Schol-R-LEA]

When you think BMC is horse piss!

I believe that the quote is, "most American beer tastes like it was brewed through a horse." Ah, that silly silly William Mares.

After all, we all know why BMC is like making love in a canoe...

When you almost consider not using a fermentation fridge just so you can hear the sweet sounds of an airlock at all hours of the day.

When you're sitting in the car dealership sweating bullets about the bill you're about to pay for your car and you still find the cash to order 2 new kegs :rockin:
