your addicted to homebrewing when......

[ArcaneXor]

You have drunk so much that you don't know the difference between "your" and you are".

 

[superjunior]

you walk into home depot or lowes and think that EVERYTHING in the store can somehow be used for brewing

You mean it can't??

 

[Runyanka]

When I opened my closet and realized that over 50% of the space in there is dedicated to beer stuff, and the garage is 25% beer stuff.

 

[DoctorDuvel]

...when you have 60 bottles of brews in the closet and think the stash is getting too low

 

[twardnw]

when you consider selling off project cars just to have more room in the garage to brew.

Got me. B@$tard!

 

[ReefkprZ]

you drive to the HB store in the middle of a blizzard (me today), to buy new toys and new ingredients because your primary is empty, and you really can't wait any longer for that bottle sanitizer even though it will be weeks before you can use it.

you picked your first carboy out of the garbage, and you brew beer in it. (me)

You are too busy brewing to post on this site!

You own 7 refrigeration units and only one of them contains food.

Got me beat by 2 lol... I have 5 fridges, all of them contain beer/wine. only 1 has a little room for food.

 

[dedhedjed]

according to SWMBO i was muttering in my sleep last night about pros and cons of immersion chillers and plate chillers...

 

[Sedge]

you sleep in an uncomfortably warm room because the space heater is putting a carboy through a diacetyl rest...and its your roommate's beer, not yours (he won't take care of it properly)

 

[DoctorDuvel]

according to SWMBO i was muttering in my sleep last night about pros and cons of immersion chillers and plate chillers...

lol...if true, that's amazing and awesome.

 

[trigger]

You donate your dining set so the dining room has space for a kegerator and fermentation chiller...

Your girlfriend says the jars in the fridge have gone bad. You take a look and realize she's talking about your yeast bank...

You keep collecting kegs and bottles because you're brewing faster than your friends and family and neighbors and dog and strangers and you can drink...

 

[Hoodweisen]

You call your wife from work to ask if your primary started bubbling and when she replies she doesnt know you ask her very kindly to sit and watch for a few minutes too check.
I did that today

 

[Ace_Club]

...you are thrilled to have HBT mobile access so that you can check the site and post while on the sh!tter.

 

[dedhedjed]

lol...if true, that's amazing and awesome.

I of course don't remember it, but she said it was hilarious...

 

[Bombo80]

you take a week staycation and brew 8 hours a day for a week.

 

[shanecb]

Your child critiques the head retention of her root beer.

 

[Butler]

Checking in on your fermenting carboys several times a day like sleeping babies.

 

[KRYLOK]

Brewing on your wife's birthday and she doesn't drink beer.

 

[rustbucket]

everything that you asked for and got for Christmas is related to homebrewing or beer

 

[kmk1012]

When you try to convince your wife that you are actually "saving" money everytime you brew. Little does she know that the equipment costs alone will take 20years to break even!

 

[MBasile]

You meantion the kegerator in your garage without hesitation.... because doesn't everyone have one?

 

[JoeBronco]

you entertain the idea of nameing your kids after types of hops... Simcoe will be my first born.

 

[smokey]

Your deployed half way arround the world working 12~14 hours a day 6 days a week and still manage to keep up with this site

Your upset you didn't get to brew one last batch to age while you were deployed for 4 months

 

[billf2112]

When a big snow storm is about to hit and you send your SWMBO to the store for bread and milk and you head to the LHBS to get brewing supplies just in case you are snowed in you will still be able to brew.

Or you are hope you get snowed in and can use it as excuse to brew. "well we are snowed in, guess I can kill this down time by brewing"

 

[r8rphan]

Commercial beers you used to like taste like crap!

I know I'm about to run out of the IPA I have kegged, and it's at least a week before the next batch can be tapped (and it will be green at that), so I went to the local store and bought a 12 pack of SN pale ale, and a sixer of torpedo...

Used to like 'em.. now I hate 'em... All bitter and no flavor... not smooth at all..

What hops do they use in those anyways?

Once my pipeline is firmly established, I'm gonna do everything I can to make sure it never is interrupted again!
