Hehe, interesting point. Had I not trolled this forum he might have been saying
"First we rinse out the bucket with a hose. Then we boil all the grains, don't rehydrate the yeast and leave out in the sun so the bucket is hot. Then when the bubbles stop we put the beer in the bottles and drink them before they explode."

Pissweak humour aside, it never ceases to amaze me how much they take in.

He already knows more about how beer is made than 99.9999999% of the population.

His first all grain brew will be nicer than my first

 

[Droopy Brew]

Been off work crook and my wife bought my twin 4 year olds home. I decided to clean a keg in preparation for the fermenting batch. I took the lid off and my boy says "are we making beer dad? Making beer?"
M: "Would you like to make some?"
S: "Yes dad but first we need to make the yeast" (pointing finger up as if to say 'listen in')
M: "Wow you are clever, you know how to make beer don't you?"
S: "Yes, beer has yeast and water. Next we need to get the water"
M: "Really?!"
S: "We get the water and then we put the grains in"
M: [begins to shed tear]
S: "Then we put the beer in the fridge with the yeast and we leave it. Then we put them together and it makes bubbles."

No word of a lie. So much pride, there is much hope for this one.

Awesome. This belongs in the Continuing Happiness Thread.

Socrates, Pythagoras, Archimedes, Aristotle, and on and on.
Some of the greatest thinkers in human history. What happened to you Greece?

Really small corrupt tax dodging pricks judging from the hand gesture.

They are still thinkers, mainly thinking of scams to extract money from the government for non existent jobs, how to avoid GST
and what impairment they can come up with to retire at 45. Hard work all that thinking.

Well they better start thinking about some very un-Greek austerity and a yes or no vote this weekend then. The euros sound like they've had a gutfull of propping up their lifestyle.

Angela Merkel doesn't mind, it keeps the Euro low, good for German exports.

They should put here in charge. Her brand of fiscal conservatism and CDU ethics would whip those freewheeling Greeks into shape quick smart.

Just the leafy suburb of Mooroolbark.

Danwood would have people believe it's all meth labs and abortion clinics.

Hay...I missed this one !

'Ahem'..... don't get me started on Mooroolbark. It used to be called Moral-bark, but no one who lived there had any.

So, they went and stole a load of 'Os' from neighbouring suburbs, ground off the ID numbers, resprayed them, and bolted them into place in a disused factory during the early hours.

The surplus 'A' was found days later, burnt out and abandoned in wasteland.

The proud, originally Irish settled, suburb of O'Ringwood will never forget !

True story.

In fairness, the man could be suffering some degree of frostbite judging by the state of his hand, genitals and what appears to be a segment of his penis he holds aloft. Behold!

Did the Greeks invent liquid nitrogen?

Certainly not OH & S.

Decided to start on the sparkling wine my wife has been gifted by work / parents tonight. Tee'd off with Jacobs Creek Trilogy @ 11.5%^. After spending all afternoon doing Jesus like carpentary on the kids treehouse followed by splitting timber the shit has gone straight to my head. And bladder.
Was going to put this in the 'whats in the glass' thread but **** it. Y'all know what the the shit looks like. Looks the same coing out as going in.
Tastes like- well, its cold as ****, but its dry and..............I dunno, fuckin 'wedding like'. I do not mind another glass.
Might keg a bunch of Stanley chardonnay and make my own.

Years ago me and a mate tried to put a goon of mozzle through a soda syphon al la DIY spumante. Abject failure. Jacobs creek trilogy is ok but go for the jacobs creek reserve chardonay pinot noir. Classy drop and 60% of the time it works every time...

I like those odds.

 

[Mardoo]

Kegging goon. Now that has never occurred to me. Might be right up my wife's alley

Shouldn't have read this, thanks Dave, Bridges and Mardoo!
