What Kind Of Brewer Are You?

[Jim - Perth]

I read a different article that claimed that there are 3 different categories of Homebrewer:
1) The Budget Brewer - mainly K & k - usually uses supermarket ingredients to produce cheap booze;
2) The Hobbyist - takes an interest in the process & brews regularly but goes beyond the quick, cheap & easy approach;
3) The Craft Brewer - as the name implies, takes the whole process very seriously & produces a quality product.

I put myself somewhere between 2) & 3) which is, I suspect, where the majority of our fellows on this forum fit ie keen regular brewers who take a real interest in the craft & who strive to produce a great beer irrespective of time & effort involved & with cost being only a secondary issue.

Im, lazy, lazy, lazy. Nowdays usually decide on the grain bill as I crack it, hopping depends on the original boil gravity.
Rarely use any crystals.
Have a pump and all-stainless brewery. Doesn't mean the beers are any better than they were when I was doing "bucket in bucket mash" and boil in an urn.
