You Know You're A Dedicated Homebrewer When...

[yum beer]

Mr B.....you appear as sneaky as me.......

 

[Crusty]

You sell **** & then need to buy it again.

 

[wide eyed and legless]

When every morning after pitching - and I mean EVERY morning - feels EXACTLY like Christmas morning did when you were a kid.

It is weird that pitched yeast only works like the tooth fairy, at night, my cool room is in pitch darkness but no matter when I pitch my yeast either early or late in the day, it doesn't start to work until night falls. The only exception is if you play an Om So Hum Mantra which is what my yeast was subjected too when I was fermenting in the bedroom, then for some unknown reason it would start and work before nightfall.

 

[Mardoo]

Curiouser and curiouser.

...when you're in recovery after angiography and get some bad news, but all you can think about is scoring a sweet syringe to imitate hand-pumped beers.

 

[Grott]

Trust all will be fixed up soon Mardoo.

 

[Mardoo]

Thanks mate.

Actually, Midnight Brew suggested a pre-surgery brew day, and of course I said yes. He's dedicated to the cause!

You know that you're a dedicated brewer when you're having a Mardoo's pre surgery brew day to wish a good AHB bloke well.

Some fine hops will be needed from Yob.

Set the date Midnight

 

[Nullnvoid]

If you need anything Mardoo, just let me know, I'll do my best to help.

 

[Moad]

Second that, all the best Mardoo i hope you are back on your feet in no time

 

[Killer Brew]

What's it called, and where do you get it?

It is Advance dog biscuits that we picked up at a local pet and grain supplier. Available for various ages and size of dog. Found this link although we got it elsewhere and our dog is a medium sized adult not a pup.

All the best Mardoo. Cheers mate

 

[Mardoo]

Thanks guys. The support means a lot. Don't know yet exactly what is going to happen, as I have yet to be assessed by the surgical panel in the cardiac unit.

Back to being a dedicated homebrewer.

You know you're a dedicated homebrewer when $62 for hops becomes $50-ish in your mind.

 

[malt junkie]

and you don't include the postage in your calculations, therefore it really is cheap!

 

[Mardoo]

When you spend the week before going into hospital for a quintuple bypass setting up a lager ferment so - roundabout the time you've recovered - you'll have a stinking good beer to drink.

Hopefully!

Seriously? All the best Mardhu. I did do the same when I just before a spinal fusion. Not quite as serious though.

 

[Zorco]

Dad had the Spinal fusion. Injury from the army carry packs.....first memories of him really.

Mahdu, keep the music flowing mate. We need you back here to keep the quality standards up....

Plus,

no sugar tonight without my Maltoo

Wishing you a speedy recovery Mahdu, good luck mate

edit: why do you have to have such a different name!
