You Teach A Man To Brew And He.....

[Fents]

hahahaha this is a classic. had vicelore come round my house yesterday to watch and help me brew. standard brew day, knock out 60L's, drink piss, eat food and watch the cricket on the back deck whilst brewing.

everything went ace. mashed in, mashed out, sparged, boiled, ate, drank and watched teh cricket of course.

sent him home with 20L's no chilled into his fermenter of liquid gold APA, he was a very very happy man....until i get this text message on my phone just now almost 24hrs later..

" hey man you wont belive what happened to my beer, im so pissed off! "

now im a betting man and i pretty much guessed what happened before he could reply with...

" i tried to turn it and as it turned in the car the tap popped off and it flooded the front of my car i was soooo f%$king pissed it was like at 7am this morning.."


deary me...20l's of non fermented APA in the front of a car, that ones gonna take a while to clear hahahahahaha

sorry for laughing and posting it on here bro, you'll see the funny side one day and hey if it happens to save one other person from the same mistake...

biggups for a stella day vice your a very quick learner and a good bloke to boot.

your not gonna belive this but his fermenter was tapless.....until i made him put a tap in! i said mate how you gonna get that beer out after you've fermented it?

well it was the blind leading the sober so i take no responsibilty next time we'll leave that plug in hahahahaha.

edit - looks like he saved half maybe 10L's.

 

[Kleiny]

[vicelore]

There was a bit left but it was dirty as fark.. i nearly turned the fementer upside down to stop it pouring out.

Just gives me an excuse to get my mash tun tonight and try get another down ASAP

looking on the bright side, yer lucky you hadn't yet pitched yeast. the inside of your car would've looked liked like a belgian farmhouse 6mo. down the track, no matter how many times you steam clean the interior.

You could have saved yourself the probs with cleanup, and just called me. I like nothing better than licking carpet, particularly if it's beer flavoured. :unsure:

 

[Adamt]

This'll be different butters... you'll have to kneel down for this carpet!
