You're Not A Real Brewer Until -----

[Bribie G]

... you do the BIAB bag and hopsock in the washing machine and automatically put in the fabric softener in the rinse cycle. (I use fresh breeze from ALDI, gives the Bribie Bitter that maritime twang)

 

[Pollux]

You dump half of your spent grain on your wife's foot while emptying your bag into a garbage bag she is holding....

 

[haysie]

You're not a real brewer until you ---
Brew a beer that kicks ass OR

Break Hydrometers and swear a fracto thing is no good cause it doesnt do FG.
Worse still, you visit Woolies Wanda range and buy a hydrometer that reads MAXIMIUM 1040 :blink: wow whatabuy.
OR
Skimp on a pump, wear thongs or none, no clamps etc etc burns burns burns whilst brewing.
:unsure:

........................... you've left a HLT/mash tun/kettle/fermenter tap open and seen you're lovely sweet liquor/wort/beer disappear down the driveway.
DAMMIT if I didn't do it again yesterday..........

At your age ....

Your not a real brewer until you read some of these misfortunes and don't at first lament, feel the pain, almost shed a tear ..............

Ya gotta luv this obsession !

 

[Batz]

[jlm]

I think you're not a real brewer until you make a comment about not being a real brewer until you've (insert polarising topic here). And now having done such..........................

 

[np1962]

Until..... you've brewed Dr Smurto's Golden Ale.

[Pollux]

Why am I getting the "you might be a redneck" skit running through my head?

 

[mash head]

Batz

That milk crate owes me nothing Batz.
It kept my gravity setup running smoothly before I finished my HERMES & is a TEMPORARY fixture in the Sharkbait Brewery Beer Garden until I rig up a folding table off the fence to hold my (non-drinking) wife's cuppas.
I get the best chair & the best table available & that is the way the pecking order works at my place. :lol:

Have made 100 batches

Pocket Beers,

I am afraid that seeing I have only got my 90th AG bubbling away, I am only 9\10ths (or 90%) of a real brewer.
