You realise it's an addiction when...

you get home from work to realise you have more hops in the freezer than food.

Or when most of the fruit and veg in the freezer is reserved for wine making ;-)

When the first thing you do when you get home is check the fermentation vessel, give it a cuddle and tell it about your day.

That's made me spit my tea out 😊

Aaaah, so I'm not the only one?

have to buy an additional shed to store the equipment............

Everytime you pass the fermenter you sniff the airlock and tell the wife for the millionth time how wonderful it smells!

When you worry that an alcoholic tramp may take up residence in your shed on account of there being seemingly unlimited beer inside!

... you go into the garage in the evening just to listen to the gentle "glub-glub" of an airlock!

It never interrupts, never criticises, never asks daft questions or says anything more than "glub-glub" ... :) :)

... but what a conversationalist. :thumb: :thumb:

..you start to not be so bothered about your misses watching RomComs over the course of an afternoon to evening time slot

More worried about the young lad, who would likely not get far in his drunken state, but bet we would get blamed for getting him drunk, rather than him getting in trouble for stealing it.

Your missus asks you if you are unwell if you haven't mentioned brewing before lunchtime.

The audible manifestation of my future drunkenness..

 

[Alexislife]

Everything the misses says sounds like "glub-glub" but it's nicer hearing it from the FV

 

[stpete]

You mention in passing to your doctor that you homebrew and he orders a liver function test...
