[Jflo69rmnp]

I brewed an Imperial Red Ale today… Getting ready to boil!!

Awesome Jim, I hope it was a fun, stress-free brew day.

Looks so warm.

You’re either single or the wife is out all day Christmas shopping and has no idea that these shenanigans are happening in her kitchen lol

[brewinhard]

Man, that reminds me of the kitchen in my last house!  I use to do the same 3 tier thing as well, except I would collect directly onto the stove to heat my wort up before carrying it outside for the big burner!

[duboman]

Haha, that pic reminds me of my very first…and last batch I was ever allowed to brew indoors:(

How’d you guess?? Haha!!

It was a fun time! I had my son help me with the heavy stuff…

My wife was VERY happy when I took brewing outside! I was happy to bring it back inside… to my shop about 5 years ago.

I’m not alone I see! The first time I boiled over my wife was not happy. She still lets me brew on the stove with my 1 gal brews.

My wife brews with me in our kitchen.  She can’t be the only one.

My girlfriend wouldn’t care if I was brewing in the living room as long as I’m making beer. We actually have 6 carboys of mead in secondary in our bedroom. Its romantic.

Aren’t you the guy with the basement all prepared for the zombie apocalypse complete with 20 or so carboys aging?

Yep, those are in tertiary aging. Secondary happens upstairs for a few months.

My wife is OK with it… She’s tolerated my hobbies for the last 20 years! 'Course I make sure it’s all cleaned up when I’m done… She appreciates that. [emoji6]

My brew days are limited to when I have a day off while my wife is working. She can’t stand the smell, with the exception of bottling days for my hoppy beers - that is the rare time when I get a “what smells so good in here?”.

As a matter of fact, I’m working 3rd shift right now and my wife will be at work when I get home. I’m already trying to figure out how much sleep I can get by with to see if I can squeeze in a brewday.
