You guys ever felt the need to add more heads just so you don't overindulg in your product.

Re: lack of heads
Never - alcohol by itself is poisonous enough already without all that.
Re: lack of heads
Nope. I just toss a little water and a couple ice cubes in it and sip.

Re: lack of heads
if you dont want to over indulge put it all somewhere high and under something heavy. a drunk man on a stool trying to get at it will have dificulty.

Re: lack of heads
Lol.great idea but I see me picking glass out of my arse after falling off the stepladder with a bottle. Its only causing a problem with keeping a stash so not really a problem. Solution... bigger fermenter!!! That'll fix it:-)WooTeck wrote:if you dont want to over indulge put it all somewhere high and under something heavy. a drunk man on a stool trying to get at it will have dificulty.

Re: lack of heads
after posting that i read the rockchucker thread. maybe not the best way to slow consumption.
Re: lack of heads
If you don't want to over-indulge, DON'T...!!! One method would be to dilute to a lower drinking proof... Another would be to become a more responsible drinker... And yet another would be to get out of the hobby if you can't show responsible restraint... Just a quick reality check...

Re: lack of heads
I drink less since I distill my own. I am MUCH more suspicious and finicky when it comes to drink at a bar with friends. This has gotten to a point that I only drink coffee at a place once was my favourite bar because they don't have quality spirits.. maybe Jame$on's is ok to drink sometimes there as it is smooth enough, and quince-pálinka, as I don't have my own and I like the smell of quince.
Huge downside is that I don't like beer as much as before, when I taste it always comes to my mind that it lacks an important step.. double distilling it.
So yeah, I guess it's easy to get spoiled in a way or two.
HD is definitely a lifechanger.

I do limit myself to a half pint a day or less couple cubes of ice.
Its only my stash that suffers lol!
Just thinking a hangover every now and then could. Help my stash from depleting
Best solution I've come up with though is still a bigger fermenter and bigger propane tank.
All comments were made poor humor only...

Re: lack of heads
I can see where your comin from. I used to buy cheap vodka cuz the burn reminded my to take it slow. the good stuff can go down like water way too easily.
This being said I ain't bout to ruin a perfectly good drop to remedy a self control problem.

Re: lack of heads
I know what you are sayin.... At 80 proof (same as store likker) my stuff is so smooth it's hard to realize you are drinking likker... Know what I mean??
God forbid you mix it with something sweet, That would be a show stopper....
My DIL couldn't believe she was drinkin' 80 proof stuff. I had to prove it to her with a alcoholmeter..

Re: lack of heads
Someone told me something interesting once, he said that the definition of an alcoholic was "someone who drinks with a routine" basically he was saying that if you can't break up "the routine" e.g. randomly go a day without drinking, then you have an issue.
Re: lack of heads
I like to roll around with my wife on Saturday afternoons. Does that make me a sexaholic too? I'm gonna keep enjoying a pour after dinner and not worry about labels

PS I like the label "alcohol enthusiast." Describes me, and us, to a tee.

Re: lack of heads
i overindulged last night. a bit of a hangover today but I am saying its from the 5 mirror ponds i drank and not the 6 month old Stuff we drank. Something good really does happen at six months. Tastes so much more like fine drinking liquor. excited to see what a few years does. On another note we took my 50 proof Apple pie i make (which is just SF white dog and spiced apple cider with a cinnamon stick) and blended it with ice.(my buddy got a really nice blender that makes a great smoothie). Apple pie smoothies are awesome! The girls are gonna be drunk this summer at our annual music festival. Im thinking blended lemonade/lemoncello is gonna be a hit too. oh and the strawberry

Re: lack of heads
When I was in AA, (at one point I was out of control) they said you can drink every day and not be an alocholic, and you can drink only once in a while and be one.chris_zx2 wrote:Someone told me something interesting once, he said that the definition of an alcoholic was "someone who drinks with a routine" basically he was saying that if you can't break up "the routine" e.g. randomly go a day without drinking, then you have an issue.
They defined an alcoholic as a person who's drinking affects their health, relationships, or financial situation in a negative way, and would rather drink than correct the situation.
Hangover? I don't get no stinking hangover!
Re: lack of heads
Only time it affects my relationship is when I have whiskey dick... sorry, just a play on another active thread here
