Welcome to the Borg Wilson! Glad you made it!!

Wilson! Now we have to teach the old borgers what a Wilson is!

Wilson's Law,

Wilson was not an Optimist,

He knew better, He knew that if he dropped a piece of buttered bread it would fall buttered side down 10 out of 10 times.
Did this stop this man. No he persevered on in spite of his terrible luck................
and decide to start brewing his own beer

Wilson's Ten Laws of Brewing Beer at Home:

1. If it can happen it will happen, so don't even worry about it, just be prepared.
2. Wort will scorch to the bottom of the pot every time, so just go out and buy steel wool you'll need it.
3. As long as you watch your wort it will not boil over, "but drop your whisk just once, and turn your back on the stove and Poof! it will be all over the stove, the walls, your kids, and the dog".
4. Hop Pellets will stay fresh in your freezer until they are opened, The act of which by the way, will cause them to fly all over the kitchen floor.
5. The lid on your LME/HME will always fall into the can creating a sticky mess.
6. One Step is not always,
7. The spigot of your keg will never leak until your bottling your most expensive batch of beer, then it will stick wide open and flood the kitchen floor.
8. When pitching Yeast it is best to wear a helmet......
9. Bottles of Home brewed beer will only explode when you've gone away for the weekend and left them sitting on your Wife's brand new white rug.
10. It is a given that you will trip and drop your keg as you climb up the steps to your brew closet.

Glad you joined us! Draw yourself a beer, pull up a chair, and get to postin!

Hey Wilson. Glad you made it here!

Wow, I just saw Herb too. It's been years.

All hail Wilson.
Good to hear from you old timer

I'm touched, I can't believe the Herb has my original 10 laws.
Thanks again for the warm welcome.
I need to find my way around the board now.....
That and get some brewing done.

I hope you are feeling better
