i have been drinking commercial beer for about 5 years now(6 to 8 stubbies a night...now i have started home brewing i have noticed some nights i drink 5 or maybe 6 740ml PET bottles of my brew...i hardly wake up with hangovers and feel fine but is this toomuch for the body to handle?

no should be fine

BTW Do you read Sven Hassell Novels??

What dosen't kill you can only make you stronger

If you're doing full strength brews your looking at 12 to 15 odd standard drinks. A binge is (according to the meddico types) 10 or more standard drinks.

Cheers,
Greg

Tell your doctor! He'll have a fit of course! In the mean time, have a read of these and then make your own decision;

happy reading.

Thats a fair whack of grog in a night! But hey dude, its your hobby, and everyone needs one of them, so go for it! Just leave the car keys on the bench!

thats ok then i might go out and buy another fermemter so i can have 2 brews going at a time,my beer never sits longer than 2 weeks and i can honestly say i have never had drinking this ammount give me any problems in life so i will keep doing it as it is a relaxing enjoying thing for me

alcohol is used as a preservative yes?

Well surely it can only keep the liver in top notch condition?

i'll be damned if the government or phsycologists that i frequent can convince me otherwise!

As for buying two fermenters, why not get three?
