I once went almost 3 months without brewing anything. Mostly because I was on medication where it said not to consume alcohol. Once I was better, I brewed a beer and I didn’t forget how. You never forget once you learn how.

I'm so glad to see you back! Just take things at your own pace. Life can get in the way, but this hobby is therapeutic for me. I went 4 months without brewing and decided to brew 3 five gallon batches in 1 weekend! It felt so satisfying to pull that off. I'm not saying brew a ton of beer to get yourself back into it, but you will be fine. I've seen a bunch of your videos, and you are quite a talented brewer. Cheers!

Hi Madam Flora, I am one of those new subscribers from over the summer. Your content is something I love because you don't make standard beer and always have these awesome recipes that are amazing to try. Keep making your beers that you like, and don't worry about the break. I took a break for nearly a year because I was blessed with a new daughter. But I'm slowly getting back into it and its awesome because I'm brewing beers I want to brew and try. For instance, I am currently doing a NEIPA clone of a beer called "Electric Jellyfish" by Pint House Pizza. Because the beer was amazing when I had it while visiting Austin. Not many places where I'm at serve that beer at all, so I'm trying to clone it to the best of my ability. So far, I have had two bad batches. The first bad batch, got infected. The second batch, may be bad but I'm not certain yet. Its the first time I've ever used Kveik yeast and I'm learning so much. What I'm trying to say is: the passion for the hobby you once had will come back. Just try anything you want in your brew: experiment with lager yeast with a belgium style beer...idk, something wild. And don't worry about shooting more videos until you landed a recipe you are wanting to share with the world. RDWHAHB!

You have to take care of head before all else, you did the right thing. I work like 80 hours a week as an executive chef at a busy restaurant in Las Vegas, and with a 3 year old, it feels impossible to brew anymore, so I understand where you’re coming from. I bought clawhammers system almost a year ago, and it’s been sitting around all shiny and brand new. Last week I finally made myself brew, and it’s the best thing I’ve done for myself in a very long time. Can’t wait to see you happy brewing again. Cheers!

Props to you to recognizing when you need to disconnect. I have always thought of doing a brewtube channel but I don't know if I could keep up with the videos. On another note have always wanted to open a small brewery but when your hobby becomes a job it is no longer a hobby. So I admire your honesty and hope all the best for you. Keep it fun and real cause that is why we are here! I always told my daughter playing sports, when it stops being fun, don't play anymore. Hope to see you brewing again!

As a KZitemr who hasn't put out a video in about 3 yrs., I totally understand the burnout. Spending eight hours editing a 20-minute video where you're the videographer, editor, lighting tech, sound tech, the everything else tech, the idea person, and the "star" of the show, it can wear a person down. Do what you love.

I experienced something similar in 2020 and I took a year off before I started making videos again. I was already burned out in 2020 and on June 14th, 2020, my dad passed away. That was like the icing on the cake so I ended up taking a year off from making videos. I ended up making videos again when I got bored.

As a fellow ADHD person, the need to create so that we can have a little sip of serotonin can be overwhelming. And we beat ourselves up when we feel that we’re not engaged enough. My advice is to just take it a day at a time. Maybe instead of planning out a massive brew day where you must must must create magic, just make a single 1-2 gallon recipe that you could mash in your sleep. Bottle carb it. Or make a simple cider from some store bought apple juice, sugar and spices. Just something that can help you assure yourself that “I am in control.”
