    fermenting Kahm Yeast early on in a long term ferment. What should I do?

    Thankfully, it looks like I may have some time for further thought on the question of processing. It's been three days since I did the brine flush and whilst the Kahm yeast has regrown, I can't see any signs of mold. So I'm still leaning towards just leaving it for a while yet. Not least...

I'll be sure to read it before I process my current batch, or make the next one, which I've already got lots...

    bottling Need some guidence in regards to processing and bottling my first sauce.

    Hi everyone! I''ve just made my first ever fermented hot sauce... or rather, three. A scotch bonnet, carrot, and garlic sauce. A smaller batch of the same but with 400% more garlic. And another batch that has the same ratio of peppers, carrots and garlic but with some added spices, some foraged...

    Hi everyone!

    Hi everyone, My name is Charles and after my favourite hot sauce was discontinued, I decided that there was no time like the present to finally fulfil an ambition of mine, and make my own fermented hot sauce (in the hopes of recreating the discontinued sauce). The discontinued sauce in...
