fermenting Making some thangs, Puree, hot sauce, ferment.

I  got  a  few  peppers to  process and was  thinking about trying my hand at either fermenting, AJs Puree  or a mash... not that I really know the differences between mash and ferment. 
 
What I do have on hand are large ball jars, regular jars, kosher salt, pickling salt,  two flip top lids with  airlocks that fit  them, ph probe and a handful of peppers.

Both of these  taste good enough I think they would make really nice hot sauces in the future. 
 
I don't have any starter so I suppose i'd have  to go for Wild Fermentation.
 
I'll give  AJ's  Puree a try as well. Maybe smoke some over alder.

Looking good man. That puree looks and sounds fantastic. I just opened up a jar of my pecan smoked chocolate mix puree yesterday and holy hell. It may be the only way I go from now on. So Damn good and enough burn to feel it still today. Those vinegars look great, but I have a feeling they won't last long. I made a datil vinegar with an old Frank's bottle earlier in the summer, I've refilled the vinegar probably 5 times now. For that I just julienned the datils, threw in some garlic and peppercorns, then 50/50 acv and distilled white. Gonna make another batch soon with much bigger bottles. Another puree coming soon too with yellow MoA, Jay's PGS, and peach bhut
