Hola from Sonoma

Hi everyone,
Moved to Sonoma 2 years ago after 25 soggy years in Seattle.
I was raised in Louisiana and can not recall the last meal I've had without hot sauce or chile. 
I have been making my own Louisiana style hot sauce for over 20 years. 
It has always been a hobby product but the batches keep getting bigger as the demand grows.
I am presently growing and farming the chiles and will bottle about 1000 bottles in January.
I'm trying to get a release date mid Feb.
I have several questions that I posted today regarding stopping fermentation and easiest ways to fill woozy bottles.
Thanks and Happy New Year!

Welcome to THP from a fellow pepperhead in Sonoma  :dance:
 
I can't wait to try your sauce!
 
Scott of "Lucky Dog Hot Sauce" is a member here and would be a great resource for advice. He also makes his sauce here in Sonoma.
 
:welcome:  to the THP forums from SC!! I'll always love Louisiana- spent a number of years growing up there when I was young in a small town named Minden (Webster Parish.) Such fond memories of grandma's gumbo (made with the best 'chocolate' roux for okra or file', or a 'peanut butter' roux for chicken...), crawfish boils with family & neighbors, church 'functions' with all the covered dishes and fixens' one could dream of (soul food!!), eating enough shrimp till my mom said I'd turn pink like a flamingo... on and on I could go!  :P Such wonderful times! I can only imagine and I'd certainly bet your sauce is excellent (20 years making it... has to be!) Lots of people here who can help and answer the questions you have! Nice to have you here.
 
Welcome from Australia.
Just started my hot sauce journey. So I am at the other end of that journey.

I hope my Okra seeds planted this week come up....
 
Thanks everyone! My pleasure to meet you all as well. 
Happy New Years to each of you.
Going to get this party started in 2016!
 
It's a New Year! Light your Life on Fire!!
 
Hugs & Hot Sauce,
Deb Rock
