    fermenting After fermentation additions

    No. Pasteurization is simply heating the product to, usually, less than boiling to kill pathogens. For example with milk I believe the FDA says 145f for 30 min, or 162f for 15 seconds.     So for us, a lot of people hold 180f-200f for 15 min and then hot fill. Hot filling is taking sanitized...

    fermenting After fermentation additions

    food First Attempt at Powders

    I find that dehydrating supers inside isn't all that bad. I have a 7 yr old and a 9 yr old who hate the smell but it doesn't bother them.

    chinense dehydrating duration? 12 hrs, 1-2 days? chinense specifically
