I am going to try them since you said that. i bought a ph meter from leeners a few weeks ago and it did not work right. I called them, sent it back, and they refunded me this week. They said they are going to start stocking a different meter due to all the trouble they have had with it. Wish...

Thanks. I saw some digital scales on amazon withh a ton of reviews and most all of them were good for 25$ i think it went from 1gram to 11Lbs. But before i get them i am going to get me a ph meter. I heard i think you and some other talking about that one that sper scientific has, the ph pen...

CM.... Thanks for the info. Things are a lot more clear now. Just playing the waiting game with my garden now. I got a lot of peppers out there, just not fully mature yet. I guess i am going to start picking all the ripe peppers that has turned color and put them in the freezer until i get the...

What is the difference than going by weight and then by brine with the 3.5%? Since i do not have good scales i was just going to use the brine and my kefir starter to start my ferment. Then when it gets done or where i want it, put it in the fridge to keep to use when i get ready like you just...

Looks and sounds awesome! what did you mean by the 12% ?

I was thinking about putting them in the freezer until i had the amount i wanted to ferment. Will freezing effect fermenting them in anyway?

It will be hard, but will not open. What about if i see any of the white yeast growing on top in the jar? I am guessing just leave it until it is time to open my jar. Thanks RM

This is a good site to start on http://www.uga.edu/nchfp/index.html Myself. i love using apple cider ving to can my peppers with. Most of the time i use a 1:1 ratio, or more ving because i like them sweet. I add canning salt and garlic. I boil all my jars before hand, and i boil my brine up that...

So you think it is ok to open your airtight to get a taste here and there? i was wanting to, but i got worried i maight get nasties in there. Just wondering your thoughts. Thanks

CM...yea, i keep my kefir going so i always have some on hand to drink. I ferment it every 48 hours. I drank it for the health benefits and i like the taste. Been doing it for a few years now. I will take a break every now and then. Just store it in the freezer to stop the process, then start it...

It is already starting to ferment with the whey i used from my kefir. Has a good smell to it as well. I went and put more whey up i strained off my kefir in the fridge for my next bigger batch. now waiting to get more mature hot peppers. question...since i am using a good starter, should i still...

Thanks for the infor. I am going to strain some of my kefir i make to use the whey from it as a starter. I am now looking for things in the house to use as weight to hold down my mash under the brine. I washed and clean everything good, but next time i will boil everything to stay on the safe...

I did a small batch of hot peppers a few days ago. I did not use a starter, just a 5.4% salt/water brine. I also used a airlock. And the same thing hapened to me last year, it has already got the white stuff on top. Granted the mash did come up out of the water some. It does not smell bad or...

I make a jam using 4c strawberries, 1c jalapeno, and only 1hab then follow the instructions on back of the pectin box and also adding a little from another box of pectin. It works great and taste even better. Its a little spicy. My next batch, i am waiting for my peppers to mature more, i am...

2p0p...I make my own kefir so this would work great with me, its always on hand. Do you strain your kefir and use the liquid whey or the kefir grains? I have also heard that it may change the taste some. Have you noticed any change in taste when using kefir as a starter with peppers?
