Most "synthetic" drugs are inspired by natural products. I attended a lecture by Bruce Roth (the guy who created Lipitor) and most drug chemisty research starts with a known natural product, and a new drug is designed based on the 3D structure of the natural product, oftentimes making...

Scoville is essentially a concentration unit. If numerous samples are taken, the average of samples of 50k product would be 50k. Easy way to remember it is 1 tsp 50k + 2 tsp 50K = 3 tsp 50k; it is not an additive process.

My hat's off to ya man...that's a great idea. You just made a lot of people on here envious of you Canuk.

I stand by my own recommendation :onfire: It doesn't have other peppers, has a minimum amount of vinegar, and doesn't have other spices sharing the palate, and the heat won't disappoint. Ace is good, but its spices, most notably black pepper, in it. I just don't know if you can get Cape Fear...

Uncle Big, this is the first ingredient listed on your Killer sauce. Could you shed some light please because I was wondering the same thing. I noticed that Hatari Bros. sauces have a similar taste component...almost like cumin and I was wondering if that was from the "Hatari" ingredient...

Haven't had Nucking Futs, Liquid Stoopid, Talon, Chai, Wanza's, but the rest are pretty good. Kato's is the only tomatillo sauce I like (namely because I'm not a tomatillo person...yet), Fatalii fire is good *IF* you like Fatalii - some people don't like the taste as it has a different taste...

Actually, I keep a spreadsheet that contains info on every sauce I try. The notes aren't very detailed, but I usually give a sauce two classisifications based on peppers/type, a heat scale, and some brief notes on my impression of the sauce, so I have a compiled record. I was consulting it...

Highly recommended. This sauce reallly showcases the savina's flavor.

Figueroa Bros. mainly market to the novelty / "I have no clue what I'm doing" crowd, and in my hot sauce infancy I bought a few. Suffice it to say they are all on my "try before I buy" mental list.

If you know what kinds of peppers/sauces you like, then what you may want to do is look at the ingredients (sweatandspice.com usually lists them) and then give us a list for feedback. Based on your other posts, my impression is that flavor is secondary to heat for you, so I don't know how much...

Use it however you normally use sauce...enjoy it!

AGREED!

I'm with THP...I would think that the same recipe would get a similar result, even if the judges are different. I'm not an expert - hell if I were a judge I'd name myself winner for being smart enough to get the job of chili judge - but in my mind, the same process should produce the same results.

Here we go Steelers- HERE WE GO! 3-0, and 4-0 doesn't seem unachievable with the Cards up next.

Yes, but you could simulate the taste of extract sauces by licking a dogs crotch...by the way, anyone see the commercial for "The Sara Silverman Show" where they show her tasting a dog's crotch after seeing the dog do it? Ugh...nasty!

Mostly webbots and search engines, and besides I don't know if people want to join a site if they are being called names.

Like any other chemical, your body can build up a tolerance to capsacium. It's no different than caffiene, herion, cocaine...you build up a tolerance to a chemical you frequently encounter.

Latex gloves aren't worth a damn when it comes to chemical permiability; I don't even bother with latex gloves in the lab. You need nitrile gloves, but they cost more. You get what you pay for...

If that's a draft, I can't wait to see the finished version (and try your product).

Looks like a slug...am I missing something?
