Still debating if i'm going to run it through the mill or leave as is. Don't want it to set up like applesauce but don't want it liquidy either.

Run half and mix together.

That's an old consistency trick I started to do with beans. Black beans, baked beans... take 1/4 of the beans and mash them like refried and add them back to the pot. Consistency can be multi-step doesn't have to be 100%.

I ran it all through the mill with the medium attachment. Was barely any pulp left behind. I'll call that good.

Some Jerky for work
 

 

 
Color ended up more of a baby shit green, too many red peppers in the mix. 
 

 
Got 10 bottles out out of it. 9  5oz woozies and a 10 for myself.

Had some at lunch today. could of used a little more vinegar or maybe some lime juice. It's good, but needs a little more tang.

Quick Label for last nights sauce
 

 
One these days I will get the sizing right. I set the canvas to the label size but when I copied image into the avery sheet it was undersized and distorted a little bit when I stretched.

Looks pretty good to my eyes!

Nice job!

Yes , I like it , straight forward and to the point.
The colour looks better with the label on . Then it looks like fire roasted chili sauce , not baby S...

I have found 2 ways th fix that.

1. The print dialogue box usually has an adjustment feature that allows you to move everything up, down, right, left in small increments.

2. Or on a label like that with a solid background, start with the whole 8x10 sheet as your background color. It will eliminate that white line due to misalignment.

It will eliminate that white line due to misalignment.

I have that problem every time, lol

I redid the label as the fuzzy print was driving me nuts. Made it larger and followed 1010s advice and did background in black on avery sheet. 
 

 
I need to make a label for the El Scorponero sauce that I have 4 bottles left of  and I will print this batch.

That may not be due to the native software settings but printer setup settings. Turn off any scaling or "fit to page" settings, so it prints as is.

it is, I think it was scaling because I was trying to fit a black background image onto the white avery template. we shall see when I print this next batch for the el scorponero sauce, it was for only 4 bottles  so I  didn't spend very much time on this one. 
 
Yes, looks much better and no more fuzzy print.

New left , old right
 

 

 
a  little out of alignment but it was for only 4 bottles. Wasn't going to waste much  time. Gave up on Gimp it's too hard to navigate so did it on paint.net. Only problem is that once you navigate away from a text box you can't move it again short of hitting undo a bunch of times

Looking good. When I have some time. I will mail you a few sheets of those other labels. That way you can try them. There is no way I am going to ever use all of them.

That would be awesome!

Looks good. GIMP sucks! Why don't you get Photoshop in the cloud? It's only $9.99 per month. The benefit of subscription software is, you always have the most recent version and updates.

. I was trying to register for their free trial and they never sent me the confirmation email. Tried several times, not in spam or anything so just gave up

 

[The Hot Pepper]

It's worth it for $9.99.
