fermenting My 1st shot at Fermenting-end results

[Gargoyle91]

So I grew a bunch of peppers and wanted to make hot sauce Turns out to be a bit harder than I thought!!!   I start my ferment with 2 and a half pounds of peppers I grew in my garden, Everything is great lol 6th day I grew a nice film of Kahm yeast and decided to pull it and save what I could. 
 
Started with-

 
 
1-Took my mash put it in a blender was 6 cups 
 
2- Added 4 cloves garlic 1/4 carrot and a 1/4 onion and a half TBS of salt
 
3- Blended it all together blended the crap out of it
 
4-Boiled it for 25 min
 
5- Strained it with a grape press ended up with 4 cups of juice 
 
6 - added the juice of one lime and and a bit over a half cup of apple cider vinegar
 
tasted ok but needed something
 
8- Added 2 TBS of brown sugar
 
Now it's not bad taste like a roasted Tabasco with a bit more kick cant wait for it to age a few weeks.
 
Ended with---Yep that's all I got

G91,
 
It sure looks like a great sauce. Don't feel like you are in a hurry just cause you got a kham film. No worries to leave it alone till your ready, just scape it off

It was still missing something tonight when I tried it.. So I added 1 tablespoon of honey and the juice of half a lime  to each bottle and blended for 10 min now it's delicious!  Before it had a taste of the pepper skins all most a sour sweet taste but was going away the longer it sit in the fridge But now with the honey and extra lime It's really good- Hope the Honey also act as a binding agent. What was strange is I had 4 bottles from the same batch 2 separated in the fridge and 2 didn't beyond logic for me.

I've had this happen too - bottles that came from the beginning of the batch separated and those at the end didn't.  Next time around I really gave it the go to with the immersion blender prior to bottling and no more separation.  Not bad at all for a first time Gargoyle!!

Congrats Gargoyle....
Nothing like a success story to build one's confidence and crank up ideas about the next ferment.
Looks very good.
