So you think that the vinigar is the culprut of taking the heat away from the sauce I forgot to mention also i added half a lime to it too.

I've never made a chilli sauce but I'd just double the number of chillies in it, (there might be a reason why this wouldn't work).

Are you sure your bhut pods are the real thing? Even if the person who sold you the pods or seeds to grow them fully believed they were 100% they might have accidentally crossed.

I once cooked ALL of the heat out of a Habanero pod. Still not sure how I managed it?

You could just not put any vinegar in at and use a tablespoon of lime juice. I would go a step further and put everything into a sanitized container with 2 tablespoons of whey from a tub of plain yogurt then add a teaspoon of salt to a cup of warm water and pour over the top. Put the lid on and allow to ferment for 60 days. Won't loose any heat and the flavor will be alot better.

I don't know if this will help, but when my sauce is too hot, I cut some tomato paste in to cool it down. Maybe cut back on the paste and then you can add it if you need to.

I would have thought the previous recipe would have decent heat. If this second recipe is not hot I would have to say that you have some bum pods. Have you tried a bit of it straight? 1/2 oz of jolokia powder should be quite hot for these proportions. I make a hot wing sauce and it takes 1 tablespoon added to 1/2 cup wing sauce and the results are very hot wings.
