Hi guys,
Over the last year i've set up a hydroponic grow tent in my kitchen. I have yellow scorpions and 'mini habaneros' from puckerbutt growing in there.
My plan is to harvest them and ferment.
Since this is my first go at an indoor plant i may have trimmed a little too much and as a result i dont have a huge harvest, so I'd like to freeze them until Im ready to ferment. I have a vacuum sealer for this.
I also just found out about vacuum fermentation, which seems like a safe option. I'm guessing since these are indoor peppers, there aren't much wild yeasts floating around in the tent, so i'm not even sure fermenting them fresh would work.
So my plan is to:
1. Harvest and freeze ripe peppers in vacuum bags until i have enough to start a batch.
2. Create a starter sourdough yeast (from the sticky on this forum).
3. Create a mash with some garlic and salt, add some yeast starter and hope for the best.
Any issues with this plan? suggestions?
Thanks!
