Lacto fermentation

[Evan B]

I haven't tested the pH, but it's on par with sauerkraut I typically make and I like sour things. I just consider it an active ferment and therefore "fridge stable". I just monitor for mold or off smells, which has never happened on a hot sauce for me.

That pepper powder trick sounds awesome. The wife would surely be irritated if I brought a dehydrator home though.

There's nothing irritating about having a dehydrator. Especially if you grow peppers

Just find a nice covered area outside to use it.

I thought mine would get used twice a year. Actually gets used twice a week now. Especially since I started making my own dog treats.

Good idea but don't they get stuck in your teeth?

Gary, if you ever want to borrow a dehydrator hit me up. We have like 4 or 5 of them.

My dental plan consists of "guess I'm chewing on this one side of my mouth now," so these are crucial for my dental health. Just like they are for my dogs.

Thank you, I'll likely take you up on that!
My mom used one a lot when I was a kid, LOTS of fruit leather was consumed
