    Day 15 chilli ferment pH test

    Thing is not going to kill me this is a good colour. Using a soil pH test kit (of all things) immediately headed towards acidic. That was a good ferment.

    Going to blend it up tm with some vinegar to punch it down a bit more

      That is so clever!! That way you know it’s safe and actually fermenting properly.

      Fermenting, like, turning into alcohol? I don’t know how I feel about that, but chilli alcohol sounds kinda vile. Then again, I watched a series where a dude turned mountain dew into wine, and another where he turned peeper marshmallows into a mead and it looked kind of interesting.

        Sauerkraut is fermentation. Cheese is fermentation. Pickles are fermentation. Sourdough is fermentation. Not all fermentation is alcohol.
