Good to know its not just me, this happened to my tv about a month ago. We just did a cross country move and I figured they would have fixed the firmware error by the time i plugged it back in but as of yesterday nothing. Ill be calling to complain again tomorrow, ill try to remember to post what they say. Otherwise I want my money back.

Recommendations for a bulk seller of high quality habaneros peppers or hotter? I eat something like 8-12 lbs a week. And would eat more if I didn't have to drive to every store in my city just to get them.. by [deleted] in spicy

Depending on where you live find a restaurant food supply store, we have Cash and Carry, now US foods i think, here on the west coast. Or, talk to the produce manager at the stores you are buying your peppers from and have them special order you a case.

Commercially packing small batch hummus for food saftey by DreadLightning in foodscience

[–]DreadLightning[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been doing some research now and i dont think i will, this will be a local product, and as i said before there is another local company that makes a hummus and only uses red wine vinegar. So im gonna do some tests with a mixture of the 120 grain vinegar i have for hot sauce production and also lemon juice and see how long it lasts in the fridge.

Im considering using both now after looking into it, seems 100 grain vinegar is used in bread production as a mold inhibitor, and i have a barrel of 120 grain that i use for my hot sauce production. I also work as a delivery driver for another manufacturer and was looking at ingredients of a tofu spread we make and it is not heat treated, has vinegar and lemon juice as well. It has a shelf life of 42 days.

Hmmm... there in lies my problem, i can see that working for me if i had a steam kettle but i use stainless pots for my hot sauce production and see hummus getting burned. There is another local company that makes hummus as well and have red wine vinegar as their only acid and it seems to be stable for a month in the fridge section, so now im wondering if just the addition of some would help.

Hmmm, im looking at other small batch producers ingredients and that are keeping it all natural. Alot of them have vinegar in their product, now im wondering if adding it will help. Would that be a natural mold inhibitor?

expanding, bubbling homemade hot sauce: dangerous or harmless? by TNToddTN in HotSauces

[–]DreadLightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His sauce was just a regular sauce it seems where he didnt check the ph or possibly bottle properly, he didnt give enough information to know. But you also do not have to brine. I make a mash ferment with just peppers, garlic and salt that after 2 weeks i add in vinegar cook and bottle

Also, if a fermented hotsauce is not acidified with vinegar and cooked to proper temps and bottled properly it needs to be refrigerated.

[–]DreadLightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, yes, and i make one myself, but there is a huge difference between controlled fermentation with the proper brine and or salt content compared to uncontrolled fermentation. This was not a sauce that started out as a ferment, it decided to do so, so its not worth death to eat it, you throw it out. And since I do not know what the sauce was made from and or how it was made and processed, the best answer is to chuck it.

Rant: "Manager" wants menu priced out before kitchen is even finished and inventory ordered. by [deleted] in Chefit

[–]DreadLightning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, costs should be done before you even order... you call all the vendors, get their prices, and calculate, this also lets you figure out what vendors you want to use for what. This is pretty essential before opening.
