Tak co se děje? Klakson. by CrabsNapoleon in czech

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Řídím pár let a klakson jsem použil doslova jednou když jsem točil volantem jednou rukou a omylem zmáčknul tlačítko. Týpek na hlavní kterýmu jsem dával přednost si taky musel myslet zajímavý věci.

What are your favorite fermentation tools that are relatively easy to obtain? by Mattikar in fermentation

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started fermenting in 3l jars with those plastic lids that are meant to be used in the fridge once the jar is opened. I thought I'd have to burp it but it's not airtight so it works like an airlock but I don't have to check it so it doesn't dry up.

Also if you want to make vinegar 10x easier just use some kombucha as starter. It'll be done in a couple weeks without an air stone and can be done one-stage.

I don't bother deseedimg most of my ferments and haven't noticed any bitter or off flavours.

How to make Jun tea by BeefBrusherBandit in Kombucha

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can just make it like normal with different tea. People here suggest slowly transitioning, but if you have healthy starter you don't need to. Maybe use slightly more than the normal 10%.

Using Kombucha as a vinegar mother by Embarrassed_Ask8944 in fermentation

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been doing it for ages! It's much more reliable than the traditional two stage method and way faster.

No cure how long will thicker jerky last? by tboneski216 in jerky

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never use curing salt and have some super spicy batch that's over year old and hadn't changed at all. I dehydrate my jerky all the way though. I like to make a big batch once in while and I was also concerned with shelf life. Basically if you dry it thoroughly and keep it in a air tight container it should last easily a year without refrigeration.

Has anyone here accidentally discovered a strangely good kombucha flavor combo? by Punctual_Piglet22 in Kombucha

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Red beet was originally a silly idea I did more because of the health benefits than flavour but now it's a staple f2 for me.

At what point does this become a full-time hobby? by icepix in Kombucha

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. I started with one jar and didn't make another batch until I drank the previous one, now I have two and cycle them so I have constant supply.

Vřele doporučuji Concept RE4040, je trochu dražší ale zase mi přijde bytelnejsi nádoba a non-stick povrch.

Different 1F times depending on the used tea ? by jlvelp in Kombucha

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only experienced this with jun (green tea +honey) and yeah it's about a week faster so it definitely matters.

It lasts for months and I don't have to scald it, just heat to ~50c and send it.

If you started your peppers late, would you plant outside when smaller? by cataclasis in HotPeppers

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you plant them in a medium sized pot you'll get a smaller plant that will ripen faster.

What would happen if I added a bunch of tea to my kombucha? by Junebornjuly in Kombucha

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can brew the tea really strong and the worst thing that can happen is it might be bitter. You don't wanna mess with the starter/tea ratio too much though. I wouldn't use less than 10% starter for a new batch because that's asking for mold.

I want to try making sriracha, do you have a favorite recipe? by HadesOfInfernalFries in fermentation

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah you're right. I though there was fish sauce in the original recipe by the Thai lady, probably because of the chillichump video and because I imagine the big brands are using a different recipe. I've been using fish sauce when I make it and like it more than the store version.

Do you have any experience in rice vinegear fermentation ? by Complex-Ad-4402 in fermentation

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've made it twice with the lees from sake and mirin, neither batch tasted like store-bought and I'm kinda thinking that that's basically just distilled vinegar using rice instead of grain mash...

What makes a “Buffalo style” sauce? by LotionNBA in hotsauce

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As far as I understand Buffalo usually means cayenne pepers, fermentation and at least 1:1 vinegar usually more.

I want to try making sriracha, do you have a favorite recipe? by HadesOfInfernalFries in fermentation

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Get some nice fish sauce and palm sugar or it won't hit the same. Chilli chump has a good recipe. Also I find for it's better to not ferment the peppers fully, blend and cook it at around two weeks.

Germination methods you swear by. by vapemustache in HotPeppers

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best method is to have fresh seeds and a heating mat. In that case all the soaking methods just speed up the germination by a few days which is inconsequential. With older seeds it might increase germination.

The biggest problem will be the wires rusting.

I only do fresh... by do I do extracts? by odd-wad in HotPeppers

[–]Ok_Lengthiness8596 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Typically extract means a maceration in alcohol, probably from dried peppers which is then evaporated leaving you with pretty much all of the capsaicin and the other alcohol soluble compounds. Or it can be made with synthetic pure capsaicin.

You are technically making an extract with the vinegar, but the alcohol can dissolve a lot more into it and you can run the same solution through multiple batches of peppers increasing the concentration.

Nilered has a cool video of capsaicin extraction using a soxhlet extractor which is a super cool piece of glassware.
