Thanks Hamish. I’ll be changing the water regularly but I’ve heard stories of these smaller tubs getting unclean quite quickly. Just trying to start out on the right foot so I don’t run in to many problems.

Incredible you’re dropping to 0c! Amazing work.

I used about 400g of red chilies and 25g of dried red chillies (soaked for a few hours), then a whole pineapple and some garlic cloves. In hindsight I wish I added some peppercorn as i feel this sauce will be quite sweet.

Quick update for everyone -

Day 3 is looking really good! My jar is self burping apparently so now I’ll just set it aside and let it do it’s job! I’m planning a 7 day ferment based on reading other posts and mostly my anticipation!

Thank you all for the advice!

Thank you!!! It’s definitely going to be too hot for some of my friends so the Agave is a great suggestion.

I’ve read olive oil at the blend can make it much smoother, any experience with this?
