Hot Sauce Batch 20 – Entry 3
It’s the first day of Autumn and the peppers are coming in hot and heavy. I’m picking around one pound every couple of days right now, which means I’ll be moving the peppers to the five gallon fermenter this week.
The weather has been very warm so the initial ferment is off to a good start. It smells spicy and yeasty, which tells me the lacto ferment is happy. Once I pitch it to the big fermenter, things should really take off.

I’m just a guy with nearly an acre of dirt, a nice little mid-century ranch house and a near-perfect climate. But in my mind I’m a landscaper survivalist craftsman chef naturalist with a barbeque the size of a VW and my own cable TV show. I like to write about the stuff I build, grow and see here at Sage's Acre.
