    Great question and good points! I suppose I’ll find out Thursday. Lol Kinda hard to show on a picture but the very top of the brine looks clear of Kahm and it smells fantastic so I’m pretty confident this batch it’s not ruined! Will see about the taste so either keep it or toss it. Thanks...

    Thanks Jcam, All good advice from you and all, I appreciate that! I’m not overly concerned with the final color 🙂 I’ll just come up with an appropriate name for its color lol I suppose this mix will result in a unique complexity of flavors which is appealing to me… if it doesn’t go south on me...

    Thanks XRay, The fermentation slowed down but still visible active which continued purging air out of the little air space, it looks clean as of now so I think it’ll be ok. Will follow your recommendations and make a call on Thursday when I plan to process it. Here’s a pic as of this morning:

    Update 12/15- My very first fermented pepper sauce: 1 question and pix

    So today I opened my fermentation jar and to my surprise, the Kahm accumulation wasn’t too bad, only the cabbage leaf and a tip of one pepper that were not submerged in brine had some, discarded those, scooped a little unwanted matter out of the brine and wiped off the inside of exposed glass...

    Converting Weber Kettle 22 to WSM with an extension?

    If you’re handy you can make your own extension, go to your big box store; HD or LWs and look for a small roll of 12” aluminum flashing (no paint) and some small screws. Also, metal fabrication shops have many odd sized pieces of thin sheet metal laying around (free). Roll it to fit your grill...
