People who are kind enough to try my pepper sauces - something to know... if they& #39;re too hot you can cut them without changing the flavor profile too much.
My base mix is 66% Filtered Water, 33% Vinegar (mostly cider vinegar) - so if you want to cut it to cut the heat - that& #39;s my golden ratio.

Open up the bottle, pour it in a pot, add in the extra liquid, cook for a few (until boil) let cool, re-bottle.
Same for modifying base flavor profile - most of these are very pepper forward and if you& #39;ve never had a really hot pepper - they kind of have a funk.. .it& #39;s not like bell / jalapeno
I use things like sugar, honey, molasses, or splenda to add sweetness (and body). So if the Ghost sauce isn& #39;t sweet enough or you are punched in the nose by the garlic - just add stuff like sweet or a complimentary savory note - boil and re-bottle.
Every time I have people in my house try it they say "it& #39;s not sweet enough" but I wanted to showcase the pepper flavors - not make a BWW wing sauce.. .but you can! Enough brown sugar and honey with a fat (butter) will make a good wing glaze.
Lastly, I didn& #39;t use a lot of xanthan gum in these batches - so there will likely be some separation - so shake well before using.
Peru 2: Habanero base with a few super hots thrown in, a chile lime spice blend, cumin, garlic, lime juice, and lime zest.

Ghost: Red Ghost Pepper base with a few more hots thrown in - bourbon (cooked out), brown sugar, and garlic.
There are a few random 2 oz bottles of "Passion Fruit".

Also a habanero base (I had a lot) with a passion fruit concentrate, honey, brown sugar, and molasses.

That one is, in fact, sweet... and hot. My wife tasted it and said (lovingly) "It& #39;s good but I want to punch you" :)
