casey

First time making hot sauce. I let this batch go from 09/26/2022 to 10/01/2024.

Came out amazing.

I did it very simple.

Strained peppers and garlic after removing as much Kahm yeast as I could.

Tossed all of the peppers and garlic in a blender. I added back 1/2 cup of the lacto water and 3/4 cup of white vinegar.

Didn't add anything else and it's phenomenal. It's hot but not too hot (for me). Complex flavors.

I'm not sure where the right place to post this would be, but here goes.

I bought this DW745 Type 2 saw off of Facebook Marketplace. I think it was abused. I replaced both of the elevating shafts (5140100-04 & 5140100-05). I also had to replace both of the bevel gears (5140061-65).

The aluminum housing seems to be okay and the lifting shafts move in and out without much resistance. I'm still getting this chunky movement when I raise and lower the blade.

I'm looking for advice before I go though the whole process of replacing the entire aluminum housing on the motor.

I know I can send soil samples to my local university extension office for testing, but how do I test soil for glyphosate-based herbicides, lead, arsenic, and other contaminates?

As a citizen scientist I'm about to get into composting more on my property and would like to know more.
