Do not fill your containers to the top. I'll let you know when my face stops burning.

    Is that from a jar or the toilet?

  2. Uh, the bathroom is the last place I would park my ferment.

    However, I do appreciate the humor at OP’s expense. Cleaning up red pepper mash/sauce is a major pain. It has happened to plenty of us, just not in the bathroom. Usually hot sauce has this effect AFTER you eat it, not before.

    Man, I learned this when I was like, thirteen trying to make some kinda shit scrumpy with mums bread yeast under my bed lol. 

    The fact that people are still trying to collaborate with living organisms to make food items without much apparent curiosity on food safety or process is so wild to me. 

  4. Just turn on the bidet, close the door and come back in an hour. Problem solved.

    Why were you fermenting in the bathroom

  6. What’s hot sauce doing in the bathroom? At first I thought it was something else….

    They make fermenting jars with airlocks. Now you know why that’s a thing.

    Sucks! In my beer brewing days I had this happen with a 5 gallon batch. Airlock got clogged… I had to repaint the bathroom. LOL!

    Why are you fermenting next to the shitter? Who makes food in the bathroom?

    E-Jen containers are specifically made for fermenting kimchi, sauerkraut etc. they aren’t super cheap but make fermentation so much easier and they contain most of the smell. I have the 1.7 liter and the 6.4 liter size. I’m never going back to mason jars

    Looks like the average gas station bathroom, honestly.
