Sorry to report:
Actually his job is being replaced by a new type of glass processing facility that takes a full grown chile, holds it in the mold and then injects
the liquefied glass around the chile.  This prevents contamination from the outside environment, undesirably small or imperfect chilies from being
bottled.  The new process is in the experimental stages at the present time and has had the most success bottling Chipotle beer, as the hot glass
tends to cook and slightly toast the chilies as the process occurs.  There are some newer technologies being tried with water glass where heat is not
generated in the forming process.  Stay tuned for further developments..
