Following the lead from Jim Campbell, I make pepper mash w/ 2 gals.
white vinegar and 3 gals. pureed peppers.  Seal in 5 gal. plastic pails,
which form a vacuum as they seal, or put into ball jars - bleached
(1T/gallon), along w/ the lids, or boiled in hot water for 20 min.  No
reason to water bath if the pH is low enough.

Do you need to know how to handle 5 gal. pails - haveta burp 'em to get
the air out.
