I've probably made more enemies with my ho-made sauce precautions than with 
my obnoxious pepper gardening pix and video postings on various forums and 
lists.  Either freeze your sauce, refrigerate and consume within a couple 
days or buy the dam stuff if you aren't willing to use modern (post '94) 
USDA approved preserving methods.  And buy American.  I've probably received 
as many ho-made and commercial sauces as gifts as the vast majority of you 
and trust me, some are really frightening.  Some countries do not have the 
same safety standards as the USA.  (I am not talking abt Canada, England, 
Australia etc.)

BTW...  JimC is smart enough not to try any of my concoctions LOL!

Know your source, be safe...  always use condiments

One who pretends to be in the know replied off list.  Repeated (in brief)
here:  Target pH is 4.5 or lower.  Most home test equipment isn't that
accurate so shoot for below 4.0 to be safe(r).  My stuff is in the 3.1 to
3.8 range.
