I’m following the same process I use for other fermentation without issues in the other ones, 2% salt to water, mason jar with a bubbler, I actually go over and above with this one because I’ve had problems… I double clean everything, I use acid sanitizer from beer brewing to make sure the jars and lids and everything is clean, I don’t leave it uncapped unless I’m working next to a candle (a technique to keep falling spores out of yeast samples from home brewing)

I’ll try adding some fresh peppers in just for the lacto and try again.
