Ready to ferment without worries that what you make will poison those who eat it? I have six tips to wash away the worry and elevate your fermentation game to the next level!

​Best Fermentation Tips [Embrace those B.U.G.S.S.S.]​

It stands for Bacteria, Under The Brine, Great Ingredients, Scale, Salt, and Simply Enjoy.

BUGSSS because it's the bacteria, a microscopic "bug" that makes fermentation happen. The better that you understand who they are and how they work, the better you can set up a proper home for them to do their best work possible.
