Default Habaneros

Hi All,

I thought I'd give a try to Jack's Jalapeno wine recipe. So I go to
Produce Depot here in Ottawa to pick up 8 nice green Jalapenos to make up
for the 1 gallon recipe. Right beside the Jalapenos, I see the Habaneros! I
think to myself "Why not take it to the next level?" So I picked up 6 (3
yellow and 3 red) habaneros to make up another gallon... I used Jack's
recipe but substituted the 8-16 Jalapenos for 4 Habaneros...

Litterature says the Habaneros are between 200 000 and 577 000 Scoville
Units (unit to measure for the heat in chile peppers) and regular Jalapenos
are 2 500 and 5 000 Scoville.

I can't wait to see the end result. Might come out being way too hot for
drinking but if it does i'll just use it as a cooking wine.

Anyone out there crazy enough to have ever tried it with Habaneros ? Let
me know what you think !
