Well BQC has been around for almost a year. It's having a bit a resurgence right now. Currently is exchanged on Bter.com Check out the website and forum for more information. Either way your hot sauce looks amazing. I have a coffee roaster and need to update my website to accept bitcoin. Did you run into any problems implementing bitcoin payments on your website?

It all looks so good, I can't decide what to order first!   :'(

No gallon jugs of Melinda's?  Well that just makes it harder.

We use a merchant service called BitPay that integrates with our shopping cart. What shopping cart do you use? They integrate with a lot of them. It's a very easy process.

Unfortunately no Melinda's gallons at this time, but I'll definately make a note that you were interested.

My business partners and I were just talking about beer pairings! We are definately going to do something with pairings soon. Either an article or a special section. Is there any beer pairing content in particular that you'd be I retested in? For instance, recipes with hot sauce and beer pairings, beer pairings in the descriptions, it's own section, how to pair beers with sauces, all of the above... :)

I notice you have the Heartbreaking Dawn's sauces.  I'm a huge fan of their 1498 sauce, one of the first to use the deadly Trinidad Scorpion pepper (mellowed out a bit with Scotch bonnets).  Unlike many of the sauces marketed as "extreme" sauces, this one actually has flavor and can be used as-is.

Yes, we have several Trinidad scorpion sauces... The hottest non-extract sauces you can buy.

Is there any beer pairing content in particular that you'd be I retested in? For instance, recipes with hot sauce and beer pairings, beer pairings in the descriptions, it's own section, how to pair beers with sauces, all of the above... :)

How about listing 1-5 suggested beer pairings (by brand and/or type) for each sauce and an introductory article explaining the logic behind them?

This process could be automated by tagging your sauces (savory, smokey, sweet, tart, fruity, painful, etc.) and doing a lookup against an existing database of beer (BA or Ratebeer's).  You'd have to write the matching algorithm (If [hot=true and savory=false] Then [suggest=Pilsner]).

You could get fancy and have a reverse search too, so we can look up which hot sauce to get according to what beer we have/like.

*clicks 'Beer -> Sauce search'*
*clicks 'Stone Brewery' logo*
*selects 'IPA' from dropdown menu*
*enjoys expertly selected salsa pairing perfectly*

Could you commission a vendor to create a Bitcoin-only "Satoshi's Secret Sauce?"  I'm thinking that would be a souped-up Sriracha with grilled pineapple/pluot instead of sugar, less garlic, Scotch Bonnet, a pinch of celery seed and fresh cilantro, plus a shot of tequila and a splash of single malt.   ;D

Not there for me, even tried creating an account.

I'm stuck on "Step 1 of 3", it display a shipping option, but clicking on "Continue" takes me back to 1.

This is currently the only shipping method available to use on this order.
United Parcel Service (1 x 4.60lbs)

Perhaps it is something to do with selecting UK as the country.

Wow, this is a great post!!! I'm really glad we decided to post here...

All those ideas are great and really got me excited it incorporate beer into the site.

We can create private label sauces and that's a great recipe. And a great idea to make it BTC only. If and when we do this, I'll personally send you a free bottle. That recipe sounds delicious!!

I've been working with OpenYourEyes and if you live outside of the US I will have to create a custom order for you so please pm me if you are interested in a buying. There is an issue with international shipping and the site won't process correctly, we can absolutely ship outside of the US while we work on this issue though.

These guys have a great selection of sauces and excellent service.  Someone accidentally dropped one of my 1498 Heartbreaking Dawn scorpion pepper sauces on the floor and it broke.  The house had to be evacuated and people were acting like they'd been tear gassed.  I was pretty impressed.  That isn't even the hottest sauce I have.

The Heartbreaking Dawn series of sauces is one of my favorites.  They generally use the hottest of peppers, but blend them in a way that there's a lot more to the sauce than just heat.  I particularly like what they've done with the scorpion pepper and ghost pepper.  These sauces are by no means mild, but there are actually well-considered flavors in addition to the peppers, and in a recipe that lets you taste some of the subtleties, like the fruity undertones of the ghost pepper.  Usually, the ghost pepper has such a rapid attack that you only get a second or two of its actual taste before your head explodes.

I usually now prefer this kind of sauce to the extreme sauces like the Dave's Insanity blends, because those often rely solely on the bludgeon-like use of the pepper to the exclusion of any actual taste.  (But I did get one Dave's product, the Insanity Spice which is basically red savina peppers sprayed with capsaicin.  Like the pizza topping but mind-blastingly hot.  I recommend it.  Even used in barely visible amounts, it kicks any dish up a notch.)
