THE SCOVILLE SCALE FOR CHILI PEPPERS The Scoville scale and the heatmeter list numerous chili pepper varieties sorted by their pungency and their capsaicin content in Scoville Heat Units (SHU). We have a simple scoville scale image and a detailed searchable and interactive html5 scoville scale table. History The Scoville scale exists since 1912 and was invented by the American pharmacologist Wilbur Scoville. It serves to determine the degree of pungency of fruits of the genus Capsicum, which includes peppers and chilis. The Scoville scale was originally based on the so-called Scoville Organoleptic Test developed by Wilbur Scoville. Here, a sample of chili was prepared and repeatedly diluted with water until the test subjects no longer felt any heat. The degree to which the subjects could (subjectively) taste no more heat in the sample was called SHU (Scoville Heat Units). Of course, no subjective tests will be carried out today. Determination of the Scoville Heat Units of fruits of the genus Capsicum The degree of pugency of a chili is determined today by means of modern high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This method recognizes the capsaicinoids responsible for the pungency, such as capsaicin and dihydro-capsaicin, and determines their concentration reliably. The result of an HPLC test is given in the ASTA severity level, but this can be converted by a formula into the usual SHU value. Hottest Chili Pepper in the World The world’s hottest chili pepper is the Carolina Reaper. It measures Million up to Million Scoville Heat Units.

In the ghost pepper you have a rock star and internet YouTube sensation. In the Carolina Reaper, you have the blazing up-and-comer that has shocked the world. These are two mega-hot chilies, there’s no doubt. But what are the differences and how easily are they found? Let’s review in our PepperScale Showdown. Table of Contents Carolina Reaper Vs. Ghost Pepper: The heat The taste Are they available fresh or dried in stores? How many products use these peppers? Overall When you are dealing with the super-hot peppers like these two, the conversation of heat differences is splitting hairs. They are both wickedly hot. They are so hot that it’s best to use gloves to just hold them. The ghost pepper is so hot that it’s used in military grade pepper spray. And the Reaper? Double the ghost pepper heat and that’s where the story begins…or ends…in a mouth aflame. The ghost pepper tips the Scoville scale at a walloping 855,000 to 1,041,427 Scoville heat units. The Carolina Reaper eclipses it at 1,400,000 to 2,200,000 SHU. Let’s put that in jalapeño reference point numbers that we can all grasp: at the minimum, this duo will be 107 times hotter than a jalapeño (the mildest ghost pepper to the hottest jalapeño) and at the max, we are talking 880 times hotter (the hottest Carolina Reaper to the mildest jalapeño). Ay yay yay. Sure the Reaper wins on pure SHU (it is currently the official world record holder), but really gloves and a gallon of milk are needed for eating either of these chilies raw. That’s NOT recommended by the way, but plenty of people go for the ghost pepper challenge. Their real culinary following comes as the foundation for extreme hot sauces and salsas than as a raw cooking pepper. These are just too hot for most everyone unless the pepper extract has been diluted with other ingredients. The taste Both of these peppers have a surprising sweetness to them, but the Carolina Reaper has been bred to be likely the sweetest super-hot pepper of the bunch. You do get to taste these peppers before the heat hits. It’s a slow burn in the case of both chilies – it takes 30 seconds to a minute for the heat to begin to hit and then it intensifies over the period of half an hour before dissipating. The sweetness of both of these chilies is often taken advantage of in hot sauces, by pairing these chilies with tropical fruit and other sweet ingredients. In this way, they share a lot with the milder -yet-still seriously hot – habanero and scotch bonnet chilies, though these two are available in a lot more places. Are they available fresh or dried in stores? Rarely ever fresh. These peppers are just too hot for most stores. Some specialty stores, gourmet supermarkets, and farmer’s markets may carry them, but you’ll need to shop around. You can find dried chilies of both types, as well powders, online. Unless you grow them yourself, these are likely your best options. Dried Ghost Peppers (10 Per Pack) Dried ghost peppers are an excellent alternative when fresh ghost isn't available.

These are two big-name chilies, and there are many hot sauces, mustards, salsas, powders, rubs, and other spicy foods that use them. Through online vendors, you can buy many ghost pepper and Carolina Reaper hot sauces and more. And there are a few brave supermarkets that’ll carry ghost pepper hot sauces. Be sure to check out the PuckerButt Pepper Company too – the growers of the Carolina Reaper. Their store carries a nice selection of Reaper products. Overall Sure the Carolina Reaper is the winner in heat, but the ghost pepper overall is just more widely available – at least in product form. Its reputation has built a cult-like following over the years that’s hard to topple. But the Carolina Reaper’s rep is growing quickly. It has the wicked name, the heat, and the taste to be the new chili pepper rock star. For both of these chilies, use caution. This is spiciness that’s not for the timid.
