Frequently asked questions

Some questions and answers are automatically generated.

How long does one 25g pouch last?
Mileage varies widely based on usage. Many customers report going through refills quickly because they use it on everything daily. A 25g pouch will deliver over 800 pushes which is about 3¢ down to 2¢ per push with the quantity and subscription discounts available.
Is the grain size right for grinders?
Yes the coarse grain size is designed to work with push grinders. The package advises to shake the pouch before refilling or use as finer dust at the bottom is more concentrated and hits harder than the larger grains.
What pepper blend is in this?
It contains Ghost, Trinidad Scorpion, and Carolina Reaper peppers in a concentrated Three Kings blend. One customer noted it's 6x the heat concentration of the original Three Kings blend, and warned they can't use much due to the strength of reaper and ghost peppers.
Can I use this on everything?
Yes, customers report putting it on eggs, meat, vegetables, cocktails, and more. Many describe it as versatile enough for finishing, cooking, grilling, or dry brining.
Is the product value for the price?
Many enthusiasts love it and order repeatedly, treating it as essential. However, some note the per-gram cost is high though volume discounts are available when ordering multiples. Given the high potency and typical use, 25g will last many times longer than a comparably priced hot sauce collection and is significantly more nuanced and versatile.
Does it have an off-flavor like vinegar?
Not at all. Customers praise the clean flavor profile and specifically note there's no vinegar taste, making it a clean way to add heat without competing flavor notes. The Hotter Stuff blend has a higher concentration of pepper solids and can feel more powdery and with slower heat buildup as a result.
How much heat does this have?
Most customers praise the heat level as strong and balanced with flavor. Many report it delivers serious spice while remaining usable on everyday food. One reviewer noted they'd moved up from a milder version and found Hotter Stuff delivers well on its name—hot but not overwhelming.
Does it make food too salty?
Customers consistently note you can add significant heat without over-salting. Several mention adding it generously to meals while keeping overall salt content down—the salt base allows the heat to shine without making dishes overly salty.

EXQUISITE FLAVOR & HEAT

Use it on anything and everything. Everything is better with 🔥 Hot Salt. If you don't already know, you'll be amazed.

Hotter Stuff - Hot Salt - 25 grams (.88oz)

Pouches are perfect for refilling Push Grinders, dry brine, cooking, grilling, finishing salt, adding spice to cocktails, living the good life and making every bite delicious!

Our small batch, Hot Salt is coarse sea salt infused with our Three Kings blend of Ghost, Trinidad Scorpion, and Carolina Reaper pepper. Handmade on our farm and packed in a resealable mylar pouches.  It's shelf stable for years and provides an easy and healthy way to dramatically enhance the flavor of whatever you use it with, all without overpowering other ingredients. Tasting is believing, it's delicious.

Flavor notes:  Hotter Stuff takes it up a notch at 6x the concentration of Three Kings. It's everything you love about Three Kings with more heat. 

Grind notes: This is coarse salt with variability in grain size. The largest grains are larger than those you'll find in most coarse or kosher salts and the smallest approach fine grains with a range in between. It is the same blend we use in our grinders. 

Natural, non-iodized: The coarse sea salts we use are natural, unprocessed sea-salts made by solar evaporation of brine and are not iodized.  They are refined by washing with clean saturated salt brine to remove surface impurities, drained of excess moisture, dried, and screened to size before being infused with a solution and mixture of Three Kings (Ghost, Reaper, and Scorpion) superhot peppers.

Amazing Flavor But…

I love this stuff and been subscribed for a few months now. Somehow the granules in my last order were too crushed. Nevertheless it’s still pretty tasty and hot.

Hi Bob!
Thank you for being part of our tribe and for letting me know! Pls check your email, I sent you a separate note.

The residual pepper powder in Hotter Stuff can settle so much more easily than with less concentrated blends that sometimes packets have more of the finer material which not only makes it dustier but it makes it proportionately less salty and hotter. With Hotter Stuff, I recommend shaking both the packet and the pusher before use to get things more evenly mixed after they settle. Thank you! - Alex

I received my order. Thank you.
Can't use a lot due to the reaper and ghost.

Do you make a hot salt that rates between 100,000 and 300,000 on the Scoville?
I'll bet that there's a market.

I'm a repeat customer. This stuff is a game changer. A little Hotter Stuff goes a long way. And the Three Kings is now standard issue in my kitchen. I honestly brought my grinder to a family dinner "just in case". It was a hit with the family!

Perfect for those wanting more heat and not add extra salt in the process. My goto for a nice salty heat.

Refill doesn’t refill

The product is great……but having to buy 4 refill packs to refill my grinder is crazy it feels punitive I have no doubt that this product takes time to create but for the love of goo do a bigger refill bag, we support your company and don’t want to spend 90 bucks to refill one grinder…….again if your reading this and wondering about the product I love it just this is my 3 reup and not pleased with the 6 bags bought

Hi Keylon, You are awesome. Your review hits me like a flashback. I feel your pain and would like to get this taken care of.  I'm glad you love it, can't live without it,  and I don't want any part of the deal to feel punitive (unless you use too much, that's on you). 

Let's get to the bottom of this... Hotter Stuff refills have 25g of Hot Salt in them (often more). That is enough to refill our push grinders twice. You have either 4 or 6 packets not sure what's going on but that's a lot of Hotter Stuff, like thousands of servings! Thousands! 

Maybe you're using the refills to refill a large grinder? (Our Brick grinder or some other grinder?). The Brick holds way more than 6 let alone 4 packets. With that in mind we have it set up so when you buy more than one refill, the price is automatically discounted. Discount increases with quantity. If you bought 4 the price should have discounted SIGNIFICANTLY. I'll find your order and if it doesn't reflect the bulk discount, I'll refund it for you. I'm glad you like it and that you're coming back for more. Thank you! - Alex

Very good

Big fan of their products only problem I have when I order their stuff is I go through it way too fast cause I’m putting it on everything and it can be a little pricey, if you go through it too fast I really like their hotter blends even more, but this is a good base heat for most any food

Hey Kenneth!
Thank you for the support and the review. I'm about to launch a number of subscription options with special perks and a number of different price points that will lower the cost vs one time purchases and introduce refill sticks made for a single push grinder filling. There will be all kinds of options for frequency, variety, early access to buddy batches and other fun things too. People have been asking for it an I finally have the equipment to support it. I just need to figure out how to operate it and we'll be off to the races.
Thank you! - Alex

Hotter Stuff is Awesome!

I love how you can add a lot of heat without making food too salty. It's great to be able to get heat without adding a vinegar taste. Love Firecracker Farms! You guys are incredible!

I LOVE YOU. Someone just beat me up in the reviews and I came here to see how else I've been screwing up and found this... Thank you, I needed this and it made my day. Really, thank you! - Alex

Hotter Stuff

Love the heat of this salt. I'll continue to purchase the for as long as I can. Only wish I could get a larger amount at once instead of the little packets. But I just buy 10 at a time.

Graduated to the Hotter Stuff

Im not a glutton for punishment, but after trying the Three Kings, I graduated to Hotter Stuff. It definitely lives up to its namesake, but in a way that keeps you coming back for more. Heat with flavor is what I look for. Hotter Stuff delivers. Just make sure to shake up your refill pouch before topping off the grinder. The dust at the bottom of the pouch hits hard. Looking forward to the Normalized Violence.

Good flavor

I've really enjoyed all the products I've tried so far, I just wish they are hotter, I just bought the Hotter salt and it was hardly even hot.

Hi Shawn, Thanks for reachinbg out! I hate to see a 2 star review but glat you think the flavor is good! You must be part of the 1% that really like it hot. If I made our stuff much hotter (I have) people complain it's too hot and I'd be out of business. Hit me up via email (just reply to your order email) and I'll get you something that most would find punativly hot. - Alex

Can’t leave home without it !

Since being introduced with the original shaker (pros it holds more cons it’s too big to fur in my purse ) sooooo I bought four of the thumb shakers and an order of refills so we have some to share and never run out. If you can be addicted to this then call us addicts. And our addiction is the hotter stuff salt . Looks like we’re gonna have to order some sets for Christmas so we don’t run out so fast❤️🌶️. (And maybe try some of the other option!)

Not worth it. Almost 30.00 for a very very small amount of product. Tastes great, not too hot.

Great stuff, just disappointed 100grams. The bottle looks little for the price. $0.97 per gram.
The product doesn’t give me heartburn, but the price did.
