The active principle that causes the heat in chile peppers is a
crystalline alkaloid generically called /capsaicin/. It is produced by
glands at the junction of the placenta and the pod wall. The capsaicin
spreads unevenly throughout the inside of the pod and is concentrated
mostly in the placental tissue. jim

Definitely leave in the seeds. Most of the "heat" is in the seeds.

Since I have 20 Habenaro plants, 6 cayenne, and 1 Caribbean red I
have plenty to make a tincture. My question is do you leave the seeds
in when you grind in the blender???
