Stir in cream....or add a whole, peeled potato, simmer for a few minutes, then throw away the potato.

Looking at that recipe I'd make more of the plain syrup using more vinegar and sugar then add to the hot stuff bit by bit til it tastes right.

the heat would depend on which chillis you used. add a little more sugar and keep testing. this should also thicken it up a bit.

It says on the recipe at the bottom to replace half the chilis with red peppers if you want it not so hot.

Or just use less of it when you pour it?

Call it something like 'inferno'.....
