    The Scoville Scale is a method for quantifying the spiciness of chili peppers based on the concentration of capsaicin, the active component in chili peppers that causes the sensation of heat or spiciness. It is measured on a scale from 0 to 16,000,000, with higher numbers indicating higher concentrations of capsaicin and thus a higher level of spiciness.
