The Scotch Bonnet is much, much hotter than the Serrano. Serranos tend to be hotter than jalapenos, as a comparison point, and they cap off at about 23,000 Scoville Heat Units.

Although the hottest Serrano chile will feel like fire to the inexperienced, the mildest Scotch Bonnet will blow it away. Scotch Bonnets are comparable to Habanero chiles, at 150,000 to 325,000 Scoville Heat Units. They are among the hottest chile peppers commonly used although not the hottest by today's standards, since there are chile peppers at close to 1.5 million Scoville Units.
