FAQs
How do I sterilize the jam jars?
Wash the jars and lids with hot, soapy water. Place the jars (without lids) in a boiling water canner or on a rack in a large pot and boil for 10 minutes. Alternatively, use a dishwasher with a sanitize setting.
What kind of lids should I use?
Use new lids designed for preserving. They often have a sealing compound that helps create an airtight seal.
How long can I store preserved items in these jars?
Properly sealed and processed items can be stored for up to a year in a cool, dark place.
Can I use these jars for pressure canning?
No, these jars are not designed for pressure canning. Only use jars specifically designed for pressure canning for that purpose.
Can I reuse the lids?
It is recommended to use new lids for each preserving session to ensure a good seal. The sealing compound in the lids degrades with each use.
How do I know if the jar has sealed properly?
Once the jar has cooled, the lid should be indented. You can also tap the center of the lid; it should not flex. If the lid flexes or pops, it has not sealed and the contents should be refrigerated and used immediately.
What if my jar doesn't seal?
If a jar doesn't seal, you can refrigerate it and use the contents immediately. Alternatively, you can reprocess the jar with a new lid, following the original recipe instructions.
Are these jars dishwasher safe?
Yes, the jars are dishwasher safe. However, always check the lid manufacturer's instructions, as some lids may not be dishwasher safe.
Troubleshooting
Jars are not sealing properly.
Ensure you are using new, undamaged lids. Make sure the rims of the jars are clean before applying the lids. Check the processing time and temperature according to your recipe.
Contents are spoiling.
The jars may not have been properly sterilized, or the lids may not have sealed completely. Ensure proper sterilization and sealing techniques before filling the jars.
Lids are rusting.
Lids may rust if stored in a humid environment. Ensure the lids are completely dry before storage and consider storing them separately from the jars.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Sterilization: Before using the jars for preserving, sterilize them to eliminate any bacteria that could cause spoilage. Wash the jars and lids thoroughly with hot, soapy water. Place the jars (without lids) in a boiling water canner or on a rack in a large pot and boil for 10 minutes. Alternatively, use a dishwasher with a sanitize setting.
Filling: Fill the sterilized jars with your prepared food, leaving the recommended headspace (usually about ¼ inch) at the top. Wipe the jar rims clean.
Sealing: Place the sterilized lids on the jars and screw on the bands finger-tight. (Do not overtighten.)
Processing: Process the jars according to your recipe's instructions (e.g., in a boiling water bath). This is crucial for proper sealing and preservation.
Cooling: After processing, let the jars cool undisturbed on a towel-lined surface. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
Storage: Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place for up to a year. Check the seals before use.
Care Instructions
Cleaning: Wash jars and lids with warm, soapy water after use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the glass.
Storage: Store jars and lids separately to prevent odors. Keep them in a dry place.
Inspection: Before reuse, inspect the jars and lids for any chips, cracks, or damage. Discard any damaged items.
