Thank you for this really cool video. But I also hope you don't find mild humor offensive, so here we go - when's the next hospital shift? (In all fairness, the top/t-shirt's color is actually nice.😊 🌻🌱)
Oh my gosh did you know you can cook meat, like a whole chicken, in this thing and catch the broth like you catch the juice from the fruit?! You can, it's in the booklet.
Ms. Sarah, in the event that you are processing a lot of fruit, one way to ensure that the water doesn't get too low is to place a couple of marbles in the water. When the water starts to get low in the pan, the marbles will 'dance'.
Oh my goodness! l hope the person who gifted the juice extractor to LTH, knows that in a way they gave to all we ''traditionalists'' too. Skills passed on PLUS time saved for other projects. love from Ark.
This is exactly what I was looking at for elderberry juice for the winter. I only have 2 elderberry flowers.There are 4 total plants in my garden. Thinking I will have lots of berries in future years
I got this when I first watched this video - reporting back this is FANTASTIC and I'm flying through my jelly making. Every single time I use it, I'm happier than before. I can't wait to try apples and other larger fruit. THANK YOU to the subscriber that sent it to you and to you for this awesome video!!!!!!
Isn't it the best! Here's my favorite thing to do with it. Put all your peels and cores in from apples and you get wonderful apple juice! We then can it for special occasions.
I can't wait for loads of apples. I keep dreaming of all the things I will make with the fruit from our trees. They're so little...I might be a grandma by then. LOL!
I was going to say that too, we thru the pits and skins from the peaches we canned last week in our juice and got quarts of juice my wife turned into syurp. And canned some juice as well.
In Norway this is a common and old kitchen tool («saftkoker» in my language) My grandmother and my mother used it a lot, and so do I. I make juice of black and red currants, cherries, raspberries, apples and pear wich is the fruit I grow in my garden.
tiff2106 . Norway, Denmark and Germany, and I’m sure it is used all over the world. For my apples I rather use a press to make applejuice than the cooker.
That is the unit I told you about a year ago or so. Put vinegar in the water pan it will save you a lot of cleaning. I also set a stool near the stove with a pan to collect the juice.
I LOVE V8 juice but it's so full of unwanted things! Thanks for this tip! Although we don't have any garden this year because of the flooding (everything drowned) we will have a garden next year for sure---away from any river!! LOL! This will save so much time and waste!
I never thought that the steam juicer is not common in the USA. I live in Austria and almost every household has one of these, often quite old but still working. I use it mostly for elderberrys, currants, plums apples and grapes, but I put in whatever fruits I forage. Its also great as a steam cooker to make germknödel. 😄
I am in Australia and my steam juicer arrived yesterday. I am going to peel and core 2kg of apples for apple pie filling and use the skins and the cores to make juice. My chickens will get what’s left after juicing. I love that nothing goes to waste. Thank you for your videos, I have learnt so much from you and Kevin.
You can also write over top of permanent marker with a dry erase marker and then wipe it off. Sometimes if it is old writing it leaves a little residual smudges, but a wet towel takes it right off.
Another great thing about juice extractors is that the juice is already pasteurized when it comes out. If you put it in sanitized bottles you don’t even have to can it to make it shelf stable!
Love you and your videos SO much - just sitting outside on my back deck in my swing drinking coffee, enjoying beautiful Missouri and enjoying learning from you once again. Appreciate all you guys do your my Favorite!!! ❤️
Loved this video! My mother gave me her steam juicer a few yrs before she passed away. I can't wait to try it! Your helped me understand my steam juicer! Thank you Sarah!!!
Mary - me too. At 80+ remembering more than doing. But don't you just love all the creative responses to this video? Might be fun to see what Sarah can do with some of these ideas. The 'fruit leather' and 'fruit butter' sounds so delicious!
I have been using a brand of pectin called Pomona pectin that uses way less sugar than called for in the Sure Jell. The jams and jellies taste more like the fruit . Your peach jelly is beautiful.
Thank you for this tip! Pomona Pectin. I'll have to look for that as I really don't like a lot of sugar in my jams and jellies. They just taste like sugar with a little flavoring in them....yuck!
I have been using a steamed juice extractor for about 5 years. I love it. My tips to you are - let fruit steam till half the volume and let cool overnight. You get much more juice.
My mother has used one of these for 45 years. They're great ! She made juice, then used the pulp for jam or fruit leather. They also work great for making vegetable, chicken or beef stock (broth)
My mom used one of these in the 60’s in Canada, and we had some of the best juices, syrups and jellies all winter. Raspberries, crab apples, Saskatoon, and we always had tons of tomatoes so she did those with celery and onion for the best tomato juice ever.
I've been using a steam Juicer for years. If your Juicing apples peel and core them first. Then run just the pulp afterwards through a chinois or a food Mill and you have a great homemade applesauce. When doing berries you can puree the berry pulp add honey to taste then dehydrate on fruit leather sheets in your dehydrator for homemade fruit leather.
Hi Sarah, WOW, that was such a sweet thing for a viewer to send that to you and it will be so fun to watch you use it and see all the ideas you come up with! Jenenda 🍅🍅🍅
Been using a steamer juicer since the ‘80’s. One of my all time favorite cooking products. It’s also the best for cooking tough pieces of meat, plus it makes my broth at the same time.
I save apple peel, orange peel and lemon peel in the freezer *minus the citrus zest which is kept for other uses* until I have enough to make jelly-jam. I add a piece of root ginger to it and remove it when ready to bottle and only use half the sugar they normally say! It's a firm favourite with everyone who tastes it! There are often queries as to whether I've made any "compost jelly" lately!
Sounds good. I don't buy any sugar at all, but I'm sure the world manages to feed me too much of it. So I was cringing just as much as drooling at this video. Anything that reduces sugar has to be a good thing!
@@carolyn4056 - when you think about it, what I use for the full flavour is mostly waste that would go into the compost bin! I forgot to say, that to make it, I cut the citrus up, barely cover it all with water, boil it for 10 minutes, then strain the juice out through some muslin. Then I add 300g sugar for every 500ml and cook until it reaches setting point - about 30 minutes on a low heat.
This is exactly what I recommended to you last year, when you did the Cranberry Juice video. This is the same steam extractor that Wanda uses, and she & Danny ( as you know) live exactly like you & Kevin do, growing their own groceries. I bet this will significantly enhance & increase your juice extracting this year and for years to come.
This is very common in Sweden, it’s called ”Saft-Maja” = Juice-Maja (Maja is the Scandinavian spelling of the name Maya). I’ve read that this is a finnish invention from the 40’s or 50’s. Love from Sweden!
I am new to canning and LOVE all your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, hints, and equipment explanations. My canning success is because you are a terrific teacher. ☺🍓🍎
Yes ! The marble in the bottom is a lifesaver ! After you use it for awhile, it will break, so keep a few on hand ! Also, with the pulp of the fruit, you can make peach butter, etc. Enjoy your new toy ! I have loved mine for 10+ years now ! Makes the BEST Concord Grape Juice EVER !!!! Just wash grape clusters and toss (stems and all) in the top and let it do its thing !
Steve Slade I don't know where your question went, so I hope you get this !When you make apple butter or any butter made from the pulp from the steam juicer, It still has the peach flavor and concentrated. The pulp makes the best butter ever ! When you make any butters, you are cooking out the liquid, so this helps the process go quicker ! Hope this helps...
How about a few polished pebbles? I'm a rock hound & throw my scraps in the tumbler for the grandkids, but I think I'll try some in the extractor. Who cares if stones break?
Hi Sarah, when I can peaches I peel them and save the peelings in freezer bags. Then later when I have time I just put about 3 large ( gal sized) bags of those frozen peach peelings into the juice maker and it makes wonderful juice . As we know many of the nutrients are in the peelings. I can the juice in quart jars and we drink it later in the year. Sometimes I sweeten the juice while it’s steaming and sometimes I don’t. This is great juice to add to my homemade kombucha. The left over fruit I give to my chickens they love it.
Sarah I have used one of these for years. We stem sour cherries and can the juice. when your done with the juice use the pulp left over to make cherry jam. You could freeze the "meat" of the cherries and make any combo of jam. Your will love this!
I have a steam juicer like you do... i have used it to make all sorts of juices, mostly Concord grape juice. A tip i have learned.. is if your fruit in the top part has much flavor you need to steam longer till the top fruit has not much flavor so in this 1st time using it i would steam the peaches longer, say 30 mins or more till peaches have not much remaining flavor they should be really bland like you would not want to use them for something else. I have done apple juice using apples with skins on. Ive made rhubarb juice that was so good. I love love Concord grape juice... i make about 50+ quarts every other year it is amazing juice... SO fun you have a new toy you will enjoy using it for so many things.
I have done the same things for years and I totally agree with you about steaming it longer. You just don’t want to steam it so long that the steam dilutes the juice too much.
Cynthia fisher yes that’s it I agree. It take some experimenting to know where that point is where starts to dilute the juice. I usually take quick taste of the steamed fruit if it’s getting bland tasting I stop.
love being able to make crabapple jelly and rhubarb juice. This tool is a real time saver. I don't put anything in my water and don't have any problem with cleaning this tool.
Finally bought the juicer many months ago and just used for the first time with last years frozen strawberries and blackberries and it worked fantastic love love love it!!! Thanks for all the detailed product instructions you do!!
Awesome for grapes! Stir once in a while when you check the water level. Keep cooking until the juice comes out looking like unconcentrated juice or more like water. Leftover fruit if flavorful can be used as fruit leather, applesauce (I wish I had Johnny Apple Sauce Maker Model 250 Food Strainer- good for removing skins and seeds in fruit and tomatoes) smoothies and always the garden. Nothing is wasted! God is good, all the time 🙏🏼
You talked me into it! Just ordered one from Amazon, and it will be here Thursday. Black raspberries are ripening, so I shall give it a work out. I decided at my age (lets just say way older than you) and with all my arthritis, this looks easier than they way I have been doing it for years. Got cherries to do, too. Thanks for sharing this. Wish I had a friend, who wanted to donate one to me! LOL
We call it Saftkoker in norway. I use my grandma's, so its 80 years old :-) Its perfekt !! Rubarhs + all kind of fruit gives med perfect jelly or jam :) The pits and the skin from the fruis goes to my chicken or to the pigs
I'm almost 60 years old and come from a family of canners and I have never heard of this method! Thank you so much for sharing, you always have so many more tips than the focal point of the video
My mom would use a rack in her pot to keep the jars from touching. Also there was something about covering the jars with a towel overnight 🤷♀️ I personally have never canned anything but watching you makes me want to try! I have no tips or tricks but I look forward to seeing everybody else's!😊
I use a similar, but slightly smaller, unit for steaming concord grapes...works great for making juice...add a little 7-up or ginger ale to about 1 inch of concentrated grape juice and it is a delicious drink....You will love your new steamer. Lucky you!! After it appears the grapes have gotten all the juice out of them...if you take a large ladel or spoon and smash the balance of the pulp and steam again, you will be surprised how much more juice concentrate you can retrieve from what looked like just pulp for the chickens....they love the pulp
What a neat tool to have! Bless folks who share with you! I had never heard of a steam juice extractor, but that works great and you get two benefits from it! Congrats and as always, thanks for sharing with us!
Yes the juice extractor is great for grap, blackberry or any fruit that has seeds and makes delicious juices to use so many ways. I think I've had mine about six years now.
This is how I learned to can with my mom. Our family rarely ate jam we always had jelly made in one of these. It is also amazing to make apple juice (and jelly subsequently). The leftover pulp makes the best apple sauce! My favourite fruits to use are apples, cherries, raspberries and blackberries.
Never heard of this. But actually I love the skimmed bubbles. I put tem in the fridge to test the firmness if my jelly and have it on fresh bread as a treat for making jelly. 😊
Yeah for juice extractors! I borrowed one from a friend last summer and steam juiced Concord grapes and also tomatoes. It has been so nice to have grape juice concentrate and tomato juice on hand. There is so much you can do with the left over pulp too. Enjoy your new toy!!
I just learned about these in another video, and I'm excited to get one. Of course I will have to find a place to store it before I purchase it, I'm getting quite a lot of supplies and I need more storage. Jar storage, equipment storage etc. Thanks for this demo!
To see the Juice Extractor as well as other products we use on the homestead, please visit our Amazon shop at amzn.to/2LNm1BF
Thank you for this really cool video. But I also hope you don't find mild humor offensive, so here we go - when's the next hospital shift?
(In all fairness, the top/t-shirt's color is actually nice.😊 🌻🌱)
LOL! I didn't even match that color to hospital scrubs. It does look amazing on Sarah, tho!
FYI: Deep South Homestead just posted a video w/her steaming a chicken in the extractor. What's neat about it is it extracts the broth! 2 steps in 1!
WOW! Win Win right there! That's a great and amazing tip!
Oh my gosh did you know you can cook meat, like a whole chicken, in this thing and catch the broth like you catch the juice from the fruit?! You can, it's in the booklet.

AMEN! I had never heard of a juice extractor let alone seen one working! This is definitely a game changer.
Absolutely true fellow viewer! Traditionalist, Hahaha. I'm looking too
Steam juice extractors are a game changer! The viewer sent you an incredible gift! The time it saves and ease of the process is amazing!
Steam juicer is DREAMY for juicing seeded grapes and sandy, gritty asian pears!

I like to use them to make apple cider vinegar!
I was going to say that too, we thru the pits and skins from the peaches we canned last week in our juice and got quarts of juice my wife turned into syurp. And canned some juice as well.
I was thinking you would not need to peel the fruit...but I would cut the fruit up a bit depending on the size of the fruit.
OR, I put peeled and cored apples in mine and make apple juice and applesauce at the same time...
In Norway this is a common and old kitchen tool («saftkoker» in my language) My grandmother and my mother used it a lot, and so do I.
I make juice of black and red currants, cherries, raspberries, apples and pear wich is the fruit I grow in my garden.
We had one as well.. (denmark)
👍
Same in Germany. We even use the same fruits. 😊
Same in Germany. We even use the same fruits. 😊 red currants juice super fast and black currants (not common in the us) make a delicious jelly!
tiff2106 . Norway, Denmark and Germany, and I’m sure it is used all over the world. For my apples I rather use a press to make applejuice than the cooker.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful tutorial on how to make homemade juice use a steam juicer.
That is the unit I told you about a year ago or so. Put vinegar in the water pan it will save you a lot of cleaning. I also set a stool near the stove with a pan to collect the juice.
I LOVE my steam juicer ... actually made my version of V8 juice and the pulp was then made into tomato paste ... wonderful
I LOVE V8 juice but it's so full of unwanted things! Thanks for this tip! Although we don't have any garden this year because of the flooding (everything drowned) we will have a garden next year for sure---away from any river!! LOL! This will save so much time and waste!
I know ... this way you control everything!
I actually got out a notebook and started writing everything down! LOL. I don't want to forget any one of these ideas!
Great idea to freeze the leftover fruit in ice cube trays! Thank you!
Sarah, you are such a great teacher Thanks for sharing!
oh my those look wonderful now of you sell peach jam place some of those peach inside the middle with a sprinkle of cinnamon yummy.
I never thought that the steam juicer is not common in the USA. I live in Austria and almost every household has one of these, often quite old but still working. I use it mostly for elderberrys, currants, plums apples and grapes, but I put in whatever fruits I forage. Its also great as a steam cooker to make germknödel. 😄

My mom used to make peach orange marmalade jam and it was my favorite. All she did was add orange zest to peach jam. It is heavenly!
I have a German friend, she introduced me to steam juicing. Love my steam juicer. What a wonderful gift you received from a generous person!
I have never used one before. Thanks for sharing.
A magic eraser sponge is great for taking the writing off of old lids.
A spritz of alcohol (from the pharmacy) will dissolve most markers like Sharpies.
Metholated spirits, orange oil or eucalyptus oil also takes the writing off.
Another method is to dip a wet finger in baking soda and use it to scrub off the ink.
Susan F Great tip.thank you
You can also write over top of permanent marker with a dry erase marker and then wipe it off. Sometimes if it is old writing it leaves a little residual smudges, but a wet towel takes it right off.
Another great thing about juice extractors is that the juice is already pasteurized when it comes out. If you put it in sanitized bottles you don’t even have to can it to make it shelf stable!
I love my juice steamer. Eliminates the mess, so I'm more likely to make jelly. Chickens also love the left over pieces.
Love you and your videos SO much - just sitting outside on my back deck in my swing drinking coffee, enjoying beautiful Missouri and enjoying learning from you once again. Appreciate all you guys do your my Favorite!!! ❤️
That is an amazing set to use. Thank you viewer for giving it to Sarah and her family for demonstrating it.
When you tasted the peach juice, my mouth watered. Going to try this. Thanks. Good video.
I'm enjoyed, Thanks for all, have a great week..
Loved this video! My mother gave me her steam juicer a few yrs before she passed away. I can't wait to try it! Your helped me understand my steam juicer! Thank you Sarah!!!
Your videos are so interesting. I’m past this point in my life but still enjoy watching because it brings back precious memories.
Mary - me too. At 80+ remembering more than doing. But don't you just love all the creative responses to this video? Might be fun to see what Sarah can do with some of these ideas. The 'fruit leather' and 'fruit butter' sounds so delicious!
I have been using a brand of pectin called Pomona pectin that uses way less sugar than called for in the Sure Jell. The jams and jellies taste more like the fruit .
Your peach jelly is beautiful.
Yes, it is kind of a chemistry experiment
I just made mango jam, Pomonas pectin and no sugar.
Thank you for this tip! Pomona Pectin. I'll have to look for that as I really don't like a lot of sugar in my jams and jellies. They just taste like sugar with a little flavoring in them....yuck!
Where do you get this pectin? Love to try it.
@@kimberlywalders6063 I buy it at Wagmans grocery store in the Buffalo area. You can check their website for a location near you. Also online.
I have been using a steamed juice extractor for about 5 years. I love it. My tips to you are - let fruit steam till half the volume and let cool overnight. You get much more juice.
Thank you for showing how to use the steam juicer. I never thought about using frozen fruit to make juice for jelly. I have to try that. 👍👍👍😀💕🌸🌱
Great job Sarah!
So glad you do get something from Amazon. Great video.
Bought one!! Grape juice was awesome and easy!! Grape jelly here we come!!
wow what a great tool!!!! thanks for sharing!
Been using one for about 9 years and it is a great add during canning season...
That juice extractor is a Big Blessing for you and family. I really do enjoy your videos.
Always want to see every post enjoy your videos so much. Learn so much.
This looks so good!! I’d just like to say that your husband and children should be so thankful for you!!!!
There is you tube where the lady steamed two whole chickens with vegetables. She got cooked chickens & mason jar of broth. Works! I did it myself.
My mother has used one of these for 45 years. They're great ! She made juice, then used the pulp for jam or fruit leather. They also work great for making vegetable, chicken or beef stock (broth)
Would love to try your jelly. Looks delicious 😁
Love my steamer juicer. We make grape juice.
Learned quite a bit. I like that you don't waste and you are a neat and clean cook.

I am new to canning and LOVE all your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, hints, and equipment explanations. My canning success is because you are a terrific teacher. ☺🍓🍎
Try Jaime from Guildbrook Farm. She’s also a great canning instructor.
Throw a couple marbles in the bottom so you will know if it runs dry if you're doing a big batch. The marbles will start rattling
Hi Sarah and Kevin love you and your daughters. But I also love your faith in god.
I got my juicer/steamer a few years ago. Game changer!!!! Cranberry jelly is so much easier! No repulsing, seed removal, etcetera.
*For the fruit I puree them, pour it into ice cube trays to freeze, then put them in a freezer Ziploc baggie. Works perfect. Love your videos!!*
Yes ! The marble in the bottom is a lifesaver ! After you use it for awhile, it will break, so keep a few on hand !

Thank you 💖
just another really great video. and thanks to the person who sent you the new toy for your kitchen. take care and God bless.
I love my steam juicer! I have this one and it is great!,
Thank you so much. I just ordered one of these. Sounds like a dream come true .
Hi Sarah, when I can peaches I peel them and save the peelings in freezer bags. Then later when I have time I just put about 3 large ( gal sized) bags of those frozen peach peelings into the juice maker and it makes wonderful juice . As we know many of the nutrients are in the peelings. I can the juice in quart jars and we drink it later in the year. Sometimes I sweeten the juice while it’s steaming and sometimes I don’t.

Sarah I have used one of these for years. We stem sour cherries and can the juice. when your done with the juice use the pulp left over to make cherry jam. You could freeze the "meat" of the cherries and make any combo of jam. Your will love this!
What a great gift from a viewer...hope you have fun extracting!😊

Wish I had a friend, who wanted to donate one to me! LOL
Great idea using the ice cube trays for no waste. I'd like to see you use this later in the year with cranberries.🍑💛
Awesome thank you for sharing!
Oh wow Sarah, that peach Jam/Jelly has such a beautiful color. What a blessing for that Juice extractor God is good.
That was a juicy video. The jam is flowing. God Bless.
We call it Saftkoker in norway. I use my grandma's, so its 80 years old :-) Its perfekt !! Rubarhs + all kind of fruit gives med perfect jelly or jam :)
The pits and the skin from the fruis goes to my chicken or to the pigs
Wonderful kitchen tool!!
I'm almost 60 years old and come from a family of canners and I have never heard of this method! Thank you so much for sharing, you always have so many more tips than the focal point of the video
My mom would use a rack in her pot to keep the jars from touching. Also there was something about covering the jars with a towel overnight 🤷♀️ I personally have never canned anything but watching you makes me want to try! I have no tips or tricks but I look forward to seeing everybody else's!😊
I use a similar, but slightly smaller, unit for steaming concord grapes...works great for making juice...add a little 7-up or ginger ale to about 1 inch of concentrated grape juice and it is a delicious drink....You will love your new steamer. Lucky you!! After it appears the grapes have gotten all the juice out of them...if you take a large ladel or spoon and smash the balance of the pulp and steam again, you will be surprised how much more juice concentrate you can retrieve from what looked like just pulp for the chickens....they love the pulp
What a neat tool to have! Bless folks who share with you! I had never heard of a steam juice extractor, but that works great and you get two benefits from it! Congrats and as always, thanks for sharing with us!
Love my steam juicer! A total game changer! I will can or freeze the juice and make into jelly at a later date sometimes.
Additionally if I can or freeze the juice I can make some fun combination. My favorite from last year was plum raspberry!
Love your canning tutorials!! Thanks for sharing
Yes the juice extractor is great for grap, blackberry or any fruit that has seeds and makes delicious juices to use so many ways. I think I've had mine about six years now.
Love to watch your videos, your level of enthusiasm and joy is contagious. Thank you
This is how I learned to can with my mom. Our family rarely ate jam we always had jelly made in one of these. It is also amazing to make apple juice (and jelly subsequently). The leftover pulp makes the best apple sauce!
My favourite fruits to use are apples, cherries, raspberries and blackberries.
I got one I am so excited to use mine thank you for the showing :)
If you add 1Tsp of Butter to your saucepan it will disperse the bubbles on top of your jam so that you don't have to skim the foam off.
WOW! Really? I have to remember this tip because I don't like skimming the foam! Thank you so much!
Never heard of this. But actually I love the skimmed bubbles. I put tem in the fridge to test the firmness if my jelly and have it on fresh bread as a treat for making jelly. 😊
Ooooo, that's a great idea too! YUM! Jelly bubbles....LOL!
Essem Sween Same here. My Mother, Grandmother and Great Grandmother all added a pat of butter to reduce the foam.
Paula Jo Davis it‘s just quality control! 😊
Yeah for juice extractors! I borrowed one from a friend last summer and steam juiced Concord grapes and also tomatoes. It has been so nice to have grape juice concentrate and tomato juice on hand. There is so much you can do with the left over pulp too. Enjoy your new toy!!
Sweet!
I just learned about these in another video, and I'm excited to get one. Of course I will have to find a place to store it before I purchase it, I'm getting quite a lot of supplies and I need more storage. Jar storage, equipment storage etc. Thanks for this demo!
