Question: Right now I have a pot that will only hold 7 pints at a time to can. Since this is twice the amount that I can hold at a time, can you keep the second set of jars warm until the first batch is done or how does that work? Or do they have to be immediately canned after filling the jars? I hate to cut the recipe in half unless I just have to. Thanks in advance 😊
@@deucecoupe700 I have always filled them and kept them on the stove where it is warm. I think the guidelines would say to only can up what you can process and then reheat what’s left in the pot and jar up right before processing. Cherry pie filling is thick so it’s a good idea to keep it hot so that it the center of the jars come to the appropriate temp.
Like the tip about the vinegar cleaning the rim of the jar .
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
