SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Make sure the ingredients you want
to pasteurise are fresh: food which
is not perfectly fresh might already
be fermenting and it is impossible
to guarantee the success of the
preservation.
• Use a new seal for each
pasteurisation.
• Rinse the jars and the rubber seals
with lukewarm water before use.
• Pour your preparation in the jars,
without exceeding 80% of their
capacity, leaving at least 2 cm to the
edge.
• Make sure the jars are completely
hermetic
• The temperature and the time
necessary to sterilise/pasteurise
depends on the food, its acidity,
its quantity or the size of the jars.
Check your recipe.
