Important note: The Kensington Preserving Unit is not
considered to be suitable for preserving low acid foods such as
most vegetables, soups, meat and fish.
Note:
The times shown in the tables relate to the
processing time. This starts once the preserver is
heated to the defined temperature. It can take
up to 90 minutes to preheat, especially if the unit
is full!
6.
After the defined time, turn the temperature
dial to OFF. Take the plug out of the mains
socket.
7.
Place a heat resistant container under the tap
and lift the tap handle to empty the water from
the unit.
8.
Once the water has emptied out of the unit,
remove the bottles from the preserver and
place them on a towel to allow them to cool.
Heating or Reheating Liquids
WARNING!
When using liquids in the preserver, ensure that
the maximum level is 4cm from the top of the
unit. If not the liquid could overflow
.
1.
Pour the liquid (for example mulled wine or hot
chocolate) into the Kensington Food Preserver.
2.
Put the lid on the preserver.
WARNING!
When it is hot, only move the unit using the
insulated handles. Burn risk!
3.
Set the temperature dial to the desired
temperature. The indicator light will come on.
4.
Regularly stir the liquids to ensure a uniform
distribution of heat.
5.
Once the preserver has heated to the selected
temperature the indicator light will go off. It
will intermittently relight as the temperature
drops below the selected temperature and the
preserver reheats.
6.
You can pour out liquids that do not have any
solid ingredients by using the tap at the
bottom. To do this, hold a pot or some other
sort of container under the tap and push down
on the tap handle. Once you have poured out
the amount you want into the container, let go
of the tap handle.
WARNING!
Do not use the tap to pour out liquids containing
solid ingredients, such as soups or other food
preparations. These solids can block the tap.
Note:
You can also use the appliance to reheat
casseroles and stews. Stir the casserole regularly
to make sure it doesn’t burn and stick to the
bottom of the unit. It is advisable not to reheat at
high temperature settings.
