@useful.knowledge 2 жыл бұрын

Hi. Thanks for the kind comment! Yes, for apple butter, I use the open kettle method. My rule is if can be water bathed, I will use the open kettle method. The open kettle method was the recommended method for acidic items (ph below 4.5) before water bath became recommended. My main advice for open kettle is to work quickly and get the hot product (in this case apple butter) into the hot jars quickly and then get the lids on. Apple butter sounds good with this fall weather!!

However I placed the lids and bands on as soon as I filled with applesauce to lessen the loss of heat from applesauce.

Great video, but I will say though that the crock pot method is much faster, easier and far less work. I have one of those counter top suction cup hand crank peelers and I have the crock pot full and ready to go in ten minutes or so. It's important to wait until the apples on the tree are good and mature as they are sweeter and have more flavor.

But you didn’t process your jars. You just turned them upside down. Processing them correctly, by the National Center For Home Food Preservation guidelines is the safest way to prevent botulism. I’m just not willing to take a chance and hope my home canned goods won’t kill someone.

@useful.knowledge 2 жыл бұрын

You really don’t know what you are talking about do you? Botulism is not active in acidic environments that are less than 4.5 on the ph scale. Applesauce is acidic. These were 3.8 in the video. Open kettle method was used for generations until water bath became recommended and still is used. Please provide proof of anyone getting killed from botulism in applesauce, jellies, jams, tomatoes, marmalade. I’ll wait.

I DON’T need proof! The National Center For Home Food Preservation provides tested and safe canning guidelines. Just because your grandma did it, does NOT make it safe.

@useful.knowledge 2 жыл бұрын

This is the open kettle canning method that was the recommended method before water bath became recommended at some point in the 1980’s. Check the old canning books. This method has worked for generations and still does. I was taught by my grandparents as a child and I still can anything acidic this way which is about 200 jars a year of jams, jellies, tomatoes, applesauce, etc. I specifically say in the video that anyone can use the water bath method if it makes them more comfortable. Water bath is not going to get above 212 deg. I don’t care how long you cook it.
