Jam Cycle Instructions
For Best Results
Do not reduce sugar or use sugar substitutes. The exact
amounts of sugar, fruit, and other ingredients are necessary for
a good set.
Use only ripe fruit (not overripe or underripe) for best flavor.
Do not puree fruit. Crush with a potato masher or food proces-
sor. Jam should have bits of fruit in it. Remove stems, seeds, or
pits from fruit before crushing.
Recipes should not exceed 3- ½ cups.
Be sure to measure fruit after it has been crushed, not before.
You may use strawberries, blackberries, raspberries or other
thin skinned berries. Fruit such as peaches, pears and apricots
may be used but should be peeled and pits removed.
Frozen berries or fruit (no sugar added) may be substituted for
fresh. Thaw and drain before measuring. For thinner jam, use
juice as part of the 3- ½ cups berry or fruit amount.
Lemon juice adds necessary acid to the berries or fruit.
You may decrease the amount of sugar, but it will produce a
thinner result. More sugar will make it thicker. For best results,
sugar substitutes are not recommended.
Jam will keep for two weeks in the refrigerator or for up to sev-
eral months in the freezer.
