Cooling Jars

 Ingredients List

  • When you remove hot jars from a canner, do not retighten their jar lids.
  • Retightening of hot lids may cut through the gasket and cause seal
  • failures. Cool the jars at room temperature for 12 to 24 hours. Jars may be
  • cooled on racks or towels to minimize heat damage to counters (Plate 1).
  • The food level and liquid volume of raw-packed jars will be noticeably
  • lower after cooling. Air is exhausted during processing and food shrinks.
  • If a jar loses excessive liquid during processing, do not open it to add
  • more liquid. Check for sealed lids. For more information see "Testing Jars
  • Seals".
