Fill the jars within 1/4” of the jar top to avoid too much air left in
the jars. Seal immediately with sterilized lids.
11.
Place the sealed jars in a hot water bath of 190 degrees F (87.7
degrees C) for 15 minutes. Note: Use heat resistant gloves or jar
lifter to remove the jars from the hot water.
12.
Place the hot jars on a towel in a draft free area and let cool. After
24 hours, check the seals and store in a cool, dry, dark room.
Instructions for Tomato Juice
After filling the jar with plain hot tomato juice, add 2 teaspoons of
lemon juice or vinegar per quart leaving a 1/4” space at the top. Seal
and put in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes for quarts and 10
minutes for pints. For thicker juice, stir occasionally as they steam, or
put juice and pulp through a blender.
Instructions for Other Vegetable Juices
Any juice containing vegetables (except plain tomatoes) needs to be
bottled and sealed then placed in a pressure cooker for 30 minutes for
quarts and 20 minutes for pints at 10 pounds of pressure.
Grape Juice
Many people buy a Victorio Steam Juicer for the sole purpose of
making grape juice. Simply rinse grapes well – it is usually not
necessary to stem them unless you have very sensitive taste buds. Pile
grapes into the food basket. Don’t be concerned if the lid does not fit
on when you begin, after the fruit has steamed a while it will start to
collapse. Steam grapes for 60 minutes then seal the lids.
