Preserving
NOTICE
To be understood under the term preserving is the conservation of food-stuffs by, amongst others, the effects of heat. Dependent upon the type and mass of the items to be preserved, a differentiation is made between the processes of sterilisation and pasteurisation. In sterilisation, the items to be preserved are heated to a temperature of at least 100°C.
With pasteurisation, the heating temperature lies at around 80^ C.
For domestic purposes, pasteurisation is sufficient.
For this, one needs the appropriate preserving jars, with screw-tops or lids with rubber rings.
1) Place the preserving grill ④ in the preserving boiler.
2) Stand the well sealed preserving jars on the preserving grill 4.
NOTICE
▶ A maximum of 14 1-liter preserving jars (diameter 11.5 cm / Height 13.2 cm) in two layers, one above the other, can be pasteurised/sterilised.
3) Fill the preserving boiler with sufficient water to ensure that the upper jars are submersed to at least 3/4 of their height. Ensure that the preserving jars in the lower layer are firmly sealed, so that water cannot infiltrate them.
4) Close the preserving boiler with the lid ①.

WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
