Reusing Grocery Jars to Can In ? What You Need to Know

[@b3autifullife]

Aussie here. I use nothing but recycled lug lid jars from the supermarket. My success rate is 99.9% you can also buy replacement lug lids online very cheaply. I reuse a lid over and over until it shows signs of wear such as the rubber seal is damaged or if there are dents appearing in the metal which would cause it to not seal. As for the lug lids that dont have a "button" and are flat, they still work perfectly. After canning, they will appear flat but in fact are pulled down and will be sunken. Placing a pencil or similar across the lid will show you that the lid is no longer flat and is indeed sealed tight. With lug lids you have to put them on the filled jars tightly, unlike the two piece lids wich are finger tight. Give them a go, you wont be disappointed and you'll save a massive amount of money. I get family and friends to save their empty jars for me. I even get them free on facebook groups and in marketplace.

I've used supermarket lug lids jars for years and years. So much so mu pickle jars are starting to rust on the inside lid. Oh dear! What shall I do?😮 😅. I make my pickle and chutney, cover the jar with Glad Wrap, put on the lid,and voila! After two years in the larder, so damn tasty . When the wrap breaks I renew it. Good old Kiwi ingenuity 😅😊😅.

People argue with me all the time but I don't give a darn because they are amazing especially the Cantina spaghetti jars.

[@lindapittsonberger1874]

I’ve done this in the past. My aunt for years, reused her canning lids by boiling them to rejuvenate the rubber ring and never lost food. I’ve done that, too.

[@gregorythomas333]

My mom has been doing this for years...she reused the huge gallon sized jars to store large amounts of more expensive homemade foods...it saved her hundreds of dollars!

[@maggiegoossens1894]

Belgian here, 70 years old. We here have been re-using store bought jars for as long as they have been around. Yes, there are lids that don't 'take'; we discard them and use another one. Keep the lids of broken jars. Collect all you can and re-use it! High pressure canning is an unknown thing here, we traditionally can by water bathing. Works just fine. Sometimes a jar will not take, that means the lid is not good and you do it again (only ONE more try!) or freeze the stuff if you can't eat it immediately. When the jars cool off, you hear the lids POP when the vaccuum takes on. Love the sound.

[@SurvivalHT]

Thank you for sharing!

[@lajuanascruggs3947]

I like water bath sealing. I discovered that by accident it works! After I turned the heat off, I went to sleep while they were in the HOT water bath. I woke up the next day.Everything was cool down and sealed tightly. I will not seal any other way except by water bath.😊

[@solanisomeni]

I've been using the store bought jars for my water bath caning for years now. I haven't used them that much in pressure caning, but that has to do with me not being certain that the glass itself will hold up to the high temperature in my pressure caner. All my jams, jellies and other food items that I can water bath can, I use the store bought jars and the lids that come with them. I've used them over and over again, until the lids don't look good. The jars that the mason rings/lids fit are no problem, I just switch to those rings and lids. I do have another tip that I know many frown upon, but it really works and also saves money. It has to do with re-using mason lids over and over again. I know that it says that it is a big no no, reusing the caning lids but, if you have tattler rubber sealing rings, you just place one of those rubber rings/gaskets between the mouth of the jar and lid, screw on the ring and away you go. I don't do this on lids that are dented or damaged in any way, just the lids that I've carefully removed when opening and they look like they're new. Tattler is real upset that many are doing this and have stopped folks from just buying the rubber rings. I however have a couple of hundreds of both regular and wide mouth Tattler lids and rings to spare so, I do both and the fail rate is no different than it is when caning with new lids. I also use the store bought jars with the push down thingy when vacuum sealing. I have bought the vacuum sealing large containers on Amazon and place the filled jar with whatever dehydrated in that canister, put the lid on and attach the vacuum sealing nozzle in the lid of the canister and suck the air out, Resulting in a vacuum sealed jar inside of the canister.

[@alysal2568]

I agree with reusing canning lids, do it all the time. What’s the big deal?! If it doesn’t seal from processing (which is rare) I put it in the fridge. If it fails in the pantry (again, rare) I throw it out. I agree with most canning “rules” for safety, but lids in good shape can be used a few times for sure.

[@christophertaylor2464]

We reuse lids. I think they say don't reuse the lids so they can sell you more lids.

[@MaruAdventurer]

You would be surprised how much of the commercial products are merely a hot pack in processing, drop into water bath, then cool. No pressure at all.

[@denisepeel1327]

Other jars you can use for dehydrated foods and use a food saver or a brake bleeder to take air out of the jar.

Wow thank you for this info! How did I not know this??? I feel kinda dumb LOL I had absolutely no idea this could be done, so your info is much appreciated!

[@agrising5575]

Thank you for sharing your brilliance with us! I actually began reusing my jars with the lug lids a couple of years ago to store water. I wash and warm the jars and fill them with boiling water (should we actually have a water crisis). They seal perfectly! The water can then be filtered if needed. Not much goes to waste around here! God bless you!

[@susanfromthemountains1754]

I appreciate your sharing this specific reusable jars video. I want to tell everybody that this- 2024 summer- I reused Ball canning lids that I had used in 2023 for canning. It's the first time I ever tried reusing Ball canning lids. I decided to try this out on my own I have never known anybody that did it. I checked each lid to make sure the rubber seal was good, and clean and that there was no dents or divots in the rim of each lid. You have to eyeball that very carefully since the rim is so thin. Once you inspect each of the used lids and choose which ones look perfect still then use them again. I had a 100% success. I had 12 of them and I reused. I'm not sure if I could reuse them again I did throw them out after the second use. But maybe they're good to go again. I'm just glad I got a second use out of them and glad that I was courageous to try it because it was 100% success. When I opened each jar they had suction and the food inside was preserved perfectly. I really appreciate this tip here that you gave us today thank you!

[@Social-52]

I also reuse my lids with good success. The TRICK is to learn how to pop the sealed lid without bending it. An upside down tablespoon works if you wedge it at the narrowest ring, closest to the lid. A slight but steady pressure between the jar & the lid will break the seal without bending the lid. It takes a few times to develop your memory of how to use this technique, but worth the patience. I can pop mine every time with one try...after trial and error. 😊..if you need visual demonstration just KZbin HOW TO POP MASON JAR LID WITH SPOON.

[@susanfromthemountains1754]

[@patricecarter5096]

I reuse those store bought jars too but so far I canned only fruits and I do water canning. I'm pretty successful with this method.

[@TrialAndError8713]

I typically use the jars from store-bought foods for vacuum sealing. However, I did have a Classico jar that was stamped "MASON", but it wouldn't stay vacuum sealed. The top was the size of the small mouth lids that Ball/Mason don't make anymore. Smaller than the REGULAR lids.

[@tomm2812]

Great idea. I Reuse store Jars especially for refrigerator pickles and such. Best

[@terri5757]

I’m so glad to learn this. I am fairly new to water bath canning. I almost stopped canning because I kept running across channels that scared me to death with all sorts of different warnings with “do’s and don’ts” or you ‘Will Die.’ Well, maybe I’m being a little dramatic but not much. But yet there are different people saying different things. I’d like to do pressure canning but I’m so afraid of the canner. So I am trying to learn everything I can so hopefully I’ll be ready for next year. I can also collect some jars over the Winter. I do like the idea of using store bought jars. I like that you said store bought empty jars actually work better and that many other countries use them exclusively and don’t pressure can them. I really appreciate your video.

[@jenniferr2057]

The first 3 decades I canned, I didn't know there were rules.... It was just a thing we did. Everyone did it. Then I bought the scare bait. Now I'm back to just being wise. And I'm back to canning everything.

[@jenniferr2057]

@@terri5757 You know how everyone goes on and on about botulism? Apparently, SUPER rare.... And from commercial canning, not home canning. The whole world water bathes everything yet the US creates canning police and the fear factor!

[@terri5757]

@@jenniferr2057 thank you! You are definitely helping my psyche. I had gotten so afraid about canning anything. Especially for the fear of getting botulism because most things that go bad you can use the look and smell test, but with botulism it’s not visible and you can’t taste it. But I have wondered why if botulism was so common why aren’t we hearing about cases in the news or at least hearing it from someone who knew someone who died from it. Actually I don’t know anyone who has. Not that we shouldn’t always be careful, but what you said made a lot of sense.

[@bkodra]

The little Polar jars containing fruit from Dollar Tree make excellent jam/jelly jars. I have used Heinz gravy jars for canning Italian bratwurst and it worked perfectly. The small size of the jar allowed 2 brats which will make the perfect amount of meat for spaghetti for two people. I purposely buy store brand sauerkraut and dill pickles to be able to use them after the contents are gone - around a quart size or so. No problems so far. 👍👍 If you are a stickler about the print on the jars and want to change it, you can use a spray can of paint the cover the writing/graphics up.

[@CajunBoudreaux]

To remove the paper label that is glued to the used jar, just soak jar in hot water until the paper becomes loose. Use baking soda and a scrubbing pad, and it scrubs off relatively easy. ♥️✝️♥️

[@poodledaddles1091]

I absolutely reuse store jars. The only problem is that it creates some weird gaps on the pantry shelves.

[@SurvivalHT]

lol true

[@design2c436]

Agree about the "gaps". My family has always saved the glass jars to reuse. If lid went missing they graduated to the plant shelf-window sill, to "root" cuttings. Vac sealed in many items such as rice and beans. Canned jams, jellies and picklesin many.

[@Gunn4u]

Absolutely great advice. My mother did this but mostly for jam’s and jelly’s not meat. Pretty cool

First the math. For a canned item the jar represents quarter to half of the shelf cost of the item. So these days we buy products that are in reusable jars. We also prefer jars with the Mason thread. We can then use two piece lids. Spaghetti jars are our favorite for most purposes, more than a pint less than a quart which is perfect for us. We follow procedures for quarts in processing.

[@DRFALLIS]

If you live near a Amish community some of their stores may carry replacement lug lids that you can buy individually, I suggest you take a sample of the size(s) you need a i right how many on my sample. I have had some commercial jars that look like they will take a regular mason lid but they are slightly smaller and a ring will not tighten, but you can use a mason flat and the original lid on top of a mason flat. The seal fine, just make sure you remove the original lid to check your seal after the jars have completely cooled. Some of the jars are thinner I usually reserve these for water bath canning. If I’m canning meat I use mason jars , I guess I feel like I don’t want to risk loosing my expensive contents to a broken jar, just me.

[@robertedwards7749]

At 3:28 into your video, you are discussing the interchangeability of lids. You pick up the "Rue" jar with a red lid and take it off showing a silver lid from a jar with no label.

Do boil the empty glass jars and the lids in a big pot with water for around 15 minutes. Then set them on a clean towel to dry before using them. When you fill them with hot jam, leave a little space, put on the lid, turn them around with the lid on the towel and let it cool down. Turn them back in normal position. I think jams can be preserved for some time. Usually we ate them fairly quick because it was so delicious😀 Merry christmas everyone from Europe.

You can also use the jars with the lug lids to store dried goods that won't be canned. You will need a Food Saver or other brand vacuum canister, which come in varying sizes, the larger the better.

Does this only work for pressure canning or water bath also?

Wonderful idea. Is the canning time the same? I’ve been saving these jars for awhile so I’ll give this a try. Can I add nuts to my batter then bake & seal? Great video.
