Waterbath Canning Steps Explained – Prepping Canning Jars & Canner and Filling the Jars

We are getting to the exciting canning process steps in this canning tutorial course! In this video, Annette Thurmon shows us how to prep canning jars, the waterbath canner pot, and shows us how to properly measure and fill the Ball mason jars.
She walks us through the following steps:
Inspecting the canning jars for cracks and inspecting the lids and bands to ensure they are new.
Then wash and dry everything.

PRO TIP - Prep food ingredients and jar contents in advance so you can follow the recipe easily.

Next, start warming the jars and beware of extreme temperature differences between ingredients, jars, and water.
Fill the jars with the contents according to recipes.
Use a Headspace and Bubble Remover tool to measure headspace and remove remaining air.
Clean outside of the jar with towel.
Finally, place dry lid on jar and fingertip tighten the band and lower jar into simmering water, slowly turning it up to a boil.

PRO TIP - Do not fill all jars at same time like an assembly line, fill and place 1 jar into the canner at a time to avoid temperature issues.
