Will the instant go clear without heating it?

Yes. Only the regular (not instant) needs heating. Remember to add sugar with the instant clear jel and then add those two to your fruit or whatever you are thickening.

Absolutely no. You have to make sure you dont use for more than 10 minutes at the time.

No. It's basically an acid in solution. As long as you keep it sealed it will be fine. I keep a mild solution it a spray bottle for quick sanitation and have never had a problem. It's amazing stuff.

Yes. You MUST unplug it BEFORE removing it from liquid. If you don't do this the unit will be damaged.

Only when first out of the vacuum seal. It goes away quick. Have not had any problem with that.

You have to boil it to the point that you know everysingle little cristal on the pad is completely melted. Don't just give it 10 minutes. One small piece that is still frozen will cause the whole thing to freeze quick again.

The heater has a separate button, so you don't have to have heat. But I use mine to make Liposomal Vitamin C, without heat, not as a jewelry cleaner.

No, I just put it into slightly warm water and it dissolves easily. But it doesn't effervese.

no you should dissolve in a small bucket of warm water and there is no need to mix it with anything else, it works fine on it's own

It's not recommended however I've saved my cleaning solution if I know I'm going to use it very soon, it won't be hot but it's good for quick spllls

According to one review below it will clear. See http://www.amazon.com/review/R3OANC4T8MHVMF/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000A2LX5O&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag=

Lukewarm shouldn't be a problem. I generally rinse mine out with hot tap water.

I don't think so, but it does remove all cooked on gook. I thought the finish on my cooktop was permanently ruined, but it is mirror-shiny again.

No it will ruin the heat film and stay activated if you put it in the microwave or dishwasher. It won't work anymore

Yes, it completely dissolves in all three. You may have to let it sit several hours (or overnight).

Well I believe I received the regular. It has to be mixed with cold water and then brought to a boil..I think the instant can be used in hot liquid. This is my first summer to use Clear Jel so I'm no expert on the issue. LOL

Nope. It's from it drying out and "burning". Just re-wet it if it's dried out.
