Do bigger jars fit in here or only pint jars? Like would the big ones for canning tomatos fit?

I can in half-Pint, Pint & Quart jars. Just adjust water level so it is about an inch or two above the jars you are using.

I measured mine today. It is true, you cannot use the rack that comes with it, but I have a ~5-inch little trivet that works really well. I checked--you can put 3 pint jars in it while sitting on my little trivet. (NEVER put the jars directly on the bottom.) I read the instruction book, and there is a reference to a Ball canning lid being ok to use in it. They do not say you can use it to pressure can, but I am taking that reference as being that it is ok to use it to can (ALWAYS WITH CARE!) You must not overfill the unit. My unit only takes 3 pint jars--no quarts. Another consideration is that a proper "canner" came with a rack to hold each jar in place so they do not bang each other. I am going to take chunks of aluminum foil and wad it loosely up and stuff it in a loop between the pint jars to hold them apart. For my first attempt I may sit it out on the deck, just in case :-), but I really do not think there should be a problem.

I think rubes fit but not large jars. Mine keeps falling apart. You will need to glue it together if you buy it.

I have pint jars (16 oz) and they fit. They work great! Not sure about quart size (32 oz), you'll have to ask them...

No. I bought a set of the jars that goes with this. I just read the answers posted and the spice jars i bought at job lot are all large sized and they are too tall

Mr. Zeigler, I use these small pint-size jars for a great many things in my kitchen cabinets (spices and and in my refrigerator to store small amounts of left overs. I have not stacked these at all because I am fearful the top jar would topple.

It will depend on the size of jar she will mainly use. My wife uses a lot of the pint size so the bigger was better. If she mainly will use quart the small will be fine.

Fit pints and regular (not wide mouth) quarts. There are white plastic lids that fit wide mouth jars. Don't know diameter of gallon jar mouths.

Yes, the side that holds 7 pint jars will hold 7 half-pints. Some of my half-pint jelly jars with narrow bottoms were a little wobbly but generally speaking, it worked well.

Hi Cathy. I used pint jars just fine. I'm sure half pint (jelly jars) will be fine as well. Have fun!

The lids work very well! As for size, if you bought the jars new the words 'regular' or 'wide mouth' would be on the packaging. You may want to remeasure as a 2" opening is not a size with which I am familiar.

I THINK you might get 24, 1/2 pint jars to fit. It IS airtight. Her are the approx INTERNAL dimensions. approx 15' tall, by 10 inches wide by 9.5 inches deep. EXCEPT in the middle of the back of the incubator, there is a fan that protrudes into the space. SO....I think you might be able to get 2 rows stacked up of 9 jars each and 1 row of 2 jars stacked 6 up. That is your 24, so you MAY be able to do it. Hope this helps. My suggestion is that you mark off a space ith those dimensions and see if what you have fits. Good luck. (All the shelving is removable so you have full use of the interior.)

I honestly dont know. I bought the lids for a craft not for canning so I dont have experience with the jars at all...sorry!

Yes The regular lids fit regular quart jars, regular pint jars (jelly) and even the half pint small jars. Just make sure not to get wide mouth unless you have wide mouth jars.

I have this caddy. Pint jars would only fit in the two center compartments. The four end compartments are curved, so the jar doesn't quite fit.

Good Morning from Butler,mn:In response to your question regarding the pint jar as an additional jar...The answer is no. As I have tried both the regular & wide mouth jars. To no avail.I hope this answers your curiosity.

It depends on the size but you can certainly use jars from other yogurt makers, you would just put them in. They should fit, I believe most are similar, but I cant confirm.. you would have to compare the size of the jars.
