Do you need wide-mouth mason jars?

Yes, you will need wide mouth jars because the special lid that comes with the kit fits on a large mouth jar. JN

Use wide mouth quart jars. The pickles turned out great. We adjusted the salt and garlic a little. We also made kimchi. Liked it as well. Haven't tried anything else yet.

Yes, you do need wide mouth mason jars. De[ending on the pickler you buy.We bought the one that goes on the wide-mouth quart or 2 quart. We love it, it makes the BEST sauerkraut. Enjoy!

As long as the lid size is the same then yes you can use quart size mason jars.

The jar sealer has to fit snugly over the jar to work. Wide-mouth jar sealers work on the wide-mouth jars. Normal sized sealers work on the normal mouth jars. They are not interchangeable.

As others have said, you can get the same volume containers in both regular and wide mouth. The "regular" lids fit a jar with a 2 5/8 inch diameter mouth and the "wide" lids fit jars with 3 1/4 inch diameter mouths.

Yes. We use the 2 quart mason jars for milk all the time, both regular and wide mouth. The Recap fits well, so we no longer transfer to the traditional milk bottles.

They work fine on the ball jars that I have different brands may be slightly different but if your wide mouth matches a ball jar I would think you are fine.

All you really need to know is: Do you have "Wide Mouth" or "Regular Mouth" canning jars. Then buy the size you need.

The regular mouth converter ring comes with it, I haven't seen anything for wide mouth jars.

Yes and no. I just checked these jars using my Toddy container. The part of this unit that needs to fit into a container is 2 5/16" (6cm) in diameter (across center point). Wide mouth (2 14/16") and NEWER narrow mouth (2 5/16") will fit fine BUT not older narrow mouth jars which are 2 4/16" across the top. That 1/16 of an inch matters, so measure your container carefully.

Cheryl, I'm not sure. The opening of a standard mason jar is 2 3/8. Your measurement might be a little off. Before you spend the money on these, I would suggest you try the lid of any regular mouth jar. If it fits, you should be good to go. I really do like the lids--used them for a baby shower and several people have asked to borrow them since.

yes, all canning jars are either regular or wide mouth. no matter whether 8 oz, pint or quart. as long as it is a regular mouth jar, it will work.

yep, you totally can. They fit perfectly. I can do 16 wide mouths, and I think I'd be able to do two more regular mouths, but I don't remember. You can not stack quarts. I bought a second rack.. It's like the rack in the bottom, only a bit smaller. I think it was $5. I don't think the jars are supposed to touch or something like that. It all still fits though.

that depends on whether the jars are regular-sized-mouth jars, or wide-mouth jars. these lids are for the regular size, the jars come in all denominations.

Jars come in wide mouth and regular- this only determines the diameter of the mouth of the jar. Think of it as a two tiered system. Regular and widemouth jars come in the same selection of oz or volume. There are half pint, pint, and 32 oz etc. wide mouth jars- allowing say large cucmbers to be pickled whole. There are half pint, pint and 32 oz etc. regular mouth jars. It's kind of amazing that new lids and bands purchased today will fit canning jars decades old- very green if you think about it.

No not wide mouth lids. These are what I call regular ones. I hope that helps.

They fit standard mason jars. I got the half pint jars but the mouth is the same size as the larger jar. I'm not sure if wide-mouthed jars are different again. The diameter of the lids are 3 inches across (about 7.5 cm) hope this helps.

Hi Bridget. Yes, but be sure to order the "Wide Mouth" vacuum lids, because half gallon size Mason jars only come with that size opening.Regards, Tom Cannon.
