Does this solidify/make jello when chilled?

I'm sorry I haven't used this product for that purpose as yet. May try doing so and will post the result

I don't believe it will. You can mix with cold, warm or hot water and it dissolves completely and instantly with stirring. I have never tried to chill it and make jello out of it though. Have you gone to the Great Lakes website to see what they say about it? I love this product!

To answer your question. I put a small amount in a little water and let it set. When I went to check on it there was no difference.. I think that because it is hydrolyzed it doesn't set up like gelatin, even though it is gelatin. I will let it stay overnight in the dish and see if that works. It dissolves very fast. I will get back to you. Gwen

I have not frozen this, so I can not address that. But I have stored it in a cool dark drawer for as much as a year with little ill effects. I do keep it tightly sealed in a Tupperware style container. (Letting it dry out will obviously make it difficult to work with and it will not have the desired 'melt in your mouth' quality it has when you first open it.) I am a big fan of this product and have no problems coming up with ways to use it.

Yes, it becomes liquid once it has been heated up. Then it will solidify after it has cooled but the more you heat it up, the lose it gets. Mine comes out thick now but it isn't as solid anymore. I'm pretty sure you can mix it with an essence oil to make it smell more "prettier". I wouldn't recommend using Castor Oil because like you said-that doesn't smell more pleasant neither.

Absolutely. This is the best product i have found for thickening about everything. Their website has instructions for both Freezer Jelly and refrigerator jelly. Combine crushed fruit, sugar and lemon juice in medium bowl. Gradually add Ultra Gel, stirring constantly. Let stand five minutes to thicken and stir until smooth. Package, label, date and freeze for up to one year.

I only add gelatin to my preserved figs to make them firmer. I also add gelatin to my homemade yogurt to firm it up. I normally use certo for jellies only because I hadn't thought to try the Gelatin. duh! WHY NOT TRY IT!! Not sure of the ratio, though.

I use this to make balistic(?) Gel so you can definitely use it to make jello. The more concentrated you have the gel to water ratio the thicker your cube of gel will be.

Yes. If it is mixed weakly. You will need to make sure the mixture you put in has a high-ish fat content (cream/pudding/milk base). If you pour straight vodka in it, I do not think it would freeze very well considering the very low freezing point of high proof/vodka/liqueur.

It should solidify at room temperature. Mine also came in liquid form due to the weather and now it's solid in my pantry.

Yes it is very easy. Take the large lid on the bottom off place mold on a plate release the small lid on top it will release the jello. I make cramberry relish in it it turns out really pretty. I also form meatloaf in the mold. it makes a pretty meat dish to take to a gathering.

If you run the maker until it stops the product will be fluffy but it has a timer so you can set it to stop earlier which will produce a more dense product...but you would need to place product in the freezer to firm up. I love this machine!

Yes, it is made with beeswax and will liquefy if it gets too warm but will solidify again when it cools.

I also discovered the base comes apart when I got water in it after cleaning. I am also curious to know if freezing water inside will help ice cream solidify a little more quickly. I don't see the harm in trying it, so if I do get around to trying it, I will do my best to post a response about it.

Yes but the beer you put in should be cold first. It excellent at holding the tempature so if you put warm beer in it, even in the fridge it will take awhile to get it cold.

Yes when it gets below 60 or so it solidifies. Just warm it up and it will be fine. Knowing this is over a year old, the info still applies.

It's a harder plastic. Maybe if you sprayed it and they could fall out but you cannot push the plastic. I wouldn't think that it would be any different than a typical jello mold though.

It's been a couple of years since I used it to make pudding. If I remember correctly, I should have made it so that it was chilled for at least 24 hrs because my grandson didn't like it the day I made it. It tasted better the next day. I don't think it would probably change the taste of what you're adding it to. I don't know what you're using it for though.

Used mine a few times. At large parties, I believe everything is chilled below room temp. However the novelty of it results in constant emptying of all containers!
