do you usually put the inner container inside the main jar? Does it work this way?

There are 2 separate containers (the upper has a removable divider cup)which both go inside. One has a thermal non-watertight lid and is designed to keep food hot. Both need to go inside the outer jar to be stable, so side items will get heated to at least room temperature. If you want to keep the sides cold, you should get the other type that has a thermal jar and separate side containers. Zojirushi Mini Bento Stainless Lunch Jar Set

I am wondering about this too. I want to use the Mason jar method, but don't know if I should use a traditional mason jar lid, a new-fangled screw on mason jar lid, or no lid, while the machine is working.Thanks!

It goes in the bottom of the orange part that screws on top of the jar. I'll see if I can take a pic and post to the product page

No. They each have their own lid and the smaller one is too small for the larger container.

can someone provide instructions as to how to fit all the parts in the container for storage?

No, but I have used small jars like pimentos & it worked well! My pantry shelves aren't very tall, so this was perfect!

Yes. One of my jars arrived broken, and I substituted a "Wyler's bouillon" jar. It works very well. The cover is not interchangeable with the others, but that is not a problem. Plus, it is nice to have extra jars so available.

Even if it could, you'd have a hard time getting the canning jar to fit inside. This container is not that tall. I'd say even a pint jar would be a close fit.

I use my jars for dry good storage. I would contact the maker before using in a pressure canner.

I think the larger container will do the job. I haven't had to use mine yet, but that is the reason I purchased it.

If its larger than the jar, just hold it down-works fine. If its smaller than the jar it probably won't work.

Since it only comes with the one inside container, which is plastic, it is simply more convenient to use glass canning jars if you want to make another batch before the first one is totally consumed.

You must use a basket like this or a rack to process your jars when canning. The water needs to be able to circulate around the entire jar, including the bottom of the jar. If you put the jars directly in your pot without a rack or basket the water can't move around under the jars and they won't process correctly.

Absolutely no problem, keep the jar closed and you will be happy with the quality. Keep it in thd fridge, when you serve it, not too much sifup. Have fun

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.)

no jar, but I would recommend at least the quart size jars. I use canning jars and the plastic canning jar lids to store what I've made. Initially I did pint jars, but that's a little small.

The little jars are silly. I retired them and the cover lid after the first batch. Now I re-use two large 32 oz standard yogurt containers. Two of them fit well, then I am adding a third 16 oz container. (Three large containers will not quite fit. I just cover it all with a clean kitchen towel and leave it for 8-10 hours. Works great! I also noticed that the milk will contract when it becomes yogurt so you will have less volume of yogurt than of the starting milk. I measure up full containers when I start, then add another cup or so of milk to be heated.
