can you seal this jar?

i have bought 2 of these type of jars and yes, the jar can still be sealed.

I have not used the jar for this purpose. I actually use it as a garden solar light. As a chef though I wouldn't see why you couldn't. Not with the top it comes with. You need the two part lid with seal and ring. Making sure you have a pot large enough for immersion.

You would have to hot water bath it in boiling water deep enough to cover the entire jar according to recipe for whatever you are canning. Most recipes give water bathing time for quarts; so, you would have to do extra time for a jar this size. You would have to have a rubber/ring seal for that size lid.

The only jars safe to use for canning are those specifically made for that. This is a decorative jar only.

No, I don't think so because then it wouldn't adequately seal. Try putting warm water to the indentation in the bowl and set the dispenser in it for several minutes. It will heat the honey and then it will come out quickly and easily.

I haven't tried this but my guess would be it will not work. The size difference is to great to form the seal around the jar. If you try it let us know.

There is a raised lip inside the jar lid that fits into the jar opening, the gasket goes round that. When closed that seals the jar. Not sure what type of jars you are using but the above is the most common.

Yes. But be careful with liquids, when using the reusable lid (which will seal mason jar lids): When I sealed a liquid, it sucked up some of the liquid into the hose, and there is no way to remove the hose to clean and dry it (without sending it for repair). Also, no way to fix the retractor on the hose, if you accidently go past the red. this is easy to do, since you have to pull out the cord, in order to get a simple retraction.

That was difficult for me too. I tried the "push button" method like with metal lids but that didn't work so well. After the jars had cooled off, (a couple of hours) I lightly pulled on the lid. there were a couple of lids that seemed sealed but when I was putting them away, the lid came off. I really didn't have any more failed seals than with the metal lids, just harder to tell.

I don't think that you can! I have also learned the hard way, and I make sure that I seal the container well after using it!

With the addition of an accessory ($9.95 when I bought it here on Amazon - and usually shown as a "often bought with this WaringPro), wide mouth quart jars can be sealed with this vacuum sealer. It's the only way we store leftovers now - in glass. One note: the instructions say that traditional hot bath mason jar sealing is not replaced by this sealer, so keep that in mind if your intent was to do away with the hot bath method. That said, I've never lost a vacuum with a mason jar I've sealed with the waring pro. (But I sure have with the vacuum bags).

No, you cut it to have the shape you want and apply it (take care as the adhesive is really strong). No need to seal anything.

Yes there is a clear plastic seal. It isn't so tight it is hard to get off, but I think it is pretty airtight. The jar is huge, wish I would have gotten a little smaller one. But, I do like it.

Yes you can. However, the way the lid fits, I put some plastic wrap over-the-top as well, to seal in more of the aroma.

I would wait, if I was you. Many of the jars that I received the tops were popped up causing the seals to be broken. They were still good, I just needed to use them right away. Hope this helps.

No its more like a giant cookie jar... I am sure you could seal it though if you needed to.

Yes. There is a silicone gasket that behaves akin to a wine cork to seal the mouth of jar. When you pull up on the lid you will hear air being slowly sucked in, and in the reverse, being pushed out.

really not sure why you would want too,i'ts a safety measure . You could seal it with a spot of gorilla glue!!

yes. it seals fairly well. it doesnt seal airtight but then again you dont want to seal them airtight. the lenght of time will vary with the recipe used and the environmental factors like temp and humidity or how long they are out of the container for.

It must not have sealed well. Maybe you could contact the seller and get a replacement just to be sure. I wouldn't think it would be bad, unless it smells bad. I've ordered 2 jars but not had that problem. I always remove the blue outer wrapping and just have an unmarked jar sitting by the stove.
