The jar you use, is it a canning jar, or canning jar lid that is attached to the tubes?

It is a Wide Mouth 1/2 gallon Ball Jar. The Lid has been modified to accept two nylon hose barbs Thank YouDanDansha Farms

the milker comes with a half gallon jar but the lid will also fit on a wide mouth quart jar which we find works better for our does right now as they aren't giving much milk.

Away on vacation right now, but pretty sure it is plastic with a rubber ring that seals the jar. Hope that helps!

Yes it is necessary, the jars can't touch the bottom of the pot. Also this only hold 3 pint jars so if you are planning to can large amounts you would be better off investing in the large canning pot. Also I suggest watching the ball canning video lots of good information. I have been canning for a number of years and found the video informative.

No. Not even close. Just tried it. :-) Besides, it best to store canning jars upright in case they break seal and leak. Best to build shelves.

The lid size is smaller than a standard canning jar, but the jars come with the appropriate lids.

I'm not 100% sure exactly what your question is. I can tell you that the rack that comes with the canner is raised just like any other bath / pressure canning rack so that the base of the jar is raised from the bottom of the canner. The only difference between this bath canner and a standard size one is the larger size.

Glass. It looks like the standard mason jar to me. It's the lid that has been altered to accommodate a straw.

The jar is air tight but does NOT have a rubber ring of any kind. I'm not sure this would work for canning. Try contacting the company with your question. Good luck. :)

You just twist the whole top half off and pour it in there and make sure the tubes are straight in there when you put the lid back on.

We have a Food Saver vacuum with the attachment that seals canning jars. I just dumped a bunch into some quart-sized jars, shook the chives down until I couldn't get anymore in, and vacuum-sealed them. Word of warning though, pry the top off VERY slowly and carefully when you want to use them or they will fly everywhere when the lid pops off!

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!

The three jars are of plastic. The lid is hinged and can be unscrewed if desired. I typically lift the hinged top to gain access.

Sabra, that's an excellent tip about using a glass quart canning jar & adding water. I presume the standard metal lid & screw band will be okay in the yogurt maker. Or do I even really need a lid at all?

I keep mine in canning jars -- you know, mason jars and the like. and those I keep in a dark cool place. With taht approach you can literally keep them for quite a few years. Personally, I'd avoid zip-loc's -- they're plastic and do drop volatiles, albeit at a very slow, non-dangerous rate, but even so -- and the jars even look cooler! :}

The old packaging was a glass jar.. But now every time I order it I get it in a tube. I feel it is easier to apply with a tube, but with a jar I was able to get every drop out.

This comes in a plastic bottle and I have not gotten anywhere near the bottom. Someone else my know the answer to your question about jars.

Not sure what you're referring to...the only inner tube on my machine is in the top of the lid. That tube just pulls out of the top feeder section easily.
