Is this a pot that you could make jam/jelly in?

This is a large pot. It can be used as the water bath canner to process the jars in, but would be too large to make the jam in since jams and jellies are usually made in small batches.

Only as a water bath canner (jams, jellies are to be cooked in small batches so therefore this pot would be much too large for your purpose as I understand it). As a water bath canner, only PINTS fit in this model, not quarts.

I made a batch of jam (7 half-pint jars), not a huge batch. It worked fine.

yes, but you would have to be making a huge batch. I have used it for making everything from cheese, to apple sauce, to bone broth.

I wouldn't do it. It's got a glass top that could crack. Also the base isn't exactly industrial- that being said I routinely make five quarts of jambalaya on mine

I have only used the steamer for juicing blueberries to make blueberry jelly. From that experience it would not be sufficient for me to use for canning other foods. I'm sure you could cook items for canning in the bottom pot itself if not cooking a large amount at the time. The pot is large enough for doing a 10 min boiling bath on jelly jars if you wanted. Not pints or quarts. I also plan to use the steamer to steam my squash and okra for freezing this summer. It is an excellent steamer for freezer veggies. Hope that helps ! Carol

I have never tried but then when you think about the temperature that the jelly has to be, it may work. May want to call Ball.

Probably so. It's made of silicone so if you're ok with steaming in silicone you should be good. You will need a decent size pot though.

Yes. Not the best pot for a good décor, but it does come with the pot. (I think its plastic.)

It's real big and wide. Don't worry it's the best pot for Gumbo, homemade soup, and any kinda of stew. I'm from NO so I know wat you looking for. It s the best pot. Trust me I been making okra gumbo since I got it. And you can broil in. Crabs of course.

I don't believe it has a program to make jam. I'm not sure if breadmakers have this feature at all. I have this one and the Panasonic and I don't think either can be used to make jam.

Not to my knowledge, but I do remember doing a search for different jams. Maybe they have some for jelly on the product web site.

I don't know how much Jam you plan to make, however, I can make enough spaghetti sauce for 6 and still have left over sauce. This pot is a great size, large enough for stews, small enough to fit in the kitchen sink for easy clean. I have a double sink and it takes up most of the one sink, if that helps.

No. It is like other china/pottery tea pots. You boil water in a kettle and then pour it into the tea pot with you tea.

Yes. Its a nice lightweight midsize pot that is well made and I was able to get at a pretty good price. I've been really happy with my purchase of this pot.

It's solid. Honestly, in looking back, I wouldn't have purchased this pot. It's just too fussy for what it is.

Yes, but you need to be careful. The kit is a real mess kit, not a toy. The metal is not as thick as regular pots and pans, so you need to watch the foof closely to prevent burning. Mostly it's good for light cooking and heating things up -- canned stew, soup, beans, hot dogs, hamburgers, scrambled eggs, etc. things kids can cook easily. Be sure to use pot holders...the handles heat up too!

I have only ever made jams and jellies, never tried anything else. It is wonderful, love it.

Yes, you can use it to make candy, but you cannot leave it in the pot as the candy is cooking. Insert it and hold it for a few seconds and then remove it.
