Why pasteurise?
Pasteurising makes a world of difference to the length of time you can store your juice or cider. Fresh apple juice will keep in the fridge for 2 to 3 days before it begins to ferment, but if pasteurised can be stored for anything up to 2 years. Any cider can be pasteurised as a "belt and braces" way of stopping further fermentation. This is essential for ciders that are naturally sweet or have had sugar added after fermentation. Pasteurised cider will keep for up to 12 months.
Pasteurising involves carefully heating the juice or cider to 75°C and holding at this temperature for 20 minutes. This is difficult to do using a hob and can result in juice with a cooked apple flavour or juice that is not properly pasteurised. Using our purpose-built digital pasteuriser with thermostat and timer makes pasteurising easy!

Bottling fruit & veg
Granny’s old rules for preserving have not changed over time! Preserving is simply sterilising food in special glass containers without using chemicals. Using our pasteuriser the even heat generated helps to kill germs and create a vacuum that cleverly seals your jars. For more information on bottling fruit see How to bottle fruit.
