Division 3.1.3 Dense products (jams and jellies)

If the previously homogenized product cannot be used directly, weigh 40 g of the product to the nearest 0,01 g in a 250 ml beaker and add 100 ml of distilled water.

Boil gently for two or three minutes, stirring with a glass rod.

Cool, pour the contents of the beaker into an appropriate tared vessel using distilled water as a flushing liquid, add distilled water so as to obtain about 200 g of product, weigh it to the nearest 0,01 g, and mix the solution thoroughly.

Allow to stand for 20 minutes, then strain through a folded filter or a Büchner funnel. Make a determination on the filtrate.
