Terms of use

Last updated 2026-09-18. By reading abacaxi.top you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, the remedy is simple: stop reading.

The content is information, not instruction

Every recipe, ratio, temperature and pH value on this site is published for general information. It is not professional advice, it has not been tailored to your kitchen, your water, your altitude or your equipment, and it is not a substitute for a tested canning authority. Food preservation carries a genuine risk of serious illness when it is done carelessly, and that risk sits with the person at the stove.

Your responsibility for safety

You are responsible for the safety of anything you make. In particular:

  • Boiling water bath times depend on altitude and on jar size. This site does not provide altitude corrections. If you are above sea level, consult a source that does.
  • Do not reduce the sugar in a high-methoxyl pectin recipe and expect the same set or the same keeping quality. Sugar is part of the preservation system, not a flavour adjustment.
  • Discard any jar with a broken seal, a bulging lid, visible mould, or an off smell. No number on this site overrides what your senses tell you about a specific jar.
  • If you are pregnant, immunocompromised, or preparing food for someone who is, take advice from a qualified professional rather than from a website.

Accuracy and no warranty

We try to keep the numbers right and we correct them when they are shown to be wrong. Even so, the content is provided “as is” and without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that the site will be available, uninterrupted or free of errors, and we are not liable for any loss arising from reliance on it — including a spoiled batch of fruit, which is the most likely outcome of a mistake here.

Copyright

The text, the generated figures and the layout of this site are ours. You may print a page for your own kitchen use, quote a short passage with a link back, and link to any page freely. You may not republish a record in full, mirror the site, or use its content to train or populate another publication without written permission. Scraping for the purpose of reproducing the content elsewhere is not permitted.

Third-party links

Where this site links out — to a canning authority, an equipment supplier or an advertising partner — we do not control the destination and are not responsible for its content, its accuracy or its privacy practices.

Advertising

Pages on this site display advertising served by third parties, including Google. What those parties collect and how to opt out is described in the privacy policy. Advertising has no influence on which preserves are written up or what the records say.

Changes

These terms may change; the date at the top of the page will change with them, and continuing to use the site after that constitutes acceptance.
