Bonjour, j’ ai fais une petite erreur, j’ ai préparé 3 bocal de cerises au sirop, et 3 autre à l’ eau de vie, et j’ ai mis les 6 bocaux dans le stérilisateur, cuisson 30 minutes à 100 degres, je n’ ai plus pensé que les cerises à l’ eau de vie ne vont pas dans le stérilisateur, qu’est-ce que ça va faire,
Merci de votre réponse

Alice Jean: vous dites dans votre commentaire qu’il y a un film blanc sur l’eau…
Avez-vous utilisé de l’eau de vie ou de l’eau tout court?
