Strawberry Jam
This setting has two stages. In the first stage, the blender will heat up the fruit and pectin to 212°F (100°C), which takes about 20–25 minutes. Then, the screen will display “Add”. This is when you will add your sugar and press the wheel to resume the cycle. During the second stage, the blender will heat to 220°F (105°C). At this temperature, the pectin used to make jam will activate and create the thick “jammy” consistency we all love.
