If you don't want to spend hours stirring the mix take some of the juice out !

Thank you! I knew it was somewhere deep in a thread, but couldn't find it by searching.

I see you say you only cook your pulp down for half an hour. How long do you allow it to sit and separate? I would have liked to leave it a bit longer than over night, but I only had a small window of time to get it cooked and canned. I'm going to try to let the next batch sit a bit longer to see if I can cut the cooking time down even more.

I also see now from that thread that some just keep the tomato water fresh/uncooked and use it as a juice. I confess to not having tasted it before cooking it down, but I will sample it with the next batch.
