Sorry hope someone is more help, I have a few jam jars but no idea what size they are (quite big though, maybe large olive jars?) and there is always a little extra I put in small tupperware container.
Guessing two regular jam jar type sized jars?

I actually just use 500g strawberries and 500g csr jam sugar. Seems to work well for me.

made over 3 jars full...now i'm worried as i started looking up how long it would last and see you have to sterilise jars not just wash them out - why is this and what impact will mine not being sterilised have?
