Can I double a recipe for pepper jelly? I have a basic jalapeno pepper jelly recipe: jalapenos, bell peppers, apple cider vinegar, sugar, liquid pectin. It makes 7-8 cups per recipe. Since I'm starting to sell these at a local farmers market, I'd like to make about double that at one time. I do have pots & a canner that will hold that many half pint jars. I'm just wondering if it would be OK to double the ingredients without any problems.
