You still need to follow the proper recipe O. Most say just bring the
product to a boil and hold it for x number of minutes. That is to
sterilize the product, not to boil down the vinegar. 5% is the standard
in the US, other nations have different standards. I would go with the
6% and just follow the recipe.
