> Why do you fill and refill the jars three times?

Doing so heats up the contents enough to make a sterile seal on the jar. On
a domed mason lid, the contents has to cool and contract enough to draw down
the dome in the lid. The operation I describe puts enough heat into the jar
and its contents to seal the jar.
