If you buy the Classic Pectin, you’ll be stuck boiling the jam and processing it with a water bath canner. (This is fairly easy to do, but if you’ve planned on super simple, quick and easy freezer jam, you will definitely be spending more time and cleaning up more mess than you bargained for!) On the plus side, you can store the jam processed with the water bath canner on a shelf in your pantry, saving all kinds of freezer space.

Glass works well for freezing as long as you follow a few guidelines: http://nchfp.uga.edu/questions/FAQ_freezing.html#21
Not sure on the guidelines for length of time in the freezer, but ours has lasted for a year in the freezer, and I can’t tell a difference between the jar we just pulled out of the freezer and the first jar we used a year ago. (You’re actually lucky if it lasts that long!) 🙂
