Recipe(tried): Suggestions for Preventing Floating Fruit in Jam

Preserving - Jams, Jellies
Floating fruit, especially with strawberry jam is common. It is because the fruit is lighter than the syrupy part.

Allowing it to cool before putting in the jars before processing is one way. You can also sort of lightly twirl the jars as they are cooling after about half and hour. It is possible to break the gel, though, if you swirl too hard.
