I normally my tomato sauce to the very top of the bottles when making it. Yesterday had to get my darling hubbie to finish because i ran out of time and had to take my daughter to an after school acitivies. I see that he hasn't filled the bottles right up. I 'm hoping that won't cause them to go yuk and mouldy as there will be air in them I have only every filled them to the top, has anyone not filled them to the top and they been ok.

Just checked my bottles of tomato sauce and I haven't filled mine to the tops of the bottles - never have in the past and the sauce has been fine even after a few years.

Air is not a cause of "yuk and mouldy", lack of sterilisation is.
