I think it might also be worth considering that vinegar is relative volatile, so your starting 5% might not be actual 5% afterwards. If you could get your hands on something more concentrated and filter sterilize that, then mix it with your pectin after you've dissolved it by autoclaving with just water, maybe that could work?

I suppose my worry would be whether the vinegar is better able to attack its container at 120°C, so maybe important to choose the right material..--On 24 March 2020 15:53:18 GMT+00:00, "Andreas "Mega" Stuermer" <andreas.t.stuermer@gmail.com> wrote:Hi everyone,
Growing some bioplastics right now.
Dissolving Pectin is really hard but autoclaving it is just magical.
Not, ideally I want it dissolved in 5% acetic acid ("table vinegar").
Flaming point is 38°C but ignition temperature seems above 400°C.
Is it smart to autoclave 100 or 500 mL of vinegar?
Just realizing how much better molecular biology is because there risk of anything exploding is practically zero
