I've never had much luck using commercial juice using the boiling
down method to make jelly. It just doesn't seem to have the pectin,
filtered and pasteurized out I'd say. If you are using added pectin, be
sure to measure the juice *exactly* and then scoop about 1/4 cup out.
Sloppy measuring has ruined more of my stuff...
And make sure you are bringing the juice to a Full Rolling Boil. I've
had better results when I made sure of those big bubbles before I
started timing.
Good luck!
