This would increase the acidity still more. With a definiteconcentration ofgelatin a less firm jelly is obtained as the amount of lemon juice is increased. A longer time is also required for the gelatin to set with the increased lemon juice or acidity.

Why did my gelatin dessert separate?
Your gelatin dessert may have separated due to several factors, such as not allowing it to cool properly before chilling, which can cause layers to form. Additionally, if the gelatin wasn’t fully dissolved or the mixture was stirred too vigorously, it can lead to separation. Using too much fruit juice or ingredients with high acidity, like fresh pineapple or kiwi, can also interfere with the gelatin setting properly, resulting in a layered effect. Lastly, insufficient refrigeration time may prevent the gelatin from fully setting.

Why are most sweets made out of gelatin?
most sweets are made out of gelatin because otherwise they would be made out of whale meat ^^ [edit] Actually it's probably because gelatin is extremely cheap and easy to get hold of so the alternatives (which are plently) such as Agar-Agar, Biobin, Guar, Xanthan and Carob fruit which have the same effect as gelatin are usually dismissed. This is probably a mistake because if they switched to one of the alternatives, they would make a larger capital due vegetarians and vegans who will buy their produce.
Why cooked pineapples don't have the same effect on jello as fresh pineapple?
Pineapple contains an enzyme which prevents gelatin from setting. Heat destroys (denatures) enzymes.

Are whipped topping and heavy cream the same thing?
Although it's normally made from heavy cream, whipped topping includes sugar (and possibly vanilla) when heavy cream doesn't. At least all whipped cream recipes I've looked at call for sugar. Plus air is incorporated and I don't know what effect using as a sub for heavy cream would have. Anyway, I would say no, not really.
What medicines use kosher gelatin capsules?
Kosher gelatin is pretty rare stuff, so I don't think any pharma companies would use it. I'm pretty sure the answer is "none". However, medicine taken purely for its therapeutic effect, and not at all for its taste, doesn't have to be kosher. So the best way to deal with a gelatin capsule is to wrap it in a lettuce leaf and swallow it, so that you don't taste the capsule at all.
