If your jelly absoluty refuses to set up, even after cooking it back down the second time, just call it by another name!
Last year I had one batch of apple jelly that just refused to jell, but it tasted great. So, we just canned it as it was, and labled in pancake syrup or ice cream topping.

Funny - a couple of years ago, the same thing happened to me. I guess my pectin was old. We used it up on pancakes and waffles. When my jam sets up too firm, I throw some in our morning smoothies. I also found a cookie recipe that uses jam for a filling, which I make with either failed jam recipes or the leftover remains from jars in the fridge. After going through so much work making it, there is no need to toss it!
