"The spores usually do not cause people to become sick, even when they're eaten. But under certain conditions, these spores can grow and make one of the most lethal toxins known. The conditions in which the spores can grow and make toxin are: Low-oxygen or no oxygen (anaerobic) environment." Spores are rendered inert at between 240f and 250f.

[@neppieb]

@@CountryLivingExperience I agree with this comment. I watched many videos on dry canning beans, but your video was easy to understand and didn't make me feel like it was that hard. 1 question I do have is, "do you remove the rings once the seals are good? Thanks

[@michelegregory7272]

@@neppieb If the seal is good, there’s no reason to leave rings on canned goods.

[@evil1by1]

@@neppieb you shouldn't leave the rings on. If a seal is going to fail you *want* it to fail and you want to know, you don't want a ring helping to hide a seal failure. If a ring is on tight enough you can get a seal failure and reseal but it's contaminated at that point and not safe to eat.

[@theresalogsdon765]

You dont pick your beans?. You know pouring them out on a Pan or Towel and remove the Debris before Canning? Sometimes, it's just broken beans, a rock or a piece of the Stem from the plants. Most have some, others alot and some none. That was passed down to me as a rule for Dry Canning Beans from Gma and Mom. Nothing wrong with not. But thought everyone did this. Lol. Thanks for show this. It helps alot of Beginners and ones who have been Canning for awhile. ❤🙏❤️🙏

[@michaelprestridge4622]

@8:44 you go from talking about placing jars back in the oven to Lids, you said put lids in for last 15 min of process. You never gave length of time for the process, I watched a couple of times to make sure. thanks for the great video.

[@CountryLivingExperience]

Thanks. The product stays in the oven for 30 minutes min in the unsealed jar. The lids go in for the last 15 minutes of the entire process. So the total time ,including the original 15 minutes for jar sterilization, is 45 minutes. Hope that helps.

[@kirkwaggoner7573]

@10:19 he says "Half an hour is done, the timer just went off", so 15 min. sterilization, 15 min start of run before lids go in, 15 min. to finish.

I'm going to differ on the need for headspace on dry good's, there is already to much air in the jar as it is. As long as there is not so much product in the jar that it would prevent the lid from popping your fine. The fuller it is the less air that is in it which is the goal.

Hello! Just wanted to give an update 2 years later on that massive dry canning session I did. It was a tremendous success! Here is a more in depth list of everything I canned. Red and white quinoa, white, brown and basmati rice, white flour, cornmeal, green split peas, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, pasta, bulgar wheat, mung beans, white beans, pinto beans, the 13 bean mix from bobs red mill and a few other things. Fantastic success!! Out of everything I canned and it was well over a hundred quart size jars, I lost about 20. The cornmeal did not keep it's seal, I had been checking my jars semi frequently and about 6 months in when I checked again the seals had popped open and I had visitors. Also lost some of my white flour. Seemed like the ones that I put in wide mouth jars didn't keep their seal. Overall fantastic success! This has changed the way I approach my food storage and shop in bulk on sale. Thank you! And input on the failures would be awesome if you have time ❤️

I loved your step by step instructions but didn't consider one thing, I live in Florida and there is a lot of moisture, aka humidity this time of year. This is my 1st attempt at dry canning dried beans and used larger jars (1/2 gallon). I ended up with moisture inside the canning jars even though I followed instructions. Making a note that timing is everything, especially if you live in Fl., and possibly my jars were too big? Affirming the statement, "Size matters"

[@CountryLivingExperience]

Florida is tough for this type of method, especially in the summer. 1/2 gallons need at least an hour but that is with a bean with less moisture. I might dry them out on a baking sheet in the oven at a low temp first and then add them to the jar.....or just save the dry canning for beans and rice and vacuum pack the beans.

Would the 30 minute time work for 1/2 gallon jars,or would I need to extend the time? Going to vann rice a 1/2 gallon fits our usage better than quart.

[@CountryLivingExperience]

I would actually go about 45 minutes to an hour for 1/2 gallon jars.

[@redfishbandit6306]

@@CountryLivingExperience thanks

[@mcsfarrugia]

Would that time frame be for both sterilization time (without anything in the jar) and after you fill it and pop it back in with the item you’re canning?

[@ASeedonGoodSoil]

Would I be able to also add an oxygen absorber once they cool off?

[@valleygirl4161]

Thank you for the video. I’ve done rice and it woks great. But can I can wheat berries this way?

[@CountryLivingExperience]

You're welcome. Sorry, you cannot dry can the wheat berries because they still have the bran and germ layers which hold oils and moisture.

[@isuggsy]

I'd want to wash the rice and leave it to dry out completely before dry canning because rice has arsenic in it and I had a friend from China where their family worked in the rice fields and she told me that they get pushed all over a dirty floor.

Is doing this necessary for any reason? I've eaten rice over 10 years old, and it seemed fine, however beans are awfully tough at that age and need to be cooked a long time. Does this prevent that? Also, how long should this last after doing this? I just store my stuff in galvanized and food grade plastic trash cans, and it seems fine.

[@daughterofthemosthighking5095]

As he mentioned in the video it kills bugs and bug larvae that might be in the dry goods.

[@Cojo910]

If you have any mice, the jars will keep them out whereas they have eaten through the plastic bags.

[@pretzeltwisttwist7740]

I had the same question. Regarding the bugs, wouldn't they be killed when you cook the rice, beans, etc.?

[@pattycastle7863]

[@CountryLivingExperience]

Great.

[@jessicaj8148]

I have never caned anything yet. I have all the supplies, but keep putting it off. I have a lot of rice and want to do this. Very good video!

[@CountryLivingExperience]

Thank you. This can be a very challenging process if there is too much moisture present in the product. I may suggest vacuum sealing rice and beans to start your canning experience.
