[@mickey3977]

A couple of things to note... the headspace first mentioned was a half inch and later it was a full inch. A full inch is correct. In this demonstration, you used the All American canner. In the instruction manual it says to wait one minute after removing the weight before removing the canner lid, not ten minutes. I recommend reading your manual thoroughly for every brand of canner before initially using it for what each manufacturer recommends.

I got my 1st pressure canner a week ago and used it for the 1st time last night. I canned 3 pints of okra as a test. I think I did pretty good. I got the smallest All American canner bc that’s all I could afford. So far it’s a success. I had trouble getting the pressure right so the weight only jiggled 1-4 times a minute but I think I will eventually know exactly what temperature I need to set it at after a few uses.

Jason Shell yes, but someone else may be using one with the gasket and that's not necessary. She did not mention though to check the vent hole to make sure it was clear. And to check the gasket if using that type of canner. I always suggest to someone new to pressure canning is to read the canner manual!

[@kan-zee]

Whay size All American canner was used in this video? Was it 921 or the 915?

[@GoodEarthSpa]

I noticed the lids weren't heated. I've heard conflicting information about this. What do you recommend? Does it matter?

[@ravenblackhawke]

Everyone should read the manufacturer's use and care information on the package. The lids are also called flats. You need to read the use and care information because some state the lids (flats) must be sanitized and how to do that, while others state just placing them in hot water that has boiled and is still a bit hot is recommended. Reason for difference is the type of orange silicone seal used under the flats as 2 types were produced, one thicker and one thinner orange lid seal, so you need to know which type you are purchasing and how to care and use it properly.

[@krystlelynch7707]

It's my understanding that in lids that used to be manufactured, boiling of the lid was recommended to soften the wax. Within the last year or two, new lids have been released where they do NOT recommend pre-boiling. In fact, I've seen a lot of complaining in Facebook canning groups I'm part of that new lids seem to cause more seal-fail. But I think it's because they're still trying to boil the lids prior to applying them to the jar. I canned all last summer (salsas, beans, etc) and never once boiled my lids (the "newer" lids). I had zero seal failures.

[@kan-zee]

@@krystlelynch7707 Does heating the lids in hot water, improve the sealing process ?? or is it all about sanitary purposes ?

[@krystlelynch7707]

It depends on lids. The directions on old lids stated that they needed to be simmered. That is not the case on new lids. I use new lids, I do not simmer, and I get perfect seals. The new lids require washing still. I wash as directed for sanitary purposes and have zero seal issues.

[@tarafox6618]

Heating lids is for jams, pickles or simple water bath canning situations. Not necessary when pressure canning.

[@jerrymcbroom8560]

Does it matter if the jars touch while the process is happening?

[@nielsf]

I would avoid it. A water canner can make the jars jiggle against eachother with each bubble of water and cause a fracture over repeated use. The pressure canner needs to get evenly hot everywhere to kill the bad stuff and if you have large area's of jar touching each other it could mess up in that spot. Square jars are more prone at this. It's also why you don't mix different volume of jars together. My grandma even got cross at my mother one day since my mom thought as long as the volume of the contents are the same it would work. So she put a big jar that was only half filled in with the smaller sizes. Grandma was not pleased at all. Feels like pressure canning is about 50% cooking and 50% science instructions.

[@lindawilson5937]

cold water to started/ so should i have heated the water before i put my jars in

[@tammyshifflett993]

Could you just start out with cold water in the jars and in the canner since everything has to come up to a boil anyway. It seems to me this would make it easier and safer from burns and possible jar breakage. I've always water bath canned and started out everything this way except that obviously I put boiling water in when I needed to add water. I just bought a pressure canner yesterday and I couldn't keep the jars hot anyway so I was scared to death every time I put a jar into the canner although the water in there wasn't boiling yet but it was very hot as per the directions. Please help. Thank you.

[@bobl6816]

How much headspace would you use for Tuna Antipasto in a pressure canner for 1 pint and 1/2 pint jars (Yes I realize USDA does not support Tuna Pasto canning). Is it true you need more headspace when pressure canning as opposed to when your are water-bath canning? Can you also tell me if there is a conversion factor for cooking-time when taking a water-bath canning recipe to a pressure canner recipe? Is there also less time used based on what lbs/pressure used in the pressure canner?

[@dozer12ky]

Could you reuse that water if you had another batch ready?

[@missymyers7043]

Would you use a tool (fork, tongs) to remove carrots from jars instead of bare fingers; due to contamination? Or will the boiling process remove that?

[@nielsf]

Before pressure canning, just remove them with what is easier, I would not do it if i already cleaned the rim with a towel with vinigar though. Skin has a coating of oil on them and it's best to just avoid impurities before placing the lids on the jars After pressure canning only use clean utensils to take out the contents to avoid contamination of the brine, same thing really with stuff like mayonaise and pickles from the store and so on.

you could always buy a portable electric burner

[@mickey3977]

I use LP burners in my outdoor canning center. In fact, i have 5 burners set up out there so i can run 3 canners at the same time and still have burners for boiling water and or if I need the food to be canned heated before placing until the jars. If you are using a 23 qt pressure canner or smaller, you should be able to use it on your glass top. Do not slide the canner off the burner area to cool. You must lift the canner up. Double check your range manufacturer first to make sure of the weight load capacity of the burner area. Some of the larger and heavier canners, like AA are not recommended to use lb glass tops because of the weight. They may crack the glass top.

FYI, the highest point in Ohio is 1,550 ft above sea level which is Located just outside of Bellefontaine. Where I live it’s 1,150 ft ASL. Due to the misinformation on pressure in this video I’ll just have to read my canner manual to know which rocker weight to use. No biggie, most of this is good info for a newbie like me.

[@forageforage3520]

Scott did they say they were at 1550 ft above sea level?..I'm pretty sure that at altitude.. you would be setting that weighted gauge on the 15lb position and the dial gauge would/should be pretty close to that. Is that what you were thinking?

[@scottwallace3449]

Assuming they did the recording at Lehman’s in Dalton, OH, the elevation would have been 1,100 feet above sea level. That would equate to 10 lbs. if I’m not mistaken.

[@forageforage3520]

OK Scott..this is what I got back directly from All American. I told them I had their 921 Unit both weighted gauge & dial on lid, and that I am at 1135 feet altitude: Their reply: You would use 15 lb PSI for your elevation and you gauge can be +/- 2 pounds so once you reach the 15lb PSI with the weight then your gauge could read anywhere from 13-17PSI. Does this help you? It

[@scottwallace3449]

👍 Thanks for the info. Pressure canning is not for the faint of heart I’d guess. I would think, though, a 10% +/- pressure setting variance would be well within tolerances. Instead of using common sense I’ll have to obey the powers that be and submit to their rules. BTW, have you ever heard about the Rebel Canners group on FB? 😉

[@leahstern702]

@Mααrʈεn M The rings are not needed once they are cool--the seal is maintained by the vacuum in jar and sealant (red rubber under the lid); it's always recommended to remove the for cleaning and testing seals; you can then replace them or leave them off. You should be able to lift a properly canned jar by the lid--no ring on--to verify a seal.

[@cathyrowe594]

Glen Thomas, you remove the rings because they can cause a false seal. A jar can come out of the canner with a weak seal but appear to be fine. When this happens, the food spoils, gasses build up pressure inside the jar & pops the flat off, if there is no ring & you would notice it. With the ring on, the pressure can't escape but can allow a small amount of liquid or food to spew under the flat, making it sticky enough to hold fast to the jar. It would be easy to be fooled by how tight the flat was upon removal & not catch that there was a problem. This is also why it's not a good idea to stack jars on pantry shelves. The weight of the upper jar doesn't allow the flat to pop off.

[@nielsf]

The iron thing the lady on the left is holding is a weight. It has holes in the side with a number etched beside it. By placing the weight on the little venting hole the pressure canner will go upto that number in pressure before it can vent the steam. So you can "hold" the canner on that amount of pressure and not turn the canner in a explosive hazard. So if you place the weight on the vent at the hole marked 10, the canner would need to reach above 10 pounds of pressure to "push" the weight up enough to release steam. works like a valve really.

Now they may have changed it, but my understanding is that between 0-1000ft above sea level is 10# and anything above 1000ft needs to use the 15# weight. AAAAANNNNDDD the reason you do not need to sanitize the jars is NOT because they are going to boil for more than 10 minutes (otherwise you wouldn't need to sanitize for waterbath canning either) - it is because you will be canning at a temperature ABOVE the boiling temperature whereas the waterbath method will NEVER exceed the boiling point.

It should also have been mentioned that STEAM CANNING and OVEN CANNING are no longer acceptable, nor is turning jars over instead of water bath canning items like tomatoes. And no more wax for jellies or jams. And I would love to see something mething on "souring" of items such as corn, and how to prevent it.

Actually steam canning is now considered safe for high acid foods, thanks to extensive testing performed at the U of Wisconsin. Please see: fyi.uwex.edu/safepreserving/2015/06/24/safe-preserving-using-an-atmospheric-steam-canner/ from the U of Wisconsin and www.sbcanning.com/2015/07/steam-canners-for-high-acid-food-only.html

sunrat1 thank you so much for the information! It's refreshing to see someone using critical thinking skills and encouraging better research in regards to the science of canning instead of getting emotional over the "obeying the rules". Saving the second link. I would love the information that the first link once contained in regards to the study which shows that steam canning is safe for low acid foods, however, that link currently states "page not found". Do you happen to know another link that has that information on it?

[@TattingChic]

Never mind - I searched "atmospheric steam canner" on the University of Wisconsin Extension website and this showed up: fyi.uwex.edu/safepreserving/2017/10/24/safe-preserving-using-a-steam-canner/

my mother never owned a pressure canner, she steam-canned everything although she never canned anything with meat in it. nobody in my family died or got sick from it...

[@codysorrell8550]

I've been canning for a long time but not with a pressure canner. I bought one and tried it. She says to fill to 1 inch below the rim. That is way too much head space! I followed those instructions exactly and now I have 9 jars that are less than 3/4 full

謝謝！這影片裡的資訊對我非常有用處！

This video has so much wrong information. Please just follow the Ball Canning book and not this video!

[@mackdeen7021]

Salting fish is done today. All over the world.

[@CanadianBrewingChannel]

If you release the pressure after turning the heat off, it does not create a vacuum. It causes the super heated water in the jars to boil. There is no such thing as a vacuum!

I am watching this video and it’s good information for a beginner like me but I didn’t like the way the lady that’s doing the teaching is speaking to the other lady like she’s a child. I assume the other lady has canned before but she’s just going along with the instructor.

[@janathefirst]

I am sorry but my opinion is this should be removed as it has not enough info and some incorrect info that could be dangerous in canning

[@melissaoncoast]

Why would you can those horrible carrots! Shame

[@dalex60]

The instructor comes across a little condescending...

[@sandraantoniohuber7820]
