NUMBER 11: Store your manual and all additional information (in a Ziploc bag) inside each separate piece of canning equipment. This way when you can't remember how much water to use for your equipment you can look it up......or your model number for replacement parts.....or customer service number, etc.

A couple other mistakes to note. I now do a double or triple wipe of the jar rims each time to make sure they’re clean. I was having problems with failures when I was just doing one wipe. The other thing to note is accurate headspace measuring. This is critically important as well. Pam, thanks for the great videos. Very informative.

Haven't started canning yet, but I'm taking my time to learn about it, and I think I definitely would have let my jars sit for an excessive amount of time inside the canner because I had no idea that could potentially breed bacteria from the jars staying too hot for too long.

I just bought one of those three-piece weights for my Presto. I'm excited to try it out. I use the cover lock on my canner as an indicator of the steam inside the canner - once it pops up, then I'm sure there's a good flow of steam and I start the ten minute timing before putting on the pressure regulator - it's not left up to my subjective judgment on how steady the stream is.

One issue I had with my Presto canner was finding the bottom mark for filling your water. I saw a tip online that works for me. I got my debubbler and marked it with the correct level with an arrow showing which end goes down. Now I can see the fill level without straining.
@lenelenore
@lenelenore 11 ай бұрын
I filled mine to the proper level the first time I used it, then stuck the handle of one of my wooden spoons into the canner, and pulled it out. I used a permanent marker to draw a line at the spot where the handle went from dry to wet, and now when I fill with water, I just stick the spoon in and make sure the waterline reaches the mark on the spoon.

Extension office should be able to calibrate your dials, however they are not always easily found. I have 3 canners...a presto regular, an all American for large batches & an electric for small batches. Each has their own equipment (funnel, jar lifter, magnet stick, debubbler, jigglers) & manual stored inside. Pertinent points are highlighted in each manual or written inside (capacity, volume of water to get the 2 or 3" required, etc). Never leave the house or get too busy in a room when it is running, even the electric. Always open the lid AWAY from you so you don't get a face full of steam!

I didn’t know to check the pop up air vent when I started canning, & it came unscrewed & dropped into the canner when it was near pressure 😬🫣😱☠️☠️☠️ it was terrifying, but we heard it & immediately turned off the heat & let it cool, & then fixed it & re canned the contents. I check it all EVERY SINGLE TIME now.

We would go back packing high in the Rocky Mountains. Getting water to boil was a real challenge. To get around this, we would put a couple of clean pebbles in the pot and this would get the water to boil. Made me think of that when you commented about altitude and water boiling. We lived, literally, at sea level and it was never a problem getting water to boil.

Oh, thank you. I'm learning so much from you! I didn't know you should remove the jars soon after the pressure reaches zero. I have been guilty of leaving after timing was finished and turned off the heat, and returning a few hours later before removing the (warm but not bubbling) jars to finish cooling. I also am guilty of placing the jars on a dish towel to cool...

Great information thank you! I'm just getting into pressure canning, and an Australian its not a straightforward thing to get into, practically no one does it over here, we are all about water bathing and even that is a dying art. One mistake I'm quickly learning to avoid is not getting sucked into bad social media "advice" and even most cookbooks, I downloaded a canning cookbook recently and the first recipe I looked at for French onion soup suggested a 25min processing time, in comparison Ball suggests 75min. It also said it was a 3qt yield from 4lbs of onions and 3qt of broth 🤪

I had no idea that setting my jars out onto a towel was a bad idea. I have a stainless steel table I set them onto, and I’ve always used a towel because I thought the cold surface might not be wise with the hot jars. Thank you so much for adding that bit of advice, I never thought about the fact that we want the jars to cool down as quickly as possible. I’ll start using my wire cooling rack from now on! I also appreciated your demonstration of the correct amount of “jiggle” to be looking for with the weighted regulator. So many of the canning videos I’ve seen have the jiggler dancing at a positively frenetic speed, and I’ve often wondered if I need to make sure mine is wiggling along at that rate, too. Now that I know a gentle waltz is just fine, I’m greatly reassured! If I run across any newbie canners, this is the first video I’m going to recommend to them to get them off on a safe and confident start, followed up with all of the other wonderful videos on your channel. Thank you again for providing such a marvelous educational resource! ❤

I think people are inheriting or thrifting canners without manuals, leaving them with questions. I’m sure they have online manuals? I hope? Either way this is great for a beginning canner. I’m not a beginner nor a veteran, but even I benefit from these kinds of break downs.

I learned how to use a pressure cooker/canner while learning how to sterilize media to grow mushrooms and make bulk mushroom spawn, and I do have to say that I love this video about what not to do. Despite plenty of education in Chem and physics I still found myself waking up from a nap to an apartment full of smoke from the pyrolized cotton wash cloth underneath my jars because I never reduced the heat to a simmer back in the day. All that said when it comes to sterilizing rye it takes something like 90+ minutes after soaking to sterilize bacterial endospores. My understanding is that if the cooker is reaching proper temp (roughly ~12psi+ at sea level?) absolutely nothing whatsoever survives if it's been there long enough. The conditions are supposed to create literal complete sterilization, and the difference between an all American electric canner and an all American electric autoclave for medical sterilization is essentially nothing. I'm not sure how any thermophilic bacteria could survive and populate anything unless the pressure vessel just hasn't been run long enough?

Thank you I never understood why someone didn’t explain this to people that they can simply check the accuracy of their dial by watching how they’re weighted Gage behaves. Gosh, this seems to be such a sticking point for people. Obviously if your weighted gauge is jiggling way before or after your dial parameter shows the correct number, you obviously need to get a new dial. For me, the dial is just a second safety measure but definitely the weighted gauge is the most important indicator of pressure.

The weighted gauge was the best addition to my Presto. I think my local cooperative extension still will check the dial pressure gauge, but I no longer bother because the weighted gauge is foolproof. I still compare the dial gauge with my weighted gauge in case I ever were to put the wrong weight on the canner. As convenient as they seem, I won’t trust the electronic pressure canners. Electronics fail, and we don’t ever really know what the actual pressure is inside the canner. I wish they came with a dial gauge for that pressure confirmation and peace of mind.

Yes, I always use both gauges when I process with our Presto 23 QT canner and check every few minutes. We always check our electric canners every few minutes, just to make sure. Jim

@@RoseRedHomestead Jim, do the electric canners have a dial gauge for that confirmation? That would have me reconsider.

My pressure is 10 lb. But my gauge as tested, has to be at 11 lb. But trying to get exactly is impossible, it seems, so I usually can at 13 or 14 and it's okay. I can't imagine ever leaving a canner going and leave it. I'd there came an emergency, I turn the fire off and start over.

I'm the same. Where I am, it's 11 psi. It's difficult to keep the dial on 11 so if it is around 12 or 13, I don't worry about it. As long as it doesn't drop under 11.

And that pressure regulator that comes with the presto canner is an actual 15 PSI weight.

Yes, it is, but we also have one that is 10 PSI and one that is a 5 PSI for it. Jim

Pam, thank you for this video. It's a good reminder for sure. A question I have is about multiple canners. My stove will only really accommodate a single canner, and to be honest that's pushing it. It cans well and everything works fine. Sometimes, I have huge batches of canning to do and I would love to get a second canner, or be able to run my water bath canner at the same time as my pressure canner. Is there a good portable burner that I can use indoors, electric or gas of some sort, that would support the weight of a full canner and still can safely? I hate my production being limited to the capacity of a single canner.

She cans outside, check some of her older vids. Some outdoor burners can't be use on account of the btu's or something to that effect.

i just got into canning. Water bathing has been great. no issues. Everything sealed etc. Just bought a pressure canner. lol 2 batches of spaghetti sauce. Both were failures. 1. 4 of 7 quart bottles exploded. I guess you're not supposed to release the pressure when the times up. I took the weight thing off & BOOM. What a mess 2nd batch, only 7 if 18 pint jars sealed & the sauce got a very noticeable burned smell & taste. I think the 15lbs of pressure & the high temps cooked the sauce too much. I'm at 400 feet above sea level. The weight that came with it was 15lbs. I've ordered a new one so I have option. lol.. going to try number 3 this weekend. Hope the house survives :) Also I used too much water. Bottom bottles were almost under water.

Just to clarify, (new canner here) to waterbath canning you add more time per elevation, but with pressure canning you only add pressure and no time. Just added pressure. thank you.

I just had a curious thing happen to my Nesco electric pressure canner. I usually can with pints ( using 8 cups of water in it to make it work. Today I canned quarts and the canner would shut off after theE10 went down to 0 the canner sounded too full lots of bubbling going on and it never reached the # of minutes I programmed it to so finally I unplugged it. I checked out the gasket it was ok, the wall connection, ok. So is the correct amount of water to use for quarts 4 cups and the correct amount of water to use with pints is 8 cups? Can you check this out? The directions for use originally said use 4 cups of water to operate. I can’t remember why I use 8 cups of water for pints. Please reply or make a video once you figure this out, thank you. I love your friendly, well researched videos on product safety and the ones on the electric canner and your tests with that thing you put in the mason jar( for your computations)

Thanks for this very important and informative video. I'm a person who wants not only to know what to do but why its done that way. You always explain the science in a way I can understand. May I add my 2 cents worth?.... The air lock also prevents the lid from being removed when the canner is still pressurized. When UP it rests against that little square metal thing at the top edge of the pot. blocking the lid from being twisted. If you run out of water not only will the food, not be processed correctly but you can warp your canner. Ask me how I know, I did back-to-back canning projects w/o refilling the water. It boiled dry on my second go round. IT WAS THE MOST EXPENSIVE CANNING MISTAKE I'VE MADE.

Good point. I was taught to wash and dry all canner parts between batches to prevent contamination of food, blockage of the vent pipe and air vent, and damaging the canner seal with leftover substances from processing the first batch. The water is always clean and at the right amount. Having more than one canner keeps things moving along too.
