[@johnpossum556]

Luckily things were SAE back then. I discovered my hand-me-down great aunt's PC orifice worked with 1/2" National Pipe Thread on the day I converted it into a still! In fact I didn't need anything else. I found all the parts in my basement junk to convert it. I put everything in my freezer into a cooler and distilled some of my old wine into spirits using the freezer as my source of cooling (also eliminated the danger of explosion in the process!) the vapors back into white lightning AKA high proof ethanol. Best of all the whole thing converted back into innocent parts in seconds should any authorities come knocking at the door.😅

[@johnchristopherrobert1839]

[@senorjp21]

Surprising - usually the tighter the hole, the sooner you blow off. BTW, you can pour cold water on a pressure cooker and the pressure drops fast.

[@oldtimerlee8820]

Does not apply when using a pot as a pressure canner to preserve foods. Natural cool down (pressure drop) time is included in the processing guidelines for safe food canning. Plus, risk of food being pushed from the jars when pressure outside of the jars decreases too quickly.

[@rosebarnes9625]

@@oldtimerlee8820 he didn't say that to be used as a standard process, it was more of an emergency procedure to prevent a possible explosion, but thanks for pointing out not to use the food if you use the emergency pressure reducing procedure! 😁

[@dodgydruid]

My old mum had this ancient pressure cooker which had a cantilever weight on it which you could hang different weights for different pressures, had no safety either so had to be kept an eye on and it had not a dial gauge but this weird tube that rose like an old tyre pressure gauge with the bit o' metal that stuck out to show your pressure.

[@HomeDistiller]

i wonder if it had a leather handle on the 2 studs on the lid?

[@mikeologyfarms]

As a mushroom farmer I appreciate this video so much as I'm looking into buying a vintage national 18 qt to restore and came across this in my research

[@ElementalMaker]

Glad you found it useful. It's a great upgrade for both simplified useage and safety

[@kraftzion]

Very nice! I have revamped several old pressure cookers although none probably as old as that one. That mirro-matic jiggler system is my favorite too. I add gauges to all my smaller cookers which don't usually have them. Mainly so I can set it just below "jiggle" and I don't have to listen to it. I have never seen a automatic reset blow off safety on one like you have. The ones I revamp all have a small rubber plug blow off. It can be replaced with a small pop up valve that is very useful and retains the blow off safety feature.

[@kellyname5733]

I don't have a pressure cooker so I haven't tried it yet. But I want to try to replicate bogwood using various woods bathed in red wine (or something else with lots of tannins) and heat and pressure, and see how long it takes to inject dark color into the wood at various temps and pressures. I don't even know if it's plausible, but it's an experiment.

[@tullgutten]

That is so simple yet so effective, that's awesome! Btw when working on cars here in Norway where the roads are salted many months a year. Getting a steel bolt out of aluminium is 10 times more difficult than in steel when it is corroded since Aluminium expands very much and doesn't loosen up as easy as rust when heated. So it is very often bolts just break and must be redrilled, and suspension bushings of aluminium corroding around bolts must be cut out and replace the whole thing to take wheel alignment. I HATE mixed metals. Always cost me much more time and customers money Works if it's lubed before assembly but no car manufacturer does that....

[@TechGorilla1987]

I knew you had to have a pressure cooker. It's the mycologists best friend. I used to boil popcorn (standard popping corn) until it split. I would load in to mason jars with a needle-sized hole in the lid covered with 3M medical tape. I autoclaved those and they're FANTASTIC medium for inoculation. I ran a O3 generator in an old, clean bathroom, then inoculated jars through the 3M tape. Never lost one jar to anything more colorful than white mycelium.

Yes the technology about the pressure system is indeed fascinating, but had to rewind a couple times as I kept getting all thrown off wondering about the grenades. Lol Keep being you man!

[@oddjobbobb]

Cut a 3/4”-1” thick plate of lexan. Add a port for a vacuum gauge and for connection to a vacuum pump and you have an excellent vacuum chamber. Oh, I forgot your seal is the tapered thing between pot and lid. You need to add a seal. Route a slot in the lexan to accept an o-ring. A skiff of olive oily on the rim of the pot and then you got a serviceable vacuum chamber.

[@Aaron48219]

You tossed that pressure cooker up on the bench and my first thought was, "oh shit, he's finally lost it ...BATFE will be shooting his dog by dawn."

[@TheDenisedrake]

[@dodgydruid]

The quality of HTR's wrenches is very high, I use mine often preferring it over my genuine King Dick's as it is bloody useful as an impromptu vice, thing to hold stuff for spraying or setting fire to, superb as a heat wick on lectronic boards and three years now of serious abuse has failed utterly to mark it, bend it or dent it even. Oh and I use mine as a socket key and I can whap it hard with a 4 pound club to shock stuff into moving and it just shrugs it off.

[@g45sp4]

Where did you buy those hand grenades?

[@temptorsent]

Your unit isn't supposed to be a pressure cooker I believe, rather it's an autoclave. The autoclave is supposed to run on a small amount of water and not boil dry, thus is designed not to vent once the set temp is reached. By replacing the manual vent with the weight, you also will be much more limited on your maximum working temperatures. You're blowing off before the designed minimum of 17psi for dry steam autoclaving (270F), let alone the maximum 22psi. Take a look at the manual for the All American 1941 for details.

[@ElementalMaker]

Back in those days I believe the only difference between the pressure cookers and autoclaves was the pressure gauge they used and the emergency release spring. This one was set up for pressure canning at 5, 10, or 15 psi. But yes the old vent method certainly conserved water much more effeciently. But the trade off in ease of use and safety is worth it imo. I never use more than 15psi anyways

[@oddjobbobb]

Pressure cookers and pressure canners have one thing in common: they allow the inner chamber to reach higher temperatures than boiled water. The primary difference is you don’t generally use a pressure cooker for as long as you do a pressure canner (unless, maybe your pressure cooking a 10 lb roast). Also, you don’t release the pressure on a canner the way you do on a cooker. A pressure canner can be used as an autoclave, as a steam autoclave is simply a large pressure canner (the real difference is the autoclave has steam pumped in under pressure, it doesn’t achieve the steam pressure by boiling water in the chamber). Again, once the pressure is reached (and that pressure’s attendant temperature) it must be held to ensure complete sterilization into the center of the “packs” in which the surgical instruments and what not are kept. There should be a couple inches of temperate sensitive tape to prove to the person who uses the pack that sterility was achieved. Letting the canner run dry will just result in the contents of the canner burning. (A dry canner (or cooker) won’t explode. You need moisture in the chamber/pot to expand creating pressure.) If the weight stops jiggling even if your gauge shows the pressure of the weight, then your canner is dry and better short off the heat or you will(at best) burn the contents and at worst damage the pot.

[@jotapezanelatto]

[@kellyname5733]

All American strongly suggest to use teflon tape prior to screwing in the parts. The black knobs are??? Maybe handles kinda sorta??

[@ElementalMaker]

Teflon would certainly work too. I just used the loctite which will seal the threads all the same. Yes the black knobs are handles to lift he hot lid.

[@EmancipatedSquirrel]

Where do you get your pineapples in winter?

[@47retta]

What are the other 2 things sticking up on the lid?

[@ElementalMaker]

One is a pressure gauge, and the other is an emergency pressure release just in case the pot is overpressurized

[@ArtturiSalmela]

I have a pressure pot for which I don't have the weight. I've already calculated about how heavy it should be to get the pressure I want, but seeing this thing may revamp my design. It did not occur to me that changing the hole size is an option. In hindsight, it is obvious. I could of course make more weights, but if I could encorporate the same thing into one, it would be better; fewer things to keep track of.

[@wanjockey]

ever heard of Teflon food safe tape?

[@johnpossum556]

Teflon tape would be better for that since it will seal and you'll never have trouble removing it due to corrosion should you need to. Ask for mil spec, it's much thicker and much much easier to work with. I keep a box of leather scraps below my vise for pieces like this. put the leather around it and clamp onto it with a vise grips and you won't damage or even mar your old parts. I'm not sure if what you did is really worth the work. If you have an Aldi's nearby I bought a brand new self contained AC plug in PC for only $45 and I love it. (I previously had my great aunt's old stovetop one like yours until the seal went) I use it at least weekly. I mention it because if you want a solution you can set and forget it really this is *the walk away solution.* It's digital, basically a instapot as all the buttons on it are the same as the instapot. I made scalloped potatoes and pork chops in it last night. The meat just melts in your mouth. I made a whole frozen turkey and whole skin on potatoes today in it. It has been my favorite kitchen tool for months now. It does max out at 99 minutes but you can stop that any time and restart it so you shouldn't have any trouble doing the mushroom stuff. You really can't beat the Aldi's deals.... I am waiting on them having the li ion drills on sale again. I bought one in 2015 and its been good but I wore out the bearings putting an oversized drain cleaner on it.

[@vincentwu2848]

Damn, you're so lucky your pot came with a needle valve. My Presto has a rocker and I want to change it to a needle valve!

[@ElementalMaker]

I kept the needle valve in case I ever want to change it back, but the rocker is just so nice and simple, plus way safer. In curious, why don't you like the rocker?

[@vincentwu2848]

@@ElementalMaker The rocker is definitely safer but noisier. I also *suspect* the needle valve is more efficient on both water and energy use because it's constantly bleeding off a steady amount of pressure unlike the rocker which is oscillating between holding pressure and letting off bursts. I only load sealed jars into my pressure cooker so the additional safety of the rocker isn't necessary.

[@piecetoyou8285]

Great job , Theire is nothing better when you take a chance buying a threaded item and it fits . In general pressure cookers are not much different than any other pressure unit, as long as you follow the guide lines / clean the release valves and replace if suspect issue, check pot for cracks / replace gaskets if going hard or shrunken if pot has any , they can last a life time , if looked after, We don`t have canning over here ,I think maybe one company but they don`t look as cool as over sea`s ones, you guys are massive on it I here, They are to exspensive to ship to England its a shame,
