Pressure canner follow up

caterpillar guy · Aug 16, 2016

I found out this model canner is supposed to go to the previously mentioned 22 PSI then bleed off to 15. The safety valve is set for 35-40 Psi. To control lower pressure it is said to lower the temperature on the heat,to hold the pressure over the time frame for the item. This is according to the old original manuals from Cooking and Canning web site. I can forward any of the info for anybody that might want it.

Thanks, BUT, SWMBO does all that stuff. I sorta listen and bring fodder to the game.

I personally would get on eBay and buy a Mirro weight and stem. Takes all the guesswork out of gauges and has to be about 100% boom proof.

When we had a pressure cooker or canner the only one we would have is the weight model, no guage to fail and it blow up. You just had to make sure it was clean and it was not long before you could see steem raising the weight. Her last years we did no canning and they are gone now.
