Description

Pressure canning is the only method recommended safe by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for low-acid foods. Doubles as a boiling water canner for preserving fruits, jams, jellies, pickles and salsa in pint and half pint jars. Also handy as a large capacity pressure cooker. Constructed of warp-resistant, heavy-gauge aluminum for fast, even heating. Works on regular and smooth-top ranges. Deluxe pressure dial gauge registers the complete range of processing pressures. This precise measurement is especially important at higher altitudes. Air vent/cover lock allows pressure to build up only when the cover is closed properly and prevents the cover from opening until pressure is safely reduced. 23-Quart liquid capacity (21.8 liters). The USDA recommends pressure canning as the only safe method for low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats, and poultry. The Presto 23-quart pressure canner is more than adequate for any home canning needs. It's a professional-quality tool, made of heavy-duty aluminum, with stay-cool handles and a strong-lock steel lid. An accompanying rack fits down into the pot to keep jars up off the bottom, so that liquid can circulate underneath. And it can do double duty as a large pressure cooker. It's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor. The sturdy lid locks down during canning or cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. The pressure dial gauge gives an accurate reading so that pressure can be kept constant during canning. This pressure canner is also a cooker that's useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 50 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts--even sweets like English Plum Pudding or Brown Bread! Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork, or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture. Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this aluminum pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The lid of the Presto 23-quart pressure canner is not immersible. In addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The dial gauge is delicate; detailed care instructions are found in the accompanying booklet. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures 14 inches in diameter (17 inches including handles) and 15-1/2 inches tall (including lid). Presto guarantees this pressure cooker with an extended 12-year warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

  • Presto pressure canner
Style Name: 23 qt Canner
This product is a great product for the value. It hold plenty of jars and you are able to stack them if you have a try to place between the layers. The gauge is a little off but I use a rocker weight and it is only about 2 lbs off. The pot is light and durable. The lid turns with ease. Works on all types of stoves including glass top stoves. The only down fall is the port is tall making hard to fit in the sink with ease. But the height allows for additional jars per batch. I have canned tons of food with this product with no issues. This product is great for beginners ... show more

  • Presto 01781 Pressure Canner and Cooker: A Multifunctional Marvel for Mushroom
Style Name: 23 qt Canner
The Presto 01781 Pressure Canner and Cooker, with its 23 qt capacity and sleek silver design, has been a game-changer in my mushroom growing endeavors, and I am more than happy to share my positive experience with this versatile tool. From the get-go, what impressed me was its sheer size and simplicity of use. The canner is spacious enough to accommodate all my sterilization needs without feeling cumbersome. Its construction is robust, promising longevity and resilience, especially important when dealing with the rigors of regular sterilization processes required in mushroom cultivation. The ease of assembly and operation is noteworthy. Setting it up was straightforward, thanks to the clear instructions provided, making it ready for use almost immediately. The inclusion of a 15lb pressure regulator, contrary to my initial belief, negated the need for any additional purchases, streamlining the process further. Its performance in sterilizing mushroom substrate jars has been exceptional. The canner efficiently reaches and maintains the necessary 15psi, crucial for eliminating any contaminants, thereby ensuring a sterile environment for mushroom spawn. The safety features, including a lock that engages with pressure buildup and a vent pipe acting as a primary pressure relief valve, instill confidence in its use, mitigating any concerns of potential mishaps. The capacity to hold and effectively sterilize multiple jars in a single session has significantly optimized my workflow. Not only does it save time, but it also allows for larger batches to be prepared, enhancing productivity. The durability of the canner, evidenced by the heavy-duty seal and quality materials, ensures that it can withstand the demands of frequent use. While primarily purchased for mushroom growing, its versatility extends beyond, capable of canning a wide array of foods, which speaks to its multifunctionality. The only caveat noted was the gauge and weight discrepancy during operation, which required some attention to ensure accurate pressure management. However, this was a minor issue in the grand scheme, easily overshadowed by its overall stellar performance. In conclusion, the Presto 01781 Pressure Canner and Cooker has been an invaluable addition to my mushroom cultivation toolkit. Its robust construction, ease of use, and exceptional functionality make it a highly recommended purchase for anyone in the field. Whether you're a seasoned mycologist or a hobbyist looking to dive into mushroom cultivation, this pressure canner and cooker is a wise investment that promises reliability, efficiency, and safety. ... show more
