Before you start a recipe or a set of directions, look at the pressure that it requires. Make adjustments in your head based on your altitude because “… altitude increases ….[the] pressure required for pressure canning.” Andress, Elizabeth. History, Science and Current Practice in Home Food Preservation. Webinar. 27 February 2013. Accessed January ...
“Always double and triple check your processing times, making sure you’re using the right time for your packing method and jar size.” Pemmons, Skip (2014-09-14).

For the modern Presto 16 and 23 US quart canners, it is 3 litres (US quarts.) Other makes and models and sizes will be different. And don’t forget to add a few tablespoons or squirts of vinegar to the water so that your jars and canner stay sparkling clean! To be clear: in pressure canning, you don’t immerse jars fully in water, as you do with boil...
Put the jars in upright. (Don’t be tempted to try to cheat and lay the jars on their sides — if you do, instead of expelling air, the jars may expel contents!);Don’t have the water boiling when you put the jars in;For hot pack, have your water simmering already (around 80 C / 180 F if you have a candy thermometer);For raw pack, have the water starting to steam but not simmering, around 60 C (140 F). This lower temperature helps avoid heat shock to the somewhat colder jars.Have a good vent; you deserve it! 1. Lock and load — put the lid on and lock it down; 2. If you have a modern canner, leave the weighted gauge off at first. In an older canner, have the petcock open; 3. Crank up the heat and get the water boiling in the canner; 4. Be patient, let it keep boiling and wait about 10 to 20 minutes depending on your can...
With the venting done, close the vent pipe or pet cock to start trapping the steam inside and start building pressure towards the required amount for your altitude. You might be tempted to crank the stove burner up to its very max in order to help the canner get up to pressure faster. Some people argue, though, advise slow and steady. They feel tha...
Once the canner hits pressure, lower the heat down to the bare minimum required to maintain pressure without going under the required pressure. “Regulate the heat under the canner to maintain a steady pressure at or slightly above the correct gauge pressure.” Marilyn A. Swanson. Using and caring for your pressure canner. Pacific Northwest Extension...
You don’t want run at underpressure but nor do you want overpressure, and nor do you want up and down pressure, even if the up and down stays above the safety range for your product. “Quick and large pressure variations during processing may cause jars to lose liquid.” Marilyn A. Swanson. Using and caring for your pressure canner. Pacific Northwest...
At end of the required processing time, turn off the heat. If you are able to lift the canner just enough to move it off the still-hot burner without scratching the stove or dislocating your shoulder or throwing your back out, you may do so. See debate about this at the end of this page. But otherwise, that’s all you can do as far as reducing heat ...
You must let the pressure drop naturally, with the weights and gauges still fully closed, for all kinds of reasons. This natural pressure drop and cooling is vital for safety. During this cool down time, sterilization that the USDA is counting on is still happening. In a pressure canner, the heat-up and cool-down time is counted as heat penetration...

Aug 29, 2024 · Water bath canning is a method of food preservation where you fill canning jars with your chosen food, submerge them in boiling water for a specific time. The jars will seal during the process. This ensures that your food is safe for storage on the shelf and ready to be enjoyed whenever you desire. Jump to Recipe Print Recipe.

Dec 8, 2023 · How does a pressure canner work? Pressure canning is unique from water bath canning in that it creates a high-pressure environment inside the canner which results in a higher boiling point of water. Under normal conditions, water boils at 212 degrees F. Add some pressure and the temps can reach as high as 250 degrees F!
Jan 22, 2021 · Pre-Heating the Pressure Canner. Unlike water bath canning, a pressure canner is not filled completely with water. The chamber inside will fill with pressurized steam, and you need enough water to both fill the chamber steam and prevent the canner from running dry during the process time.
