Warped pressure canner - Homesteading Forum
2013年6月22日 · Thank you. I had that happen once when DH set my empty/dry pressure canner on a stove eye that he didn't realize was on and it warped. He took a length of a 2 by 4 and layed it across the bottem and hammered it back into place. Personally, I wouldn't use it. The integrity of the pans shape has been compromised.
Mirro pressure canner jiggler - Homesteading Forum
2010年9月2日 · Mirro weights are set to rattle 3-4 times per minute when at 0.5 lbs. above pressure. EX: rattle at 10.5 when using the 10 lb. weight. They will rattle side to side - sort of a clackety-clackety sound - continuously when the pressure is above 11.5 lbs. Steam will be released at the same time. If your weight is not moving at all then either 1 ...
Lids blew off jars - Homesteading Forum
2015年11月13日 · While still scalding hot, but under 212 F, firmly tighten the rings onto the jars. As the contents cools, it contracts, pulling the lid on tighter, sealing the jar. If the temperature stays above 212 F, and the pressure goes out of the canner, the contents will begin to boil, even if the heat is off. Pokletu.

Canner won’t vent a steady stream | Homesteading Forum
2020年6月12日 · No. The vent won’t steam. It just blows air. I need it to steam steady for 10 min before I put the weight on. This is the second new canner I have had in 3 months that won’t vent steam. I’m thinking my stove isn’t getting hot enough. …
forgot to vent my pressure canner before canning
2015年9月16日 · As I understand it, the purpose of venting before going to pressure is to get the air out of the canner, and replaced with steam. Not getting the air out affects the heat attained in the canner. You're okay with tomatoes, but with non-acidic foods you're not bringing the food to the temperature to kill any botulism spores. Subtlety Is Overrated.
Why would a pressure canner warp | Homesteading Forum
2013年10月30日 · I have 5 large canners of just about any imaginable brand and have never had one warp. The only things that I can think of that might make one warp are. 1.) Heating it while empty on a very hot stove. 2.) Too much pressure - the overpressure plug not popping when it should have. 3.) Having it run dry while canning.
Restoring an Antique Pressure Cooker - Homesteading Forum
2011年6月2日 · 40397 posts · Joined 2005. #12 · Feb 19, 2022. @keystone7911, first make sure the vent on your cooker is cleaned out. If the vent is plugged it will keep the cooker from opening. I would try running hot water over the lid until it is warm then try turning the lid. Make sure you are turning it the right way.
Dark spots after pressure canning | Homesteading Forum

Immediately upon removing my pint jars from my pressure canner I noticed there were some dark spots/stains on the outside of the jars, I could see some spots on the underside of the lids, and when I wiped the edges of the lids/jars off with a 50/50 vinegar/water spray a LOT of black came off of the ...
Pressure Canning lids popping question - Homesteading Forum
2011年7月14日 · You do need to wait another 10 min. after the pressure is zero. Remove the weight, then set the timer an additional 10 min. Then, open the lid and remove the jars. That helps with the siphoning issue you had. It is fine if the lids seal, but they should not pop and then unpop and pop again. Just seal once and that is it.
