All American 41-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker Canner
Only the ALL AMERICAN Pressure Canner features an exclusive, precision machined “metal-to-metal” sealing system. These Pressure Canners for canning feature positive action clamping locks that align the cover to the base, forming a steam-tight seal. Since the seal does not use a gasket, the cover can be easily opened and closed. The ALL AMERICAN Canner makes it easy to can fish, meat, vegetables and fruits – it’s the only method the USDA recommends for low-acid foods. All canning pressure cooker models feature a precision machined regulator weight for accurate pressure control and an easy-to-read, 8.5 x 5.5″ Instruction and Recipe Book. Suitable for gas, electric, or flat top stoves. The high heat generated by a pressure cooker can kill more bacteria than a regular hot water bath, making this pressure cooker the ideal tool for canning vegetables and non-acid fruit. The metal-to-metal seal permits venting under unusual pressure conditions, making the seal safer than conventional rubber or composition gasket cookers. Crafted of the finest hand-cast aluminum, this durable cooker/canner features a stay-cool Bakelite top handle, geared steam gauge, automatic overpressure release and pressure regulator weight with settings of 5 PSI, 10 PSI and 15 PSI. The attractive satin finish is smooth and easy to clean. Double thick edges provide added protection at the points of heaviest wear.

Would have to say this is a wonderful kitchen accessory Would have to say this is a wonderful kitchen accessory. Makes things easier starting out with a bigger unit. I like to cook and storage is one of the things I lack. So canning with confidence has been a relief with some light reading and watching some YouTube videos.The learning curve has been easy. Main thing is to allow it to cool before removing the weight off the peacock “Zero pressure “. Then letting it cool some more before opening the lid. Retains heat well. The side wall…
I love, love, love it! I have a Mirro pressure canner, and it’s worked very well for me. However, this one, with the gauge as backup, is so much easier! It’s also quieter and faster! I’m really surprised that it’s making this much difference. The only drawback is how heavy it is. It’s 17 pounds empty! I’m old with a bum elbow. It can be difficult to move, store, and even set on the stove. But the other benefits fully outweigh the weight (pun intended!).I do small-batch canning (mostly half-pint jars), and…
