My extension service said if I needed a weight over 10 pounds I had to go up to the next 5 pound weight. I think my weight for my elevation is 12 pounds.

@SuttonsDaze 4 жыл бұрын

Then yes, 15lbs would be what you need

@MFaith777 3 жыл бұрын

So if you need to do 11lbs of pressure, you just do 15 instead with these weights? Doesn’t matter going higher?

Both regulators shown in this video are weighted regulators. The first is a non-adjustable, fixed, 15 pound regulator. The second is an adjustable regulator which can be used to maintain 5, 10, or 15 pounds of steam pressure.

@lindafoster8182 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for the info. Someone tried to convince me that because I got a 15 pound juggler I need to use only that with my pressure canner. I kept saying doesn’t make sense if you move to a different area you don’t buy a different canner you buy a different Jiggler.

@Susan.I Жыл бұрын

I live very close to the ocean and I thought the pressure gage that came with the Presto would be fine. But in checking over recipes I found that the pressure needs to change. So I will buy the adjustable gage!

I've been having the worst time with pressure and gauge. I live over 2000 above sea level. Canned some beef broth yesterday and was to be done at 12 lb for 25 minutes. Glass stove with digital buttons so no in between temps, along with the 15 lb presto gauge. Husband sat there 25 minutes pushing buttons up and down to try to keep it at 12 or slightly over. All went well except 1 jar lid popped right off in during the depressurizing period. We refilled the jar to 1 in head space and tried again with new lid and ring.... popped off again! Finally replaced lid, ring and jar and he decided to let the pressure go to 15 lbs (that gauge does rock slightly at this stage). We finally were successful.

@rolandpinette9946 Жыл бұрын

@@CCisRight Congratulations on your perseverance. I can see where a digital glass top can add a layer of complexity. You managed it well. I've never had a lid blow off, so I can't offer a solution. However, I have had great success by turning the stove off at completion and not even moving it off the burner. It may take a bit longer for the pressure to come down, but the less those jars are disturbed, the better my results.

My mom had a pressure cooker when I was young, and it had this same "wobbler" only it was one piece and didn't come apart. She would put it on from the beginning and once it started moving was when she knew it was cooking. Hers those wobbled so much that would actually spin. Thank you SO SO much for teaching me yet another thing so that I can get going with this. {{{hugs}}}

This year I waterbath canned 18 quarts of green beans, and every single one has expired and did not sealed properly… I’ve always been very intimidated by using a pressure canner because my ex mother-in-law put the fear of God in me over pressure canners. My husband went out and bought me a pressure canner this week and I’ve been reading everything I can to try to understand exactly how to work one and all I had to do was watch your video.

Although my mother never canned food in jars she was constantly using the pressure cooker to cook our dinners! And your demonstration completely opened up long forgotten knowledge!!!!!! 👍 ❤ I hadn't heard that sound since I was a kid. So, so familiar sound! My mom would even say I'm going to leave the room for a couple minutes but if you hear that noise get real loud you tell me!!!! Only now I feel comfortable to use my canner!

This video is exactly what every new canner needs!! I used mine for the first time yesterday. It was a disaster. My heart was racing the entire time ...what if it blows up...what if it cracks my glass top stove....what if the jars break....my pressure should have been at 11...I did get it to stay there but the regulator wouldn't jiggle....I was peeking from the side of the refrigerator so I didn't get hurt from the explosion 💥...then my husband cranks it up to 15 when it finally jiggled and I timed my quart jars for 70 minutes. Nothing blew up! The timer went off and I turned off my stove and REMOVED THE REGULATOR!! I knew immediately that I made a mistake. We stood there like someone watching a ship sink. After it was completely cooled down, my husband removed the traumatized jars. Two didn't seal but the other 5 seemed fine. Once cool, I washed them clean, apologizing for my lack of good sense. So, hopefully the 5 survivors will continue to thrive. I didn't see anywhere in the manual that the regulator doesn't rock unless it is at 15 so if you are at 11 it is not going to move. I had to find out on KZfaq. Thankfully this video will save others from a total disaster.

This video is really useful for me, thanks! I’m in Scotland so we can’t get the dial gauge tested every year like you’re supposed to since canning is not a thing here! I bought the jiggler but I was worried coz my hob (I have induction hob and canner) only goes in increments of 20 and at 100c it stopped jiggling but at 120c I wasn’t sure if it was jiggling too much. I know you’re not supposed to look at the gauge when using the jiggler but at 120c it was sitting at around 11lb of pressure which I can see is the same on your gauge and it seems to be rocking about the same as well 😄 Thanks Lisa 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇺🇸

Me too! Carrots and after clicking on a few other videos, I settled on this one! I finally found (err stumbled on) a pressure. Anner while in the canning isle at walmart. By accident! I had already been wanting a presto. But they were sold out everywhere. Was showing my daughter how empty the shelves were, how all the jars were sold out. Decided to turn around go back and look again, just in awe even though I didn't know why... and there it was. That bpx sitting all by itself at the bottom shelf as if they had just gotten a shipment of them but sold out all but that last one. I snatched that up lol . Had a bag of carrots waiting for me in the fridge Was almost enough. I used one jar for purified water, because I wasn't sure if it was OK to do less than 10 jars, per what the book said mine can fit ,for pints. So now I will have 1 jar of purified ,canned water,plus my 9 jars of organic carrots. I was a bit confused on the timing for everything. So decided to let the canner tell me. Concentrated on making sure the weight matched the jiggle that yours had. Even added 10 more minutes once or twice, just to be sure (for the full 25mkn plus extra 10 or 20). If they turn out too soft, oh well. Food is food and I don't wsnt to waste it. I could put it in some soup, if I later discover its too soft. I have 5 min left now. Im going to turn off the burner and go to bed,letting it cool overnight. Be ause Im exaughsted as its 137am and I over did myself today on everything I had to do ..and am soon tired don't wanna wait any longer 😴. I know it will be ok in the canner till morning,after everything gets turned off.

@g-whiz286 2 жыл бұрын

What we are trying to do here is kill pathogens that can hurt us. The toughest one being botulism. Botulism dies very quickly at 250°F. It dies slowly if it is exposed to 240°F. That being said, how we get there depends on many factors, altitude being a major one because our pressure canners are based on relative pressure (where it is) rather than absolute pressure (sea level or 14.7 psi). The reason we use 11 psi at sea level for 75 minutes (for pints) is because 14.7 psi + 11 psi forces water to boil at 241.8°F and 75 minutes if enough time to get that temperature into the center of the pint jar where botulism will die a slow death. At a higher altitude, such as Denver, the base pressure is only 12.2 psi, or 2.5 psi less than sea level. 12.2 psi + 11 psi forces water to boil at only @235°F which would take a very long time (like in several hours) to kill botulism. However, 12.2 psi + 15 psi forces water to boil at @245°F which is plenty hot as long as you observe the soak time to get the little critters in the center of the jar.

I'm brand new to this. I used my 16 qt. Presto pressure canner for the first time and was not able to build pressure with the 10 lb. weight on it. Steam just kept escaping and I was afraid of burning it out. I finally figured out after turning it off that the 10 lb. weight had to really be pushed down with some muscle. It had just been perched on top. I redid it and it worked. We'll see tomorrow if the lids sealed. It's a steep learning curve for me, but I'm very grateful there was an extension canning hotline!

The gauge will still read accurate, if it’s 10 psi or 15psi the only thing this helps with is not having to constantly adjust your flame source to be right where you need it to be. You would still take the same precautions as you normally would. Start with a high flame than lower as you reach your desired psi it’ll wiggle out more steam than the original one and keep it there. Combine this fancy tool with a wifi camera and you can check it without having to leave your couch 👍🏽🥃

When I opened KZfaq this morning, this video was a recommended video. I’m SO glad I watched because it was extremely helpful. I pressure canned for the very first time yesterday with a brand new Presto canner and the first type of regulator. I couldn’t figure out why it didn’t move even though I was at the right pressure for my altitude. You answered so many questions I had and I understand why the weighted regulator would be helpful. Thank you, Leisa!

Hi Angie, me too! I’m sitting here with a canner full of food and flipping out a little bit because my rocker isn’t rocking. When troubleshooting I saw recommendations of taking it in (in where???) to be calibrated. I’m like, “but I have a canner full of food! I can’t stop what I’m doing to do that!!” This is only my second time canning and I am very un confident in what I’m doing. The videos on KZfaq make it look so stinking easy. Anyway, thankful to run across this video and realize that this rocker is just going to sit there doing nothing. (My first canning it did rock so I’m not sure what the dealio is).

So after coming across Canuary, I finally committed myself to digging out grandma’s 1970’s presto canner. Ordering parts had been a little confusing, like weighted gauge. I did pick the 3 part weighted regulator thankfully. Thank you so much for putting this out. Almost all of the Canuary videos jump pass the actual canner going so I couldn’t see, hear the goal and what weight they used. Your awesome!

Thank you so much! I have been canning at too high apparently. Thank goodness I haven't run out of water. Was always nervous to turn it down too low. I'll be practicing when I do the baked beans tomorrow

The dial pressure gauge is still accurate.... when your weighted regulator was going crazy.... your dial guage was showing around 13-14... that's exactly what the pressure was inside the canner. Just because you have a weighted regulator sitting on the vent... doesn't make the dial guage void... lol

I really appreciate this video. I bought the weighted regulator last summer but didn't try it out. It is very difficult for me get my guage tested so I was worried about it. That's why I wanted this regulator. Now no more worrying about having the gauge tested and thanks to you I now have a visual on exactly how it should rock.

I know, right? I was raised with my mom constantly cooking our food in a pressure cooker. She'd tell me about the sound and if it got loud to call her into the room! Same scientific method. The good thing is I remember those sounds! This video jogged my memory. I just ordered my weighted gauge as well.

I’m so new to canning. My gas stove runs hot and I could not get my canner to a “sweet spot” to maintain pressure without exceeding it without turning the burner off and on! It was horribly difficult to maintain proper pressure. Got a weighted guage (also a heat diffuser) and found the sweet spot on the stove dial at medium low! Thanks so much!

VERY Helpful. i don't have the dial on mine and have not been sure how the rocking is supposed to look. Have only canned a couple of things so thank you so much for doing this. I just bought a new Presto with a dial yesterday because I wanted to can chicken for the first time and was too scared to use my Presto without the dial. But now I can use both!!!

For those of us who are over 2000 ft. above sea level, you most likely have absolutely no need to get the 3 piece jiggler. The weight that came with the canner (the 1st one shown) is a 15 lb. weight that DOES jiggle at that pressure. Now the problem come at the point where we must decide between convenience and texture. Some things such as vegetables are much better in flavor and texture when canned at the recommended pressure.... 12lbs or whatever is recommended for our altitude. Although there's no issue using 15 lbs safety-wise, they may be mushier and more discolored. This would probably be the time when watching the dial gauge and regulating the stove would come in handy for us higher elevated canners.
