Presto 16-Quart Aluminum Pressure Canner and Cooker

Description:

The Presto 16-Quart Pressure Canner is expertly crafted for easy and reliable home pressure canning. This versatile canner also functions as a boiling water canner, perfect for preserving fruits, jams, jellies, pickles, and salsa in half-pint and pint jars. Compatible with gas, electric, and smooth-top ranges, it features a deluxe pressure dial gauge that ensures precise processing pressures, crucial for high-altitude areas. The special air vent/cover lock allows pressure to build only when the cover is securely closed and prevents opening until pressure is safely reduced, also providing a visual indication of the pressure inside. Additionally, it serves as a large-capacity pressure cooker for preparing a variety of dishes, including meats, poultry, soups, and desserts. Made from durable heavy-gauge aluminum, it ensures long-lasting performance with fast, even heating. The canner includes a cooking/canning rack and an 80-page instruction/recipe book for canning and pressure cooking. It holds up to 12 half-pints, 10 pints, or 7 quarts of regular mason jars (only half-pints and pints for boiling water processing).
