When you process the summer's harvest you will want to do it easily with your family's safety and nutritional needs in mind. Canning allows the preservation of vitamins and minerals. Pressure canning does the same thing with one important difference; since the steam produced by the water is hotter than the water itself, you are assured that bacteria are eliminated. And, with this 23 quart Presto Pressure canner you can preserve even more of Summer's pleasures.

Pressure canning is the only method recommended safe by the U.S.D.A. for low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats and fish. So preserve your garden's bounty the safe way with a pressure canner!

The easy-to-read gauge automatically registers a complete range of processing temperatures. Air vent/cover lock allows pressure to build up only when the cover is closed properly and prevents the cover from opening until pressure is safely reduced.

Presto Pressure Canners can also double as water bath canners for preserving fruits, jams, jellies, pickles, and salsas. Constructed of extra-strong, warp-resistant aluminum and suitable for use on regular and smooth-top ranges. Includes cooking/canning rack and a complete instruction and recipe book.
