if you have an electric coil or gas stove you're good. if it's a glass top it won't work.
A glass top stove works just fine. We've done a bunch of them on one.
I've never owned one but everywhere I've read and heard they don't work because of the way the elements heat and they don't stay consistent. good to know they can work. I stand corrected.
Having had 2 glass stop stoves, I hate the things but they do work just fine with a pressure canner. They also work fine with a water bath canner for canning other stuff.
Recently researched this.
Some pressure canners, Mirro or Presto, do not have a flat bottom and do not heat evenly on glass cook tops. Additionally, some stove manufacturers do not recommend it because of particular types of construction. They say it is not good to have a pot that is oversized for the burner and can cause overheating damage to stove top areas not meant to be heated.
About to try it on ours, ok per the manual and it's a flat-bottom All American. I like the glass cook top.
Appreciate the thread. Craving canned deer.
