Wife says time to prepare and get a pressure cooker,, what’s the best one for the money or does it matter
Thanks

I’ve got a couple presto’s, ones over 25 years old, lotsa use, have replaced the gasket 1 time, use them on my camp chef which some folks say is a no no.

Maybe Big Jim Conrad will chime in.

He’s mentioned a brand, but i can’t recall it.

Slumlord’s Nana cans a lot too. 😂😂

I would imagine that Yeti would be the way to go. (Freeze's Law - objects under pressure will cool faster at a given temperature than those not under pressure.)

All american canners are in a league of their own. I've got one and love it. No gaskets, super heavy duty and well made.

I still use my parent's presto that has to be 35 years old and it works fine too

We use ours on a glass top stove which some say is a no no. If it stops working or we have some disaster I’ll report back.

Nothing wrong with a Presto. We've been using them for many, many years.

Walmart has them for around 50 bucks.

I bought a American Canner. The middle size that is about twice the capacity of most pressure cookers.
I can process 14 quarts at one time, instead of 7. I may can 70 to 90 quarts at one session! I buy in bulk and may spend 15 to 20 hours at one canning session.
I would not buy the biggest because of size and weight.
Also get the Ball Canning book and read up before you start caning.

The presto works fine for us but the American sure seem nice and built like a tank.

Buy that one.

We canned some last year in an Instant Pot. I am think about getting an All America but have not dropped the coins yet.

A 23 quart Presto will do anything you want to do and will be sold in your estate sale.

Cooker or canner?

Stove top or electric?

For cooking,
We have the bigger Instapot that does souis vide.
We love it.

I scored an All American canner for a great price. Can't imagine needing anything else nor do I see myself switching anytime.

I have too, I like to live dangerously 🤦‍♂️😅

Yep 👊🏻

Presto makes a good canner.
