,All-American 30-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner,Presto 8-Quart Aluminum Pressure Cooker,Presto 6-Quart Aluminum Pressure Cooker,Presto 1755 16-Quart Aluminum Pressure Cooker/Cann,Prestige Popular Aluminium Pressure Cooker, 4 Lite Review This heavy-duty pressure cooker’s large capacity is probably best utilized for canning (though it would also be great for a number of cooking tasks). A pressure cooker is generally recommended when canning vegetables and nonacid fruit, since the high heat that can be generated will kill more bacteria than a regular hot water bath. Made from cast aluminum, with sturdy screws to seal the lid to the pot, this pressure cooker requires no rubber or plastic gaskets or rings. Its 21-1/2-quart capacity holds 19 pint jars or 7 quart jars. A three-setting pressure regulator valve is included, and the pressure gauge gives a clear reading. Made in Wisconsin, this is an American classic. –Julija Gelazis

I bought this HUGE pressure cooker to serve as a pressure canner for salsa and tomatoes. This is a nice piece of equipment, I say equipment because of the size and weight of the thing. It barely fits on my stove! The great news is that I can pressure can 16 wide mouth pint jars at once. If you are new at this as my wife and I are, spend some time researching the techniques and recipes- the book that comes with the cooker has some recipes and timing charts from the USDA and they occasionally are in conflict with one another ( since this technology has evolved over time). A great kitchen tool at a super price.
