All-American 25-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner

Product Description





Product Description

The high heat generated by a pressure cooker can kill more bacteria than a regular hot water bath, making this pressure cooker the ideal tool for canning vegetables and non-acid fruit. All-American's 25-quart pressure cooker/canner holds up to 19 pint jars or seven quart jars. Only All-American pressure cookers/canners feature an exclusive, precision-machined "metal-to-metal" sealing system. Clamping locks align the cover to the base, forming a steam-tight seal. This means no gaskets to crack, burn, replace, and clean. At the same time, the metal-to-metal seal permits venting under unusual pressure conditions, making the seal safer than conventional rubber or composition gasket cookers.
Crafted of the finest hand-cast aluminum, this durable cooker/canner features a stay-cool Bakelite top handle, geared steam gauge, automatic overpressure release, and pressure regulator weight with settings of 5 psi, 10 psi, and 15 psi. The attractive satin finish is smooth and easy to clean. Double thick edges provide added protection on points of heaviest wear. The total measurements are 16-3/4 inches high with a 12-1/4-inch inside diameter. All-American pressure cookers are made in the USA. This cooker/canner is not suitable for glass or flat top ranges.

I use this canner for making jams. It is fantastic! Really like that you can use 5, 10, or 15lbs of pressure for whatever you are making. I have even abused it on more than one occasion and it is still going strong. Even cooked several rice and meat dishes in here with great results. If the inside gets dirty I've found that the steel wool is a pain and doesn't do the job as well as the manufacturer says it will and has left scratches on the inside. I use Barkeepers Friend on a kitchen sponge or sponge/scrubber and it does a great job. Williams Sonoma recommends them with Calphalon pans as it doesn't scratch when used with a sponge. Works wonders on my cooker!
