You are buying the latest model stainless steel base Presto canner. With all the features of our previous model but now with a stainless steel base so it can be used on induction stoves as well as all normal gas and electric cooktops.

Includes 3-piece regulator, canning gauge, gasket, and rack.

In the USA bottling is called canning and this unit is a common household item there. It can be used to bottle fruit on the stovetop and is considered to be the only safe way to bottle non-acidic foods such as vegetables as well as meat fish soups and sauces.

A must-have for canning vegetables, meats, and fish.
The easy-to-read gauge automatically registers a complete range of processing pressures.
A Three-piece regulator allows you to process at 5psi / 10psi and 15psi. Note that at sea level, normal pressure-cooking is done at 15psi but canning/bottling is done at 10psi. Without this regulator, you constantly need to monitor the dial gauge to ensure the pressure does not get too high so the regulator allows you to go away and do other things rather than having to constantly monitor the canner. (To use, 15psi = full regulator; 10 psi remove the top ring only; 5 psi remove both rings.)
The 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.
This Presto Pressure Canner also doubles 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 complete instruction and recipe book.
