Tysm for your video. The step by step visual instructions are perfect to follow. So glad people are going back to old school canning. We became too reliable on mass commercial foods that have degraded us to garbage food in the last century. Before commercial food and big pharma we took care of our families just fine since the beginning of time. God blass you and yours!

I'm so excited that I bought the electric canner. I'm canning the chicken now as I watch you. I did some research on the canner. Watch a lady from the channel call ROSE RED. she is a science professor and did placed an object in the canner to see if it kept the proper pressure. Please watch her so your viewers can feel safe to use the canner.

From what I have read, it is safe to consume as long as it was not out on the counter for more than 24 hours. You can also boil chicken for 10 minutes before consuming just to be sure but that is not a necessary step. You'll want to use or refrigerate immediately upon discovering it did not seal.

Only half pints and pints can be water bathed in this canner due to needing at least an inch of water covering jars for proper processing. Since pressure canning does not require that much water (only to the fill line of the canning pot) half pints, pints, and quarts can be pressure canned properly. I hope this helps! -Jamie

You can add like a teaspoon of vinegar in there and you won't get those water rings that's just a lime built up from your water

In pressure canning you only need the required amount of water for your canner. This canner requires 3 quarts of water and has a nifty fill line to help make sure the amount is correct. Water bath canning is what requires at least one inch of water above the jars for safe canning. I hope this helps! -Jamie
