Lettie
What\'s the best thing for a first time cancer to can?
Kira
What kind of pressure canner do you recommend? Easiest first time pressure canning recipes?
Brett
What is better water bath versus pressure canned? Rather, why not pressure can everything?
Lisa
Differences in canners and using the right tool for the job. I\\u2019ve got a water bath canner for jams and such. My All American 930 is the bomb for large batches (and no gasket), but have discovered the Carey Smart Canner for small batches of soups, broths, leftover chili, etc. It\\u2019s great to have more than one option.

If you don\\u2019t have enough for another quart of say green beans, can you put a pint with the quarts and pressure can for time required for the quarts? Or would you recommend to just cook them for a meal?

If you only have 5 quarts to can and your canner when full fits 7 quarts is it necessary to add sealed quarts if water to fill the space or is it ok to just can 5 quarts? The water can be used as an emergency water source later on.

Why do you have to use a \\u201creplacement\\u201d jar or jar filled with water if you don\\u2019t have a full pressure canner load?
I usually have a full canner when I run it but I just found out you\\u2019re supposed to do this. i never have....\\U0001f633\\U0001f62c\\U0001f92d
