Product Description

Amazon.com 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 15-1/2-quart capacity holds 10 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

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect!, December 13, 2002

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: All-American 15-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner (Kitchen)
When I first ordered this canner, I wasn't sure if I would be able to maintain a steady pressure with my "pulsating" flat-top stove. With the thick aluminum walls, I have no problems at all. In fact, with such thick walls, I can put the burner on "high" and it will slowly build up pressure so I don't have to stand over the stove and constantly monitor as the pressure increases. Once at pressure, it is very easy to maintain the required pressure without having to constantly vent off excess pressure. The owner's manual recommends one to four jiggles per minute. It takes longer for this canner to cool down than others due to the thick walls. I factor this in to my processing time. It will maintain it's pressure (15 psi) for almost another 10 minutes with the burner off. This canner is designed to fit 7 quart jars perfectly. If your looking for a canner, this is it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Works extemely well, leak free, for multiple daily uses in laboratory, August 18, 2008
This review is from: All-American 15-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner (Kitchen)
One of the labs I supervised lacked funding to purchase an autoclave. We sterilized media broth, media agar, dilution agents, Petri dishes, flasks, bottles, and other microbiology utensils in a Mirro pressure canner. We sterilized a minimum of three batches daily, five and six days a week, year round. The Mirro canners constantly required new seals, yet the lids still frequently warped and leaked all over the stove. We replaced the Mirro canner twice in a year, let alone all of the gaskets we went through. I bought this All American pressure cooker when I saw the unique no gasket design, securing lugs, and the safety features built into this pressure cooker. My micro staff loved this pressure cooker. This All American pressure cooker never leaked, the lid fit perfectly time after time, and all of our batches came out properly sterilized. It impressed me so much after almost two years' use in a laboratory setting, that I am now buying one for my home canning. Made in USA, heavily built, well-engineered for performance and safety, and proven to me in multiple daily uses with three different users, including myself--a great pressure cooker in my experience, far better than the others we tried.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pressure canner is rock solid, December 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: All-American 15-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner (Kitchen)
I purchased this pressure cooker to do home canning. I am truly impressed with the product. It is build rock solid. A feature that I particularly enjoy is the lack of rubber seal required to use the cooker. The only problem I had with this item was the steamer plate that is used to elevate the canning jars above the bottom of the pot. It pitted easily and is not made of the same high quality aluminum that the pot is. Otherwise, the canner is built like a tank and weighs as much too.
