Product Description

Only the ALL AMERICAN Pressure Canner features an exclusive, precision machined “metal-to-metal” sealing system. These Pressure Canners for canning feature positive action clamping locks that align the cover to the base, forming a steam-tight seal. Since the seal does not use a gasket, the cover can be easily opened and closed. The ALL AMERICAN Canner makes it easy to can fish, meat, vegetables and fruits – it’s the only method the USDA recommends for low-acid foods. All canning pressure cooker models feature a precision machined regulator weight for accurate pressure control and an easy-to-read, 8.5 x 5.5″ Instruction and Recipe Book. Suitable for gas, electric, or flat top stoves. 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. 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 at the points of heaviest wear.

Amazon.com

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 21-1/2-quart capacity holds 19 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

... first test batch in the canner and I'm really happy with it

July 5, 2015

Size: 41.5 qtVerified Purchase

I just did my first test batch in the canner and I'm really happy with it. It's huge and will allow me to can a ton of produce at a time reducing the effort and tediousness of canning. I've had freezers fail in the past and almost ruined frozen food. I'm going to be canning more to prevent that from happening again. Canning is a more realistic option now, due to the capacity of this canner. The description says it can hold 32 pints but I like using wide mouth pints. It holds 25 of those plus an additional 3 regular mouth for a total of 28 per load. If you're looking to substantially reduce your time and increase production this is the canner for you.

It also holds 21 wide mouth quarts. 10 on the lower level and 11 on the top.

Advice given in Q&A section is incorrect for cookers not hitting pressure, but excellent customer service from the factory fixed

September 4, 2016

Size: 15.5 qtVerified Purchase

Excellent craftsmanship, even better customer service. Almost returned it as damaged, but a call to the factory led to a series of return calls from various people till they got me an expert online. The advice given in the question and answer section, wasn't helpful to me, my pressure cooker would keep going to 10psi then make a popping sound, and vent steam, and never go up to 15. I thought I had a warped one somehow, but heard good things about the company, so decided to call them.

I had followed all the suggestions on here to make the lid even, to oil the lip where they connect, to tighten the bolts across from each other to keep the lid flat. The factory instead had my even the lid, make sure the lip was oiled, tighten the bolts across from each other to just touching, then to go around the lid, not on opposite bolts but on the bolts beside each other one by one, to tighten it down further. Completely opposite advice from what was said in here, but after 8 failed attempts, the info from the factory worked for me on the very next try. I then made a pot of soup stock up, and it hit pressure again with no problems.

WORTH EVERY PENNY - 21.5 QT model comes with second rack

April 20, 2017

Size: 21.5 qtVerified Purchase

Future Buyers: You do not need to order an extra rack. I have actually not used the pressure cooker I purchased yet, but I have used my friend's and it works amazingly. Maybe I missed it, but I looked hard to find out how many racks were included with the cooker and I could only find "comes with rack" (seemed like a good indication that there was only one). On top of that when Amazon suggested based on other's purchases that I buy the canning kit and the additional rack, I figured it was a common need. Sure enough everything arrived and the Pressure Cooker came with two racks, so back my extra rack will go.
Three tips from using my friend's All American Pressure Cooker: 1. Do yourself a favor and go to the All American Pressure Cooker website and watch the video on what constitutes a "jiggle". 2. Rest assured that the column of steam you are looking for will not be a thick full column of visible steam, but instead means that there is constant flow of air out of the vent. At one point I started to second guess this and kept looking for a thick visible column of steam and it caused me to over-process a couple of batches. 3. I found it helpful to use a ruler (or other guide) to make sure the lid is on evenly. While I could tell if the cover was way off - it would definitely look uneven - it was nice to have something to measure with to be sure.

Also, a lot of people wonder what type of range they can use this with. I have a Frigidaire ceramic electric range top I called them and they said since the Pressure Cooker is quality aluminum that it is fine to use. The only worry is with scratching the surface of the range, but it will be a cosmetic issue not a functionality issue.

All American Pressure Cooker HAS AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE - the hours are all Eastern Time and work hours, so not the most convenient, but they have helped answer so many questions about canning and preserving different items not listed in the booklet that comes with the cooker.

Extremely difficult to obtain seal

March 24, 2018

Size: 21.5 qtVerified Purchase

I purchased this well before it was needed, it looked undamaged so I put it away till summer. That was a mistake as return window has past. I have used a 60's model AA caner for years and it NEVER failed to make a seal without even trying. The designers and engineers dropped the ball on this one. The old seal was a gradual taper, this has a sharp bevel. This means if it is fitted even a fraction of a millimeter off on the whole circumference, it will fail to seal. The one time out of the first three tries I had success, I measured all around with my MM rule and ground down a screwdriver to that number to use as a try gauge. The outcome was 2 out of three were sealed. This is horrible, I threw out hard earned produce because despite what the book says, you CAN NOT cool down and retry, your food will be mush. If you think you want a caner, search for one of the older models.

You can't beat the best

January 27, 2011

Size: 21.5 qtVerified Purchase

I have owned several gasketed canners, and after using the gasket-free kind, I'll never go back. I purchased my first All-American King Kanner about 30 years ago at an estate sale for $5. I have no idea how old it was when I bought it. I'm still using it. I have also owned a Presto canner, but buying the right gasket became a pain, and the bottom of the canner became so pitted that I thought it unsafe to continue to use it. Since we can so much, I wanted to still have two canners, thus the purchase of my second All-American. We just finished processing hogs, and used the canner for a batch of soup broth.

As others have mentioned, this is one serious hunk of metal. We have to put it on the stove burner, then load it. Lifting a loaded canner is beyond my capability. One has to be patient letting the canner come off of pressure before unloading the jars.

Since I had no instruction book with my other A-A canner, the one that comes with the new canner is really handy. Wish we could upload photos because I took one with both canners side-by-side.
