23-quart capacity for large-batch canning

The Presto 01781 is a 23-quart aluminum pressure canner and cooker designed for home food preservation. It processes low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats and fish using the only method the USDA recommends as safe. The extra-strong, warp-resistant construction suits regular and smooth-top ranges.

Included rack and recipe book simplify setup

A cooking and canning rack is supplied to keep jars off the bottom during processing. The bundled instruction and recipe book provides step-by-step guidance for pressure canning and water-bath preserving of fruits, jams, jellies, pickles and salsas.

Gauge-based pressure control requires altitude

The easy-to-read dial gauge registers a complete range of processing pressures but must be monitored manually and calibrated for elevations above sea level. The air vent and cover lock prevent pressure build-up until the cover is sealed and stop opening until pressure drops safely. The unit holds 7 quart, 20 pint or 24 half-pint jars per batch.

Questions about this item

How often does the dial gauge on the 01781 need to be checked for accuracy?

The dial gauge should be tested annually before canning season to ensure it registers correct processing pressures for low-acid foods.

What limits how many jars can be processed in one batch?

The 23-quart capacity holds up to 7 quart jars, 20 pint jars, or 24 half-pint jars per load.

How much heat does the aluminum body transfer to the handles during long canning sessions?

The warp-resistant aluminum conducts heat efficiently; handle areas become hot during sustained use, so use pot holders when moving the canner.
