Presto 01784 23-Quart Induction Compatible Pressure Canner

Quality canner and solidly made. I used this to can ground beef and chicken. Everything worked well and I used the weighted gauge instead of the temperature gauge. Worked as advertised and I was very happy with the purchase. I did buy extra gaskets for down the line. The best part is it is solid but not super heavy like the All American.

I have used this canner quite a bit, and It does a good job. It is a little finicky getting the lid seated on, but once you get the hang of it it is not too bad. The only negative I would say is moisture builds up in the pressure dial, and that sometimes makes it harder to read it. Otherwise it works great.

That you put three quarters on top of the jiggle weight to make her purr at 18 psi, make sure your grain spawn is fully cooked aka pasturized. Also make sure to purchase a NuWave II induction cooktop cooker where you can program times for cooking etc it's good to see that out of a lot of things in this world this product has actually increased in value from 123 to now 180 since 2020 100000/10 quality, ease of use, build structure, appearance, noise level, weight, fit, it was a great value of money then and still is now!

I am a beginner at pressure canning. The well written Instructions gave me piece of mind that I was canning correctly. This canner works very well!

New to canning, I’ve had this canner only 4 months, but have used it multiple times to pressure can carrots, collards, green beans, chicken stock, tomatoes, and tomato sauce. I have a Bosch Induction Range, and this Presto canner is fantastic on induction. It holds a double rack of pints, and a single layer of quarts. Also, the recommendation to purchase the “Presto 50332 Canner Pressure Regulator” for this canner is spot-on. I couldn’t pressure can without it. Instead of constantly watching the dial, you simply listen for the jiggle, which makes it possible to pressure can while you do other things in the kitchen or nearby. I have a few favorite tips to share for those new to canning: 1) Read your canner manual and watch youtube videos on pressure canning, then make a list of steps and type them out. You’ll find this handy each time you can. 2) Use verified and safe canning recipes only. Internet recipes are sometimes unsafe. The Ball Blue Book of Canning and Preserving 2020 gives lots of recipes, safety advice, and how to’s. My 2nd go-to is the National Center for Home Food Preservation, online. 3) After filling your jars and removing air bubbles, *always* wipe the jar rims with a clean damp cloth. Even a tiny bit of food will prevent your jars from sealing. 4) The first couple times you pressure can, keep notes. To bring your canner up to steam, then up to pressure, you must set your burner on the highest setting possible. But you don’t want to leave it at that high setting throughout. Once you achieve pressure (either via your gauge or the ‘jiggling’ of the weighted regulator (with the proper weight) mentioned above, begin turning your heat down in increments every few minutes. When the canner looses proper pressure or the regulator stops jiggling, turn your heat back up a bit until you’ve reached pressure again (and stop your processing time!). This way, you know the lowest burner setting to maintain pressure, and how quickly/slowly you should go in turning the burner down to that setting. Make notes, and keep them in your step by step list. Allowing your burner to stay on the highest setting throughout will cause you to lose liquid in your cans and your canner, and it’s easier on your glass cooktop to use the lowest setting that will still maintain pressure. Canning is far easier than I imagined, and I’m hooked! Happy canning!

My wife wanted a pressure canner, and after looking at all of the various models, this is the best for the money. Unfortunately, it was hard to get. We had decided on the Presto 01781 when we discovered this model, the 01784 Induction Compatible model. Even if you don't have an induction stove, the stainless steel clad bottom provides more even heating and is a little heavier duty. Unable to find it anywhere, including on Amazon, I ordered it directly from Presto who were also out of stock, but they said that they were expecting a shipment around the end of July, 2020. On the morning of July 15, 2020, Amazon suddenly had the 01784 in stock. I ordered it and it was delivered on July 17, 2020. On July 16, 2020, the listing on Amazon once again said, "Currently unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock." Also, in the meantime, the canner that I purchased directly from Presto 2 months earlier arrived a week after the one from Amazon. It's for sale. We started using it the next day canning 2 gallons of chili (16 pint jars) in one load. The next day, my wife canned a bunch of green beans, mixed vegetables, and peppers, all things you can't can with a water bath canner. I encourage anyone buying this pressure canner/cooker to also buy the Presto Canner Pressure Regulator OEM Part Number 50332. This gives you the option of 5, 10 or 15 pounds pressure. An additional canning rack is also necessary if you want to stack the jars. There is a 2-pack available on Amazon of 11" canning racks with detachable legs. The 1.9" legs will put the jars just above the water which in my opinion is better than having just the bottom 3/4" of the jar setting in the water with the rest of the jar out. The single 15 pound regulator and no second rack being included is why I only give this pressure canner 4 stars. Other than that, its a great canner. Spend a few more bucks on a regulator and a rack and you can make it perfect.

Worked excellent!

Just canned 6 quarts of cabbage in my new canner. Easy to use, great instructions included.

Very good item

I've used this many times now. Excellent product, never fails me.

Diz que foi entregue mas não foi. Recebi o dinheiro de volta. Mas conheço o produto, Excelente custo benefício. Mas tem que comprar na promoção!

Great quality.

I have been using this for approximately five years now and I like it. It is not too heavy to deal with. The lid is easy to put on and I have zero concern about it coming loose during canning. Capacity is as described (7 quart jars or a couple of layers of pint jars). In Canada, I couldn't find a service that would re-calibrate the gauge so I rely on the weight. (Note that the gauge can be shipped to the manufacturer and they will calibrate it. Contact them for turn-around and shipping time). I eventually bought an extra plate to do a second layer with the smaller jars. I am using this successfully on an induction range. I also bought myself a back-up weight which I can separate to have 5 or 10 lbs in case I ever want to use this as a water bath canner for lower pressure items. I am at an altitude which would allow 12 lbs but the company confirmed to just can at 15 lbs.
