National Presto 16 qt. Aluminum Pressure Canner and Cooker

The National Presto 16 qt. Aluminum Pressure Canner and Cooker is designed for confident home canning and large-capacity pressure cooking. Featuring an easy-to-read dial gauge for accurate pressure control, it automatically registers a complete range of processing pressures. Built-in safety features include an air vent/cover lock that permits pressure build-up only when properly closed and prevents the lid from being opened until internal pressure is safely reduced. Constructed from heavy-gauge, warp-resistant aluminum, this multi-purpose appliance delivers fast, even heat distribution across regular and smooth-top cooking ranges. In addition to serving as a USDA-recommended method for processing low-acid vegetables, meats, and seafood, it doubles as a boiling water bath canner for preserving fruits, jams, and salsas. Includes a cooking/canning rack and a comprehensive instruction and recipe guide.
