SEEKING a LARGE CAPACITY PRESSURE CANNER

[satx78247]

Friends,

I'm currently looking for a GOOD USED "stovetop" pressure canner of at least 5 gallon capacity.
(BIGGER would be better. - The one that my Aunt Mary had, but which was "pitched out" after her passing, was over 50 quarts.)

IF you have or know of one for sale, please PM me.

THANKS, satx

You would probably get much better results using Craigslist for all this stuff you keep looking.

Just an opinion.

Ebay or Amazon.

rotor,

NEITHER Amazon NOR Ebay has any USED canners, = IF I had wanted to buy a NEW canner, I would NOT have posted a request here.

I may be able to help you (satx78247) out with this. Wait while I contact someone. My daughter has something. Too late she just sold it.

Best of luck finding one. Prices for the new ones of the size you mentioned looked pretty reasonable to me on Ebay. Since you haven't found a used one since posting about one in Feb 2016 I thought a new one at less than $100 might be a good deal. Sorry for wasting your time.

mp_tx,

FYI, Canners work just as well on stovetops in Portugal OR on Tuscany's seacoast as they do in the USA.
(Nonetheless, I chuckled when I read your post.)

FYI, a "certain lady", who is near & dear to me, likes to garden/raise vegetables & wants to learn to "put up" some of what she raises. =ONE of the first things that she said when I started talking about retiring OCONUS & finding a house on rural land (I am NOT a "city kitty" & never will be.) was, "WONDERFUL. I want a BIG garden, like 'Granny' had when I was a child. - We always had great fresh vegetables, fresh fruit & lots of pretty flowers, too, back then ."
(I found her an "old-school guide" from the USDA on "home food preservation" that she has been avidly reading. = On the 2nd day after I gave her the book, she asked me to look for her a good/big canner.)

To paraphrase an old saying: "You can take a girl out of the country but not the country out of the girl." = Her family moved to a BIG city when she was in Junior High.

FYI, she also wants, "----- a horse of my own."

rotor,

An EQUIVILENT large capacity & HEAVY-DUTY canner (like the ones that were commonplace in the pre-WWII-1980 era) are at least 500-700.oo in 2021 plus S&H.
(FYI, "the 100 buck variety" that are on Ebay are NOT at all what my lady is seeking, as they are made of thin material & often don't hold pressure well.)

I may be 100% WRONG but I suspect that all of the "old school" canners were NOT "pitched out"/trashed. = IF enough people are asked, I believe someone will have one that they want to sell.

I have a Presto canner and it has worked well for me the past couple of years. The All American brand would be my go to for longterm use. If you do get a used one, be sure to get new gaskets. Best of luck in your search
