Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Back to Basics 400A 7-Quart Aluminum Home Steam Canner
Customer Review: PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS CANNER TO CAN...
Summary: 1 Stars
I have been home canning for almost 30 years. I have tried every method of food preservation there is. I have canned/preserved just about every food there is. I have read extensively on the subject of home food preservation. I am not a home economist, but I know they would agree with me when I say... PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS STEAM CANNER TO HOME CAN FOOD. IT IS NOT A SAFE, RELIABLE METHOD OF CANNING. You may be lucky and have good results OR you may be unlucky and harm yourself and your family. Why would you take a chance with your, or your loved ones, health? Please DON'T take a chance when there are safe, reliable canners and methods available. Contact your local county extension office or go to the USDA website---www.usda.gov, look under Food and Nutrition, then go to Food Preservation, Home Canning. Then, please, choose a SAFE, RELIABLE CANNER and do it the safe way. As for the idea of speed, use a pressure canner. It can be used for low and high acid foods and is quicker than a water bath canner. It is really the only canner you need and they come in various sizes. Again, consult your local county extension office or the USDA website. PLEASE! UPDATE FROM COMMENTS POST: The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) has studied this steam canner method, as have numerous state and county agencies, along with several universities which specialize in this field and several foreign countries, such as Canada, including several of their provincial agencies. This steam canner method IS NOT safe for home canning. The only method of safe steam canning for home use is PRESSURE canning. Again, to anyone considering this method, PLEASE, PLEASE don't.
