I just went & looked at my pressure cooker that lynda was ridiculing the other day. I don't know ifProbably so.
it is a canner ; it says "mirro matic" & "16"
the cardboard thing on the top just says pressure cooker, not pressure canner, but the d*mn thing is so big, it almost certainly coukld be used for either, I think? I don't think it was ever used. It still has the other paper and cardboard stuff on the inside; the rubber gasket feels like new; and it still has the wire tray thing you would life jars or meats or something out with. I think it is a 16 quart?? That is probably what the "16" means.
Is that big enough for pressure canning?. I think I paid $10 for it , 8 orNeeds to be large enough to hold 4 quart jars, lidded, and still clamp closed, and to have either an adjustable or movable weight or a gauge.
