Review on Top-rated Presto Canner Pressure Regulator - Pack of 1, Silver – Enhance Your Canning Experience! by Keith Maynard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

My pressure cooker now maintains constant pressure

I have one of those large (23 litre) Presto pressure cookers. The regulator was only good to prevent an explosion. I'd have to constantly monitor it and adjust the heat up or down to maintain a certain pressure. Presto had a similar one so I checked to see if it was possible. Only thing they said is if there is a difference use a counter. I can stuff 15 pounds in it. I put this on and when the heat was too intense it released enough vapor to support a weight of just over 15 pounds. That way I can be sure it stays at the right pressure and temperature. I heard the valve swing in the other room, so I would know if I ran out of water. So compare, hold that pressure cooker valve you have to watch like a hawk for 75 minutes, or if you just adjust the temperature so the steam comes out and leaves the room. Find! I don't know why Presto doesn't include their version. Oh, by removing the rings you can earn 5 and 10 pounds.
