Any canners out there?

[rubysi]

The dh and I really enjoy canning but we have been doing only water bath canning. Anyone use a pressure canner? What one do you use and do you like it.? I also have a question for anyone who makes sauerkraut. My first batch was delicious but I can't seem to recreate it do you have any recipes?

I know we have other canners around. My brain just isn't working yet. Someone got a pressure canner for Xmas.

Brain is NOT working.....

I've only used water baths over here as well...

I can, but I just use a water bath. I'd be interested to hear from people that use a pressure cooker.

I do! Mostly water bath canning but I tried my hand at pressure canning. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be. I'm not sure what brand I have but I registered for it for my wedding. I usually go on Amazon, search and filter results by 4+ stars. From there you can see what's in your price range. I've only tried canning beans. I figured I should start simple. It worked well but DH had to help me figure out how to open the canner after since it was sealed shut. He found a video on YouTube that helped. I guess it happens all the time. GL!
