Our take on the Presto Aluminum Pressure Cooker & Canner, 23 Quart

The Presto 01781 is a 23-quart aluminum pressure cooker and canner built for large-batch pressure canning and big-volume cooking. It holds up to 7 quart jars or 16 pint jars per load, which puts it in the same class as other full-size canners rather than stovetop cookers. It uses a weighted pressure regulator that jiggles to signal pressure, and it works on gas and electric coil stoves. It suits people putting up garden produce or stock in quantity; for everyday small meals a 6- to 8-quart cooker is easier to handle.

What reviewers say

Owners of the Presto 23-quart canner generally report it seals well and holds steady pressure through long canning runs, and many use it for years. Complaints center on its weight when loaded, aluminum staining, and the need to watch the jiggling regulator rather than rely on a gauge.

Questions and answers

How many jars does it hold?
It fits up to 7 quart jars or 16 pint jars in a single load, depending on jar size and rack setup.
Does it work on induction cooktops?
No. The aluminum body is not induction-compatible; it works on gas and electric coil burners.
Can it be used as a regular pressure cooker?
Yes. Beyond canning, it cooks large batches of stews, stocks and beans under pressure.
How do I know it has reached pressure?
The weighted regulator begins to jiggle and release steam at the set pressure; you regulate the heat to keep a steady jiggle.
What comes in the box?
The canner, a rack for holding jars, and the weighted pressure regulator; check the contents list for the exact set.
Is it worth it over a smaller cooker?
If you can produce in large batches, the full jar capacity saves time per run. For small daily meals, a 6- to 8-quart cooker is easier to handle.
