- Can it pressure-can low-acid foods like green beans?
- Yes. It is designed for pressure canning low-acid foods as well as water-bath canning high-acid foods like fruit and pickles.
- How many jars fit at once?
- It holds a batch of pint or quart jars, fewer than a large stovetop canner. Check Presto's jar-loading guide for your jar size before starting.
- Does it need a stove or burner?
- No. It is electric and plugs into a standard outlet, so it works without a stove burner.
- Can I use it as a regular pressure cooker?
- Yes. It also pressure-cooks large batches of beans, stews and stocks, though its canning cycles are the main draw.
- Is the inner pot dishwasher safe?
- The stainless steel body wipes clean easily; check the manual for which parts, such as the rack and lid, can go in the dishwasher.
