Canners and Other Equipment
See here for this item on Amazon
#1 - Home Canning Kit
This is the
canner and complete kit - everything you need in one package.  It is
also the same make and model that my family has used for 3
generations - my grandmother made everything from applesauce to jams
and jellies to tomato and spaghetti sauce with it!
See here for this item on Amazon
#2 - SMALL SIZE 12 quart Granite Ware Enamel on Steel Canning Kit
A good, well made, basic water bath canner, but it is a very small size.
The manufacturer does not recommend this canner for glass or ceramic
top stoves as it does not have a flat bottom. However, our experience is
that these
water-bath canners
work fine on "most" flat top
stoves.
See my page about
using a glass or ceramic stovetop for canning
See here for a McSunley Stainless Steel Home Canner  on Amazon
#3 - McSunley Stainless Steel Home Canning Kits
The same as the kit above, but in stainless steel.  In addition to being a great canner, it is an excellent large cooking pot.
Our experience is
that these flat-bottomed
water-bath canners
work fine on "most" flat top
stoves.
See my page about
using a glass or ceramic stovetop for canning
Blake's rating
: long lasting, well built.  I have two of
these!
See here for a larger canner on Amazon
#4 - Home Canning Kits - Larger
This is the same as the one above, except larger - 21 quarts.
This means it holds 7 quart jars.
The manufacturer does not recommend the
Water Bath Canner
Package
for glass or ceramic top stoves as it does not have a flat
bottom. However, our experience is that these canners work fine on "most"
flat top stoves. A stove with a large burner size is recommended.
Blake's rating
: Same model as the #1, just wider to hold 2 more jars,
long lasting, well built
See here for Ball Elite Stainless steel water bath canneron Amazon
#5 Ball Elite Stainless steel water bath canner
Made of stainless steel, so it should last a lifetime - it would also
make a great pot to cook applesauce. I have one of these.
Heat resistant silicone handles protect your hands and ensure a secure
grip. Dual steam vents on the lid prevent fogging so you can see inside.
Corrosion resistant rack holds jars of various sizes. 21-quart size.
Stainless steel. Hand wash.

#6 Victorio Stainless Steel Multi-Use Canner with Temperature Indicator
USE ON ANY RANGE
: Flat clad bottom for even heating
on any cooktop, including induction ranges

Extra tall stainless steel (OR aluminum) canning pot
If you have found that the standard canning pots boil over and spill hot
water because you have to fill them so full to ensure that quart jars are
covered by 1 to 2 inches of water, then here is the solution.  This pot is
not called a canner, but it works perfectly well as one. The rack from your
old canner will fit inside it (I don't use the perforated plate that you
see in the photo - it doesn't seat well with the weight of 7 quart jars on
it . And because it is 32 quarts in volume rather than 21, the water returns
to a boil faster after you put the jars in it.  This pot adds to safety
and reduces mess. And, of course, you can use
this as a steamer pot for seafood and other foods, too!
This pot is
usually available online - but sometimes they run out - it is a 32-Quart Aluminum Tamale and Steamer Pot with Lid. If this brand
isn't available, the
Bayou
brand turkey fryer pots
are almost identical, just 4 quarts larger in
volume.And then you can use your existing canning rack or
get one here

Ball FreshTech Electric Water Bath Canner, Silver
Yes, there really is an
electric water bath canner now, and it is sold by Ball.

Blake: I also have this one, and it it is my favorite: it's big,
stainless steel, has a clear lid, and a thermometer built into the lid.

Kits -
everything BUT the pot, flat rack
If you already have a 10 qt or larger pot, and you only made a few jars

jars, like the 4oz, 8 oz and pint jars that can slip through the standard
canning racks.

silicone...)
