I had no idea how we came to get canning and found this very interesting. The part about using a weight rather than a gage was also interesting. My pressure canner was my grandmother's but it has a gage. I wonder if I can replace the gage with a weight.
If it's a common brand like a Mirro or Presto you could buy a new guage.
Check with your county extension office, some of them will test and calibrate guages.
Oh, how I wish the critters out here wouldn't eat everything I attempted to grow--but if I ever do get to move out of the woods, I would love to try canning. Thanks for a very informative article with great pictures, too--I will save it for future reference.
