Safety Features
This Presto model is loaded with safety features. These not only provide peace of mind while using high pressure, but there’s also a feature that alerts you to incomplete processing. This means less concern about unknown food safety issues. We also appreciate that this canner was tested extensively by Presto to meet USDA guidelines.

Alternative for Canning on Glass Stovetops
Some people have no issue with pressure canning on their glass stovetop. However, technically speaking, many glass stovetops are not rated for use with a pressure canner. The weight can simply be too much for that type of stovetop to bear. The Presto Digital Cannercan sit safely on your countertop! Also, being that this canner is electric, you’re no longer tied to your kitchen for canning.

As a busy homeschool, work-at-home mom, th...
Can you use a digital pressure cooker for canning?
Please don’t confuse the label “digital pressure canner” with “digital pressure cooker.” Some have asked if it’s okay to use an instant pot or other type of pressure cooker to can. Absolutely not! Pressure cookers are made to cook dinner. They’re not made to consistently and accurately regulate the pressure and internal temperature needed to ensure food is safe to sit on a shelf.
How many pints or quarts does the Presto Digital Canner hold?
The Presto Precise Digital Pressure Cannerholds 8 pint jars (7 wide-mouth) or 5 quart jars (4 wide-mouth) when pressure canning. It also doubles as a water bath canner for pint jars, of which it holds 8 regular or 7 wide-mouth for boiling water canning. We hope this Presto Digital Pressure Canner review answers your questions—especially if you’re a beginner canner who, until now, has been too overwhelmed to pressure can. In my opinion, anyone who is serious about food preservation is missing...
