Steam Canner with Temperature Indicator (Aluminum Steam Canner + Tools)

I am new to canning. I bought this steam canner because I wanted to try canning jams and jellies. It is very easy to use. It is very high quality.and the cost of this steamer was very reasonable. It works very well for my canning. And it saves a lot of water over the boiling water canner.

This steamer I so much cooler to use than my water bath canner. Of course, the middle of the summer is the hottest time to can unless doing early in the morning. Even though we have air conditioning and the range hood in high, it was just too hot to can on those 100 degree days.This canner is the ideal solution. So easy to use and uses less water. The temp gauge is great to make sure the product will be safely canned.Easy to assembly. I was initially concerned about the lid in the top. I looked at a different steamer with handles on lid and bottom and riled it out because there was no temp gauge. I loveThe temp gauge. To my surprise, the lid is okay to lift the top without a pot holder. Of course I would try carefully and have a pot holder nearby.This steamer has a small hole in the back side that should be pointed away from you. I thought that would be hard to figure out and then realized in the top of the cover is the brand name and the exhaust hole is on the opposite side.I am still working to keep the red arrow attached to the gauge as it keeps falling off and it is so tiny and could easily be lost. Probably assembly error on my part. I set the little red arrow aside till I figure this out. This gauge has letters rather than temps which is okay as you just need to set the gauge and be sure to read the manual for explanation.I just canned a batch of chutney and it was so much easier. I liked that I did not have to lug the full canning pot to the sink to empty. I would have to wait till it cooled down (sometimes Overnight) to empty.Great steamer too. I had a huge Napa cabbage that I wanted to make stuffed cabbage. I cut off the bottom of the cabbage and removed the leaves and placed in the steamer and will assembly the cabbage rolls when the cabbage cools. I look forward to steaming corn on cob or dumplings or whole cauliflower or broccoli. I don’t have to break in little pieces to fit into our small stove top steamer.Game changers. If you ever water-bath canned and gave iPad or few tired Of the water bathProcesses, try this steamer. Even though I have all the extra canning tools that came with this steamCanner, It is alway worth it to have extras.

I love this steam canner!! Easy to use, great value ,well made and it’s so much faster than a large water bath canner. When I emailed my warranty registration the company emailed me back within 2 hours with a confirmation. Very impressed and I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a canner!

This stainless steel steam canner is exactly what I needed! It heats up quickly and works perfectly on my induction cooktop, which can be hard to find with some canners. The temperature indicator is a great feature—it takes the guesswork out of canning and ensures everything is processed at the right temperature. It’s also lightweight compared to traditional water bath canners, making it easier to handle when full. Cleanup is simple, and the quality feels durable and well-made. If you're looking for a reliable, easy-to-use steam canner, this is a great choice. Highly recommend!

I have only used this once, so I can't really rate higher than 4 stars until I actually make pickles (next year). I do wish I had purchased this prior to making pickles this year. The reality is my kitchen was much cooler by not doing the water bath method when I canned salsa yesterday. The ability to easily move and pure the canning water from this item compared to the very heavy water bath canner is safer too. No jar rack to lower into boiling water or lift out is also safer. I normally have both gas burners on under the traditional water bath canner. But, for this steamer I only used one burner (equals cooler kitchen). I bragged about it to a friend who says maybe she will have to buy one. I recommend if you're reading this and have second thoughts that you go ahead and buy one. Keep your box, invoice, and instruction manual because this comes with a 5 year warranty. Depending on where you live and the crops you're growing you may have canning to do today, tomorrow, or soon. Go ahead...add this to your cart.

The media could not be loaded. UPDATE: I've changed my review from 2 stars to 5 stars after receiving excellent customer service from the company. After exchanging emails, I was told that some water sources (in my case, well water) contain particles that attach themselves to the pan and appear rusted. A simple solution is a good cleaning with a product called Bar Keepers Friend. Do not use steel wool though, just a regular sponge with a srubby side. The steam canner performed very well in my 1st run of jelly. I'd highly recommend the canner and the company. You can also use the pot to cook food in it as it's rated for such. Bonus! This canner is easier to use than a water bath canner and makes sterilizing jars simple and safe. It's a keeper! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ORIGINAL REVIEW: Rust spots developed on the interior of the bottom pot during the initial calibration. Stainless steel should not rust. The pot did not boil dry at all. See photos. My elevation is not to high above sea level and the gauge needle went off the chart, which I suppose is the maximum. This was confusing. I contacted the company's support on their website, we will see how they respond. I really wanted to love this product but the rust issues are worrisome.
