Hi folks.
In another thread, it was suggested that I get a pressure canner to start canning my homemade soups and stocks. What a great idea! However, I don't own a canner and have never canned.
What do you recommend for a pressure canner for a newbie? Is it better to start with a smaller one or a larger one? (If you have a large one, can you still use it for smaller amounts?)
I'm currently considering either a 23quart or a 16 quart Presto model from Amazon.
Do either of these seem like particularly good or bad or do you have other recommendations instead? Stuff to watch out for? Any tips for this pressure canner newbie would be appreciated. Thanks!
