Size: 41.5 Quarts

This is my 2nd All American Canner. I wanted the 41 qt it and it is a game changer! It holds so much more than my 21 qt! It is heavy duty and well made. There just isn't another canner on the market that compares to All American! It is worth the money if you are canning! During the first use, the pressure gauge had some condensation. I called in and sent a photo. They shipped a new one out and it arrived 3 days later. The only other difference in this one vs my 21 qt is the canner racks. The ones sent with this are wire racks instead of the aluminum ones that came with my 21 qt years ago. The wire racks will rust so be sure to pull them out when you pull out the cans. I should be able to can all summer long.

This is an absolutely beautiful Pressure Canner made right here in the USA. After a long while trying to decide which model to get I finally decided on the 41.5 quart. The first thing I did when the UPS driver left was to fill the canner with 19 empty Ball quart jars. They fit perfectly. My mother had an old Mirro pressure canner that would only hold 7 quarts. When she saw it her first comment was how much faster I'd be able to get the canning done. As far as quality goes I don't see how you could get any better. This thing screams American made quality. Every part seems to be heavy duty and the fit and finish are second to none. I think this will be something the family will be fighting over after I'm gone so I guess I better start deciding who I'm going to leave it to in my will. One thing to remember - this pressure canner is huge. You will probably have trouble fitting it on top of the stove in your kitchen unless you pull the stove out in order for the canner to clear the fan. I'll be using a Bayou Classic single burner patio stove outside in the garage when I do my canning. I've seen others do this on youtube and I think it's the way to go with this particular model. This canner weighs 39 pounds empty. It has good handles so if you need help two people could pick this up before you put water and jars in. It's my hope that more younger people get into canning and I think this is the canner to get if you really want to put up a years worth of food without spending a week in the kitchen. ***UPDATE*** 09/07/2014 I have had this pressure canner for two days and I just did my first batch. I canned 24 Ball widemouth PINT jars of pinto beans and ham. The following is my timing list... 1. @ 10:40am I lite the propane gas burner 2. @ 11:04am the first sign of steam appeared (I could have turned up the flame more and reached this point faster) 3. @ 11:12am a steady stream of steam was visible - I let this steady stream go on for 13 minutes which is a little longer than needed before I added the weight. 4. @ 11:24am the gauge was reading 5psi without my adding the weight (10psi setting on the weight at my altitude - your setting may be different) 5. @ 11:25am I put the weight on using the 10psi setting 6. @ 11:28am the pressure reached 10psi 7. @ 11:30am the pressure gauge was reading just over 11psi which is perfect for my altitude - at this point I had to turn down the propane burner so low that the flame was barely able to maintain itself. That means it uses very little propane once it reaches temperature. 8. @ 1:00pm exactly 90 minutes after the pressure gauge was reading 11psi I turned off the gas burner. 9. @ 1:40pm the pressure gauge had returned to 0psi 10. I removed the weight and then carefully removed the lid and placed it on the same towel that I used to put the jars on. It took 3 hours for me to go from lighting the burner and then going back to 0psi after 90 minutes of processing. Not bad at all. All 24 of the jars did perfectly. I did not watch to see how long the contents of the jars continued to boil. I wanted to give out this information about my first experience with this canner because this is all the information I wanted to know before I decided to purchase the model 941. I am extremely happy with this purchase and will be recommending this size pressure canner to everyone.

When I purchased this item, I didn't expect the manual to double as a cookbook! But it does. And it has stuff that would be hard to find...not just meats, but also tounges, liver, and various other animal-related things. It ALSO has instructions for canning...in CANS! Yes, actual metal cans, not just jars! (Aparently you can buy cans and lids for this purpose!) And don't forget you can use this as a pressure COOKER. it has instructions for that, too. It has a lot of recipes for meats and meals! Okay, onto the most important item...the canner itself: As stated, this unit is heavy, and heavy-duty. There is no gasket, just follow the instructions and "grease" the slanted inside lip with olive oil (or vaseline, but not general-purpose cooking oils) every 3-4 uses. They recommend an empty run so you know what noises a pressure canner makes when it is venting, and how to control the heat. With an electric stove, this is not difficult. One note, I find that I put the number dial on my electric stove 1 # lower with filled jars in the canner than with an empty practice run. It is easy to use, just make sure you have space above your stove to get jars out of the canner. I think someone else mentioned the unit by itself is 16" tall. As they say, tighten two opposite wingnuts at a time. It is easy, though I have yet to keep my vegetables from floating. It could be I have to switch to hot-pack (though I've read cold-pack is just safer since food won't be so packed it doesn't heat fully inside). I find my squash-tomato combo floats and liquid is lost. However, the jars sealed perfectly, which is the most important thing. I shook them down the next day to get the veggies back under the liquid, for the most part. (This is not a safety issue, though food above the liquid may discolor if on the shelf a long time. I'm not sure that will happen since I plopped into lemon-juiced water, and blanched the squash in same liquid before draining and adding tomatoes.) They are also very serious about burn issues. I am short, so to reach around the canner and adjust my stove temperature, I wear an oven mitt and drape a potholder over my forearm with the other hand. The instructions are quite complete, and I am impressed with the heaviness of the unit, and confident it will last and last! Even if the pressure dial ever wears out, the weighted gauge never will, so this is safe. Besides, the unit is MADE IN AMERICA, and parts can be ordered at any time. If you use this for years and years, maybe this will be the pressure dial or (I forget what to call it) emergency pressure release (rubberized thing stuck in a hole in the cover), or if you ever dropped the unit, a wing nut. You can get a new manual at any time. You can get a new safety label for FREE if the old one ever comes off. You can send the item for SERVICE IN THE U.S.A. if service, or just evaluation, is ever needed! I LOVE that Wisconson Aluminum Foundry is a good, old-fashioned, service-oriented AMERICAN company! Thank you!
