in the "5 steps to perfect grain spawn" video, RR loads the 10 quart jars into the pressure cooker. he doesnt mention what the water level ought to be. anybody know how much water i should put in the pressure cooker?

Follow your manufacturers instructions.
I usually put about 2 inches of water in there, but all PCs can vary.

It varies depending on the size pc and the model... U just want enough so that it doesn't dry up mid-run....
Mine takes 3qt's refer to your owners manual...

Indeed, an inch and change is usually fine, it'll only be in there for ~90 minutes anyways, just make sure you don't run it at full blast.

^^^^yup yup. 15 psi only. start timing it AT 15psi. and watch to make sure it doesnt go over. you will have to find the sweet spot on the stoves knob for this to work. It becomes super easy after the first couple of times.

tnx guys. ya see, i just bought the all american 921. but, i've never used a pressure cooker in my life. YES - i will most certainly read the instructions that came with it. but, i wanted to make sure that those instructions are applicable to sterilizing quart rye grain jars!
ok, so, i'll put a couple inches of water in it. i assume that a pressure cooker is different from an open steamer in that most of the water doesnt evaporate since that cooker is sealed - right?

It will lose water, but not as much, when it reaches 15psi, it lets steam escape to maintain that pressure.

yeah tnx - i looked at a lot of PCs at various stores. they all seemed cheap and overall too small. so, i bought the 921 on amazon and, when it arrived, i was like HOLY SHIT - this thing is a freakin' tool. a heavy duty MF

Some water will escape through a relief valve. They key is to have enough to last the whole PC time, but not boil the jars. just read the instructions, and you will have it down.

Yeah that 921 is a serious beast. My PC is small so I am stuck to doing multiple loads of 4 jars at a time. Get lots of PC experience points however. lol.

Yeah, the 16qt doesn't have a lot of clearance above the qt jars.

Your filter will dry out when you take them out. You should have the lids of all of them covered tightly with foil, so as not to get moisture from the PC in there.

Just put aluminum foil over your lids.
I've never had a problem with it.
