Not any more I just bought them......HAHA just kidding, depends on if they have good seals, arent clogged, have all the right hardware, havn't been over heated or cooked dry and left to warp...etc
They look pretty old, might be hard to get pieces?
if you buy it and it will spin like a top on the table chances are that it is junk. check valves for free movement and look at pressure gauge hole for rust/clogging same with rocker hole if it has one

you will tell if its been run dry, the bottom will be bowed like a bowl shape, and the gasket will be dry rotten or cracking if its no good..

honestly i'd get the small one as well, its perfect for agar, and LC work when you get into it
I have the 2 pictured, as well as a small 4 quart one that i use for all my agar, and LC, and even when I do 1/2 pint jars for GLC's

There are no rocker or weights I saw in the pics make sure they have the right weight for the model.
Correction I see one in the first pic inside the PC to the right. Its most likely a 10 PSI canner.

Ask to see pics of the rocker weights, that one looks like the handle might be broken off which means it might mess with the pressure or rocking from the missing weight on the top.

the presto 16 quart does not have a rocker, all it has is a valve that releases the pressure.
the guage goes upto 20 PSI before going into the danger zone..

I plan on testing my luck with the last 1cc I'll have left of my syringe so I don't have to wait for the fruits and make a spore syringe. Using this tek

I've only ordered one syringe so my plan is to use 9cc (1cc per jar) and use the last 1cc to make LC so I get start colonizing more jars a week later. Does that sound flawed? I have no experience, but it seems logical.
If I had 1cc left I would noc a grain jar like this and then make 10 more grain jars. http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/11533629#11533629 Especially if I had a working PC.Quote:

What is the big open hole above the pressure gauge for then?

there's the valve, then the center of the lid has a blow off valve, incase you let PSI get too high
and on the other side is where the pressure release valve is, thats what the black knob in the pc goes, it sits on and twists, closed and when you turn it it releases pressure..
