Crappy Situation with my pressure cooker
    #14237139 - 04/04/11 04:22 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Well the other day I was preparing some WBS Jars. I recently moved into a new place and apparently my stove is on crack because when I checked  out my pressure cooker and jars the next day when it was all cooled off, the bottom of my pressure cooker was rounded out. The stove top coil burner thing is slightly concave so the pressure cooker took that form. I opened it up and all of my jar lids (I was doing the self healing lid tek) had completely melted. I have never seen or heard of this. I'm pretty sure my pressure cooker is unsafe to use now. By the way it is a Presto 23-qt pressure cooker and I was keeping it running at 15psi like normal.

My question is: Has anyone heard of this happening and is my pressure cooker safe to use?

if it still had water in it, it is unsafe. The other option is you boiled all of the water out, and you may still be able to use it

Yeah It still had a little bit of water in the bottom, but why would that make it unsafe?

because that means the pressure must have got sky-high in there to get the steam hot enough to melt the rtv. You used rtv on the lids, didn't you? water boils at 220 at normal air-pressure. By raising the pressure, you raise the boiling point of water. That's how a pc works. If you run all of the water out, however, the metal can just heat up to a super high temp. In order to melt rtv, it had to get to 400f, and if there was water in the pan that would equal 90psi. With no water, 400 is nothing to heat the pc up to
