Sideways jars in pc

I have a 23 qt PC. Does it hurt anything to lay my WBS quarts sideways on the top to fit a few more in at a time

I usually try to keep the filter as high as possible depending on your layout of your lid when going sideways.

No, that's 14-1/2 qt sterilizer. But I take out the inner "bucket/liner" so I can fit 10 quarts in it. 7 standing up & 3 on their sides. The PC next to it is a 30 quart PC (AA 930), which holds 14 quarts all standing upright.

So there is no issues around removing the inner liner? I would be able to fit a fuckload at a time if I did that, but I wasn't sure if it was a good idea.

Yup, just make sure to take off the tube that comes from the toggle valve before running it. Mine is so old that I had to just tear it off with some pliers.

I did kind of wonder what the point of that tube was to begin with.

You can't fit 10 Qts in a AA 1915x sterilizer. You can in a AA 1925x. i have both.

Yea, that's what I said. my 25x fits 10. You can fit 10 in a 50x as well, since they're the same size.

NO no no. Take a rubber band and tie it up so that the tube is at the top under the lid. When you want to run it as a sterilizer, just take the rubber band off and slide the tube down into the basket slot.
That's the way I've been doing it for years and it works fine.

I beg to differ.
