Prestos work fine just take care of the seal and replace it when needed.
i'd personally just get the biggest one possible and eventually youll likely be glad you did.

And then later on if you really want and are willing to spend the cash you can upgrade to an AA (all american).

Yupppppp. That was my first PC. still use it to this day. Works great.

Just make sure you have enough water when cooking, and watch about sliding it across hard surfaces because it may scratch the bottom.

Edit: actually my first PC was the 23qt presto. If a 16qt is all you can get, it'll work fine.

Then I would recommend looking else where.  If you want to get serious then you should get a bigger one.  Double in size at the very least.

If you pick up the hobby fast you may find yourself needing more PC space when doing bulk grows.  Quart jars and spawn bags will fill up a PC easily.

This is the guy I'm talking about with the small ass PC.
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showprofile.php?User=300678

A big ass 200-400 dollar Pc isn't necessary, but I agree it helps.
If youre on a tight budget, your money would be spent better elsewhere.

I just scratched the CRAP put of my wooden kitchen table a couple days ago with mine... :facepalm:  but it's my first PC as well and I love it.

True.  Investing in agar supplies as soon as you got a few MS grows is a smart move.

I have a couple of the link op posted. unless they're mishandled they will last. Now that I've got a massive PC I still use the presto for those times when I have a few extra jars or for boiling water in for foomans wbs tek OR for boiling water for bucket tek'ing. One got broken cause I let someone handle it and then dropped the lid in the sink and bent it slightly, making the seal weak and fail at pressure. Now it's a $70 pot. :lmao:

I have two 16qt prestos, I started off with just one. I can't stand trying to cram more than 1 cook into my schedule at a time which is why I ended up getting a second pc. I would rather spread my work out throughout the week. If I need to up my spawn production, I will go bigger. Fuck those all night cook sessions, I have done enough of those to last me a lifetime.
