looks good for starting out. i got a similar one on clearance for 30 bucks at jc penny and it works great. only holds 7 jars tho so is more time consuming if u doing bulk. i just pc 7 at a time for about 1 1/2 hours, put those jars aside when done and start the next batch. then i wait 24 hours after the last batch and noc em all up at once.
happy growing!

The 23qt is taller and holds aother 3 qt jars which fit by laying them on there side on top of the 7 jars that sit up right where the 16qt only holds the 7 qt jars that stand up right.

I would suggest cooking for atleast 2 hours. I have seen a significant increase in success rate since upping my pc times from 90 minutes.

Got the 23qt Mirro for 65$. Has been fine thus far.
I saw a 16qt that held around 6 or 7 qt jars, while my 23qt only holds 9. Given how huge and awkward it is on my stove, I realize I didn't need it.
Being able to throw extra small jars or agar plates into the extra space is nice though. It's all kind of a wash.

I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister. I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave. I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent. Triggered yet? Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."
No, this does not look right...

You should be able to lay 3 qt jars across the top of the standing 7 for 10 total. I dunno if that mirro has some part of the lid that obstructs the 10th jar, but I know the 23qt presto and 21.5 qt AA921 can fit 10 this way.

Believe me, I tried. Just won't quite get that 3rd jar up top. Maybe I should try narrow mouth quarts.
It will actually fit 3 of some plastic quarts up there. 8 of some plastic twisttop quarts total. Seems pretty legit since those things are fatties.
I just fill the space with agar/pint plastics/other culturing tools.

Narrow mouth qt jars are a little bit taller than the wide mouth. So if the standing 7 are narrow qts you will have even less space up top.

I meant just for the top shelf, and probably only one up there.
It seemed like a <- configuration was the closest, and the narrow mouth might be able to sneak between the thighs of there. If I recall the lid of the widemouth was catching on the shoulders of the other two widemouths.

I hate the effing WallyWorld PCs. Used mine and then returned it, claimed it wasn't sealing properly. 
I bought a 'vintage' All American from eBay and I love it. Ugly big beast big I love the pressure gauge and metal-on-metal construction (no gasket).
