pressure cooker help
    #22390108 - 10/16/15 07:38 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

I'm getting a pressure cooker, and I'm having a couple of concerns. Now from everything I read, I want to get one that can reach 15 psi. But I'm limited on funds and really don't want to have to spend 100$+ on a pressure cooker. I can get an 8-qrt pressure cooker for 39.99$ right now at a local store but it only goes to 10 psi, could I still use this but increase my cook time? I'm doing the BRF tek if that helps with the answer!

I looked at that one and anywhere I look its 130$+
I'd like to keep the cost as low as I can!

It drives me nuts that not all pressure cookers on sites say exactly what PSI it can reach. This is one I can order, it has multiple weights as you can see, but can you tell if it goes to 15psi? or are they just 5 and 10 psi?

http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/philippe-richard-aluminum-pressure-cooker-8-qt-75-litres/6000187966402


And thats walmart.com which is american, so the CAD - USD rate would make it more expensive plus shipping, I don't think walmart US ships to canada for free

Wait, you're doing pf tek with brf? You don't even need a pressure cooker, then. When you do invest in one for bulk/different growing methods, the 23qt works well.





Definitely use a pressure cooker....always

Yes pressure cookers are by far superior...that being said, you can steam sterilize brf jars for pf tek.

Key word being need. The point of pf tek is for newbies to start minimally. :facepalm: I'm definitely an advocate of pressure cookers, I would even suggest skipping pf tek and going straight to bulk, but many, many people are successful with pf tek without the PC. Am I incorrect in thinking that it was commonly accepted knowledge that you don't NEED a PC for pf tek?




Im with you 100% on skipping pf tek and going straight to bulk. I wish I would've. I learned far more from my first bulk grow than any pf tek grow before it. You are definitely right you can do it without pc, I just never trusted steaming them.:rockon:

Since you can do it without a pressure cooker, would using a pressure cooker thats only 10 psi increase my chances of success or would it be better to sterilize a different way?

Any pressure cooker trumps steaming.

Ten psi is perfect for brf cakes.

I would. Keep check craigslist. I got my 25x sterilizer for 80$.

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

Keep an eye on ebay and kijiji to see if you can score a used one. Canning season is ending and people could be deciding that it was too much trouble for jam and getting rid of them.

I just went through this myself, went to every store in my area and could not find anything over 8 qts.  Heck I even called the chef supply place and they had nothing.  I think we have those two POS brothers to thank for that.  I too wanted to stay in the $100 range but after mulling it over for a bit I decided to implement the "buy once, cry once"  motto and ended up getting an All American 925.  It should last a few generations down the line.  Safety wise I don't know if I trust a cheapo brand cooker, if Wang Cheung was having a bad case of the Mondays while building it in China all I need is the cooker trying to hold 15 psi for an hour in my tiny kitchen.
