It is a mirromatic 5 quart. Bought it for 6 bucks, but it has no weight. Any hack ideas?

Shove something like a twig in the hole and make sure the stove don't get to hot or... "pop".

lol an explosion waiting to happen on my stove is not something i modify with sticks.
if you find out the weight of the rocker you might find a spare one at a antique store(in the random metal junk bin. ive seen presto ones before..might get lucky)

I'd just spend the $10-15 on ebay. No need to blow ones stove or someone up. But I have also seen the wreckage from after a pressure vessel failed due to poor care and improper repairs. ( small boiler took out half a hotel)

I had to do this over 20 times with my aa921. Yeah op if your pressure pot don't have a working gauge I would not recommend using the twig hack.

Yep I can just imagine this twig piercing through the roof. That would cost much more than a replacement weight..

i said a twig being propelled by 15psi
i didnt say anything about a PC. only the speed at which a twig would travel would be enough to kill you.

Oh... i thought it was implied since wtfcrazymofo was speaking about shoving a twig in the PC
But also a twig being propelled by 15psi wont kill you... maybe if it go shot direcly though your noise to your brain then yes...

Yeah I'm just saying I have done it before, but I had a gauge to watch, and A stove to adjust. The twig did not pop out, and I got some shrooms . I got a weight soon after though because of the obvious dangers and excessive babysitting required. The worse that can happen with an AA is you can lose the rubber safety insert.

I have another mirromatic... same model. After one is done with it's hour cooking, I throw the weight on the other and it's going. The other does have a lot of gas escaping but it's already had it's hour with the jars so I figured it's fine. This is only slightly more efficient than one 5 quart really. Second cooker is going while the other does it's several hours of cooling.
I'm going to buy another pc off craigslist. 5 quarts go for at least 10 bucks. I have thirty jars prepped for pcing. I want to cut down on time. I'm not a fan of waiting by the stove. I'll post pictures when I can.
