Questions about pressure cooking jars
    #24895722 - 01/07/18 05:37 AM (7 years, 10 days ago)

Hello! Sorry for the possibly noobish questions, but I just really want to be sure about these things. I've never used a PC before and it seems a bit scary to me haha. I've done some successful PF tek grows before but this is my first time trying grain. I've acquired some oats since it was the easiest thing to find in my country for a cheap price and apparently it should work well.


1. My PC has only 6 liters capacity and the manual says it should never be filled more than 2/3 full. I have about 0.5L sized jars and when I put them standing up in the PC they will reach almost to the top. Is this bad? Should I put them sideways instead and are there disadvantages to doing that?

2. How much water should I put into the PC when sterilizing the jars? I read that 0.5L jars with oats should be PC'd for ~90min, how do I ensure that the water doesn't run out (apparently it's dangerous if it happens)? When making PF jars I had to add some more water into the pan once in a while since it evaporated. Does this not happen with a PC?

3. Tyvek isn't available in my country, what else can I use in the jars as a filter? My jars already have holes in their lids.


Thanks so much in advance for helping me out! :smile: If you have some additional tips for safety etc. let me know.

1. So long as you have a little room between the top of the jars and lid, like a CM, you should be fine. I have never had an issue.

2. If you read the manual and follow directions it will tell you most of that. If you adjust your temp right you should maintain pressure with little water loss.

3. 3-4 layers of paper micropore tape or poly fill stuffed in tight(the stuff in pillows).
