I feel like Ive been over sterilizing all my of jars thos whole time
    #26756044 - 06/19/20 12:40 AM (3 years, 7 months ago)

So I have PCed a lot of jars, and everything has worked out fine... but I want to do it right. How much should the rocker be rocking for 15PSI? I think I have mine rocking way too much.

The rocker keeps the pc at 15psi, if its always relieving pressure you got your heat to high. But you won't be over sterilizing your grain, mine usually rocks but its not blowing steam all over.

I start my timing at 15psi and usually ends up with 20-25psi by the end of 120mins cycle.

My PC is an old school AA that only relieves pressure @30+psi. I use a gas stove btw.

I would love to have a pc that goes up to 25psi. But 15psi isn't bad tho, our friends in Europe have to jump through hoops to get a 15psi pc.

I have this AA 21q PC for around 5yrs now, bought it 2nd hand for US$200 converted.

Seller says he's upgrading, I think he's also an edible mushroom cultivator.

Bnew 41q AA in here costs US$700 last time I checked.

To answer your question it shouldn't really be rocking at all, but only because it's loud and annoying. You certainly won't jeopardize your sterility by letting it rock.

Once it gets close to rocking (you can tell by the sound) turn the heat down low enough to stop it from rocking but high enough to maintain pressure. You'll find the sweet spot after a few cooks.

I check the pressure by gently flicking the top of the jiggle weight. If steam shoots out after you poke it, you're good.

The weight is supposed to toggle (I. E. Pop up and release stream momentarily) once a minute to maintain 15 psi.

If it's not toggling your not maintaining pressure.

LOL please don't listen to this guy. Steam should not be shooting out of the weight at all. It's not going to hurt anything if you do but its loud and annoying and entirely unnecessary.

I guess you could say in this instance that lefty is not righty 😂 YW for the ultimate dad joke

Lol bod I respect your opinion but no, it isn't. If you do it that way your jars will become sterilized, you're not going to hurt anything but that is not proper usage of a pressure cooker. Look up any tutorials of people using them for canning fruits, jams, etc and you will see no professionals advising you to have loud ass steam bursting out of the PC every minute lol that would be obnoxious.

You keep the heat so it's just about to burst, so you're at 14.9 pounds of pressure. If you're anal about being above 15 pounds, tape a couple quarters to your weight but there is not a single valid reason you should have to listen to your PC expel steam 90 times each cook.

No one said anything about loud as bursts of steam. Have you used a pressure cooker yet?

It should do this around every minute or so. No loud bursts.

Agreed, that's proper. I'm not seeing any release of steam in that video.

Because steam is invisible.
What's coming out of the cooker...............................
Fucking steam lol

You can't see steam. You can see water vapor in air

Cooker in video is already vented. All that's inside is steam. Tell me what's coming out of the cooker in the video. It's not air. It's not water vapor. It's steam. It's not loud. It's not a burst either. No one mentioned bursts our loud noises besides yourself.

Presto wants the cooker to rattle the weight the entire cook. Mycologists get it down to once a minute. Smart mycologists realize they can put a quarter on the weight and run it at 15 psi with a weight that handles 15+ so long as they don't do heroin during the cycle.

If you tell someone who is already confused about how to properly use a PC, to make the weight pop up and release steam, the poor guy is going to overheat his cooker and have it bursting non-stop.

And generally speaking steam is not invisible. If tiny amounts of invisible steam is what you are talking about then you need to be more clear with OP who's new to using a pressure cooker because he's not a psychic mind reader and he's probably going to misinterpret what you're trying to say.

I'm not entirely worried one about interpretation since I have an entire how to use your cooker for mycology tek out there

First of all OP can read a pressure cooker manual first before asking strangers on the internet. Second of all you cant overheat anything with liquid water in it anyway. Thirdly you would just run out of water, faster, if you run a pressure cooker on a overheated stove/hot plate. Which would be annoying and loud so you wouldn't anyway.

And again you're the only one that brought up loud bursts. Everyone else knows its a tsk tsk tsk gentle rattling noise.
