I wouldn't stack them if I was using the boiling tek as opposed to the Pressure cooker.

I'd say that's the biggest link between the contam'ing jars and it needs eliminated.  Only boil as many jars as you can fit in the pan without stacking.  I run three pans on my stove with 8 jars in each when I'm boiling so that I don't have to stack.  The water that runs half way up the jars helps maintain a high temperature in the jars (granted the steam does too), but I would think that the water does moreso.

IMO no steam = not hot enough.

you should have small amount of steam coming out of the pot.

:thumbup:  Sam's right IMO.

Should be noticeable boiling going on in your pan as well, just not a mad splashing.  Enough for a light boil.  I usually leave an ever so small gap in between the lid of my pan and the pan to let out some of the steam.  Too much steam = condensation = possible leaking into substrate.
