PC question: 12 psi enough?
    #3369654 - 11/16/04 04:05 PM (19 years, 4 months ago)

The pressure cooker I bought automatically releases steam at 12 psi. I know a lot of teks(including Magash Rye Tek) suggest using 15 psi for sterilization.

Will 12 psi be sufficient if I increase the time(ie 45 minutes to 1 hour)?

I do not believe there is anyway to increase the psi with this particular PC.

Thanks in advance.

You will be fine. I suggest going a little over an hour just to be sure but it should okay to just do an hour.

Thanks.

I thought that I would be fine but wasnt certain. I know at 12 psi it raises the temperature inside by 36 degrees, which would make the water 248 degrees. Just wanted to make sure that was hot enough to kill any endospores or other bacteria. Thanks again.
