Good cheapish pressure cooker?
    #5455816 - 03/29/06 04:16 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

I'm a really new grower and twice now i've lost the jars that i've made to the green/blue contamination (the name escapes me), and as far as I can tell it's either coming from when I cook the jars (I don't have a real pressuer cooker, and the pot I had really didn't seem like it was working so well)... or from when I inoculate them (all the contaminations start growing after the mycelium does, on top of it from the inoculation sites.

So either, can someone point me to a good, but cheaper pressure cooker (I'm on a pretty low budget), or can somebody give me some idea of whether it might be innoculating that's doing the contamination.

Maybe there's some way I can test the inoculation procedure?

8 quart Mirro at Wal-Mart for $35-$40. It doesn't get much cheaper unless you serious luck out on eBay.

Second that, the little Mirro jobs are inexpensive and served me very well. I still use mine for LC's.

Nice Mindseye.  Mirro are the Honda of budget pressure cookers.  My old one just got a rebuild; handle, overpressure plug, and gasket--and got put back into service.  Plan to have it for life as long as the parts are available.  There is a sense of nostalgia that comes along with these reliable little pieces of kitchen equipment.  :biggrin:

I used an 8 quart Mirro for the longest time. I finally broke down about 6 months ago and bought a 22 quart PC. You guessed it...it's a Mirro.  :grin:

I love how we're just carrying on about the Mirro PCs and the guy isn't even on line.  :cool:
