    #7680866 - 11/26/07 08:20 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

daaamn, i cooked up an assload of rye last night and now that i got around to PC'n, i've got a big problem

my PC'r seal is leaking X_X
it worked fine for the last batch

but now it's spewing steam out of one of the sides, i've tried adjusting the ring and it doesn't seem to help

is the ring supposed to be loose? because it has been since i accuired the PC'r

where the fuck do i get a new pc'r seal for an old pc'r? O_O

there's an ace hardware within walkin distance, but when i went before they weren't selling any PC'rs like mine
i'll deff check for the rings though

what i have is kinda old
it's a tiny Mirro without gauges
it only holds 3 pint jars at a time

it's shitty and takes almost an entire day to make 12 jars of rye
but it's worked in the past, and it was free (don't have the manual)

so how much do the rings usually go for?

Get some silicon oil and smother the seal with it for a few hours. You can get it at your local hobby shops and once you're done that, wipe off the excess and see if it helps.

It worked with mine, and silicon isn't expensive. Get the heavier weighted silicon though, just because it's easier to work with since it flows slowly.


That's what worked for me, but there are many other things you can use. Just make sure your oil isn't combustible.

well that's why i was asking whether or not the ring is supposed to be loose

my ring just hangs in the hinges
i was fucking around with it a min ago
and when i pushed the seal up, it seemed to slow the steam down some

so siliconing it kinda sounds like a good idea
i just want to make sure there isn't a good reason for why the ring is loose

Mineral oil is what Mirro recommends for use on their gaskets, IIRC. If the gasket gets dry, you can fatten it back up with the right oil. If the gasket gets TOO dry, it'll crack - then you'd have to find a replacement.

EDIT: Vaseline can also work well.
