would this work instead of PCing jars
    #7948260 - 01/28/08 10:44 PM (16 years, 4 days ago)

i was reading the manual for my PCer and it says the inside of the pressure cooker reaches about 260 degrees at 15 psi. so i was wonderinf if it would be possable to just put the jars in the oven at 260 degrees for 90 minutes instead. im not sure if placing them in a pan of water would help. any suggestions or personal experience would be much aprciated. i am doin WBS jars btw.

No real knowledge on the subject but I feel it would throw off the moisture content in the substrate due to evaporation threw the filter.

Just my 2 cents

Nope.

water boils at 212F (sea lvl.) .. as would your water in the oven.

Water under 15 psi of pressure, doesn't boil until 265F (sea lvl)

No, and it's been covered before. An oven heats whatever's in it through hot air, which transfers heat very inefficiently. There's no commonly available alternative to pressure cookers except for PF jars.

Exactly!

You didn't tell us, what "jars" you actually mean.
If you try to the PF tek it's enough to sterilize them in a normal pod (using a compartment) for 1.5 hours (less would be OK also I guess, but I wanted to be sure in the past :smile: )

Use this vid to guide you, when you're trying to use the PF tek:
