IS IT TRUE? - pc/steamer question
    #8027077 - 02/15/08 12:21 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

that the reason for cooling jars in the steamer/pressure cooker/pot is so that contaminated air doesn't get sucked into the jars?

yes. I usually pull mine out about 20 mins after the pc drops to zero psi. Sometimes I will open the lid but leave it on 1/2 way just to speed up the cooling a bit.

Now letting them cool in the pc was developed back in the day when people were using jars with the metal lids on upside down so that they did not seal. The jars suck in air as the cool.
With the tyvek/polyfill filters in the lids it is not as important but only if you are 100% sure that you filter on your jar is affective.

back in the day some people would put an alcohol soaked rag over the vent on the pc so it would sterilize the air getting sucked back into the pc

Um if you are confident that your filter is 100%. I do not trust micropore tape as filter.
Rushing along is one of the main factors that newbs screw up.

This is what I do. It works for me because I am confindent of my filters. Let the pc drop to zero,wait 15-20minutes, open lid but do not remove but do leave a 1-2 inch opening to speed it up, wait another 10-15 mins. They are still hot enough to burn my fingers when I pull them out.

Why not leave them in the cooker over night or several hours. Basically until the jars are going to be cool. Its not like you can shoot them up while they are hot anyway. I guess if you have more to cook there would be a reason to take them out while they are still hot but in general i feel like you might as well leave them in a sterile area until you can actually do something with them anyway... Just my 2cents.

Once you trust your filters, this becomes much less important.

I agree.

N00bs, on the other hand, should take every precaution and also, practice their patience skills.

I asked this question because I want to make PF half pint jars every 2 hours for a day. Like cook -> put on baking gloves -> remove -> reload -> recook.
