PRESSURE CANNING (Continued)
7. After reading the Owner’s Manual, put the lid on the base and lock
in place. Plug the unit into the wall outlet.
8. Press the “canning” button, the Pressure Cooker will default to 20 minutes.
To change pressure time, press the “time” button then adjust accordingly.
9. When the canning process is complete, the unit will shut off. Press the
Pressure Release Button to release the pressure. Once all the steam has
escaped, carefully remove the lid.
10. Using canning tongs, remove the hot jars and place them on a heat
resistant surface and allow to cool to room temperature.
11. When jars are thoroughly cool, remove the screw bands. The lids should
be tightly sealed to the jars and when pressed in the center they should not
have any “give” or springing motion. If they do, you cannot safely store this
food for future use. It must be reprocessed immediately or refrigerated and
used within a few days.
12. Place the finished jars on shelves in a cool, clean, dry atmosphere. Properly
processed food will last for months and seasons. Jars, lids and screw bands
are reusable. Check all carefully for damage before reuse.
IMPORTANT: It is not recommended to use the NuWave Nutri-Pot
®
Digital
Pressure Cooker as a canning device at altitudes of 2,000 feet above sea level
or higher.
5. Place the Inner Pot in the base unit. Then put the Wire Rack in the bottom
of the Inner Pot. Place Filled, sealed Jars on Rack. Unit will hold up to four
individual 16-oz. jars (maximum).
6. Pour hot water over the jars and into
the Inner Pot until the water level
reaches 1/4 of the way up the sides
of the jars. For four individual 16-oz
cans, this would be about 6 cups of
water. When processing fewer jars,
more water would be needed.
