Have fun canning. Order a Ball Blue Book for canning. Get a pressure canner. You can use your pressure canner for water bath canning also, but you cannot pressure can in the water bath canner. Do not use a ceramic top stove for pressure canner as the heat cycles on and off and does not keep the canner at the prescribed canner (according to my stove maker's directions.) I go over to my son's and use his electric stove with the rings; they give a consistent heat. Also go to your agriculture center and get every pamphlet they offer on canning, etc. You might even find out about a Homemaker's Club run by the Home Demonstration Agent. The help there is great. We need to utilize these people more as funding is being cut in any areas. Let's don't let this free service go away.
