OMG, THANK YOU!!!

I had no idea there was an induction compatible pressure canner in existence yet! This is going to make my canning life infinitely easier and better! It’s so easy to keep a specific temperature with induction without having to babysit the canner like you have to with all other forms of cooking.

I also bought, from one of their vendors, (Walmart wanted $33), the 3 piece pressure regulator with it for only $13. This is what allows you not to have to sit around watching the dial. The 5, 10, and 15 lb. individual weights make it easy to just listen for the jiggling to tell you it’s up to pressure.

For anyone with the 1 piece pressure regulator who want the much better optional one, it’s part #50332. Well worth it and along with the new induction ready option I’d rather have it than a free deluxe tank of a canner.

No can do: Pandemic canning trend causing shortage of lids and jars for home gardeners

- Canning Lids & Jars

[link to www.wate.com (secure)]
 Quoting: Guythu


I think they are full of shit on the canning supplies being short due to high demand. While most suburbanites will hit the local Cosco and stock up. I find it extremely hard that millions have turned their back yards into gardens. There's no shortage of books on canning, because they have all been canning for years. There's no shortage of pressure canners because everyone always had a pressure canner on the shelf.
 Quoting: Nefarious Libertine


It’s the metal parts that are probably the worst of the problem. I don’t bother with any jars under a quart and it’s hard to shop them from home because of high shipping costs. I’ve been lucky to find some from grocery home delivery but only the originals and only once. The wide mouth beginner jars are always out.
 Quoting: sos


I got my jars and lids from uline.com

Prices are up, but they are available for delivery.

Canning supplies is one of the preps I purchased back in March and I'm glad I did. There are no lids to be found it seems in my area and my friends can't get their normal canning done like they do every year.
 Quoting: dyin


Yah. It is a rough one. And I can’t figure out the kink. Because like Nef said.... canning books aren’t in shortage.

But we also don’t know how many bought kindle versions of those books.... these folks might have solar and not be worried about electronics.
 Quoting: CleverCreator


ULINE has jars, lids. ULINE.COM, pricing is better on higher quantities but since I was getting other things shipped from them the cost of the jars and lids of the 36 I bought was maybe $2.00 more than it would have been from Amazon with prime free shipping.

I bought spices and sugar in bulk and am using them for storing those. ULINE has those packets of moisture absorent stuff in huge and tiny sizes, that's how I also fo3out they sell canning jars and other long term food grade storage containers.
 Quoting: abzzybee


Yah. I should know better. I always have uline catalogs laying around.

 Quoting: CleverCreator


I just looked things up and you won’t need a 14” induction hub. Mine is a little over 10” and works great with my 28 qt pressure cooker so should work fine with the same sized pressure canner.

I bought mine, a Volrath, at Webstaurant store 10 years ago. They will help you pick one to suit your needs. Induction cooking won’t heat up your home, is energy efficient, and Since mine is portable and only weighs about 6 or 7 pounds I can cook anywhere.

Fully loaded, hot pressure canners can be very heavy. It will be nice to just do it on the floor, lol.

Also, you can use your pressure canner to pressure cook! You can even stack things in pans and pressure cook a three course meal at once if you want to. They are big, though, so take up some space.

Thanks for the advice. I canned via hot water bath for jars and lids. Never the whole complete jar. So this is new. And the method I used was passed down over a minimum of 6 generations.

I was blessed to watch my great grandparents as a kid .... while I didn’t take notes, I can still see everything they did. The first time that I did my own canning was from those memories. I used a recipe for the making of the sweet pickles, but actual canning..... straight from memory.

City folks....water can become an issue overnight for many reasons. Just make sure you are ready for it. Food is great. But water is essential.

**bastecat**

You are loved. I am sorry for whatever is going on. Hang in there!
 Quoting: CleverCreator


This is why I'm currently looking to buy a second house with a well (and fireplace)

Get me the fuck off the city dependent water. Ever since Flint happened I will never trust City water ever.
 Quoting: dyin


I have a well and a fireplace and wouldn’t recommend them as worth moving for at all.

Fireplaces take out more heat than they’ll give you and well water is as iffy as city water. For $600 you can get a good s/s distiller.
 Quoting: sos


Fireplace, well, and septic makes it very easy to drop off the grid if SHTF, especially if you've made alternate arrangements to power your well pump.

If you have just a standard fireplace, then it is definitely inefficient and a lot of heat does indeed escape up the chimney. However, if you have a wood stove or an efficient fireplace insert much more heat gets reflected back inside than goes up the chimney. Around five years ago when we had the "polar vortex" cold snap where it was -20 ambient temperature outside plus wind chill, we lost power for three days. Our new insert was barely a week old at that time, and we were able to heat our entire house with just the fireplace for those three days. The firebrick gets so hot that we can actually let the fire die down and it will continue to put out heat for several more hours.

As for well water, we have a decent filtration system in the house, but even without it, I never have to worry about my water source being contaminated due to deliberate acts of terrorism, accidents, or sheer incompetence. I do keep 90 days of potable water on hand just in case, but if my water ever becomes so contaminated that it is undrinkable, we have much bigger life-threatening problems going on.

When we were hunting for out first house to buy, I told Raffette that a basement, wood-burning fireplace, and well/septic were requirements I would not negotiate.

Given the state of the world, I would never under any circumstances move into a house that did not have those specifications.

Which again takes us back to.... we need daily testing to get it sooner.

I apologize....I will continue to point out the flaws because tooooo much excitement and it gets tested..... sure it works, but oh look we can’t test in time or enough virus still escapes to other places or a person was a mouth breather or it got in through the ear canal..... or STD.

It’s a coronavirus Asshole. No, I don’t want them to give up, but they have had plenty of time to develop antivirals .... knowing that Mers and Sars could ride again, but here we are..... and I see kitchen sinks ....

And yes, they should keep trying. But perspective...... it took decades to get hiv under control.

Off-topic and posting here because most of the Kenosha threads seem to be gone:

The feds are preventing online streaming of police/fire radio traffic from Kenosha. No longer able to monitor the situation via broadcastify. This is straight from my relative in Kenosha who is in a position to know these things. She also told me a few days ago that the police chief and the mayor were no longer calling the shots, but she didn't know who was.

City folks....water can become an issue overnight for many reasons. Just make sure you are ready for it. Food is great. But water is essential.

**bastecat**

You are loved. I am sorry for whatever is going on. Hang in there!
 Quoting: CleverCreator


This is why I'm currently looking to buy a second house with a well (and fireplace)

Get me the fuck off the city dependent water. Ever since Flint happened I will never trust City water ever.
 Quoting: dyin


I have a well and a fireplace and wouldn’t recommend them as worth moving for at all.

Fireplaces take out more heat than they’ll give you and well water is as iffy as city water. For $600 you can get a good s/s distiller.
 Quoting: sos


Fireplace, well, and septic makes it very easy to drop off the grid if SHTF, especially if you've made alternate arrangements to power your well pump.

If you have just a standard fireplace, then it is definitely inefficient and a lot of heat does indeed escape up the chimney. However, if you have a wood stove or an efficient fireplace insert much more heat gets reflected back inside than goes up the chimney. Around five years ago when we had the "polar vortex" cold snap where it was -20 ambient temperature outside plus wind chill, we lost power for three days. Our new insert was barely a week old at that time, and we were able to heat our entire house with just the fireplace for those three days. The firebrick gets so hot that we can actually let the fire die down and it will continue to put out heat for several more hours.

As for well water, we have a decent filtration system in the house, but even without it, I never have to worry about my water source being contaminated due to deliberate acts of terrorism, accidents, or sheer incompetence. I do keep 90 days of potable water on hand just in case, but if my water ever becomes so contaminated that it is undrinkable, we have much bigger life-threatening problems going on.

When we were hunting for out first house to buy, I told Raffette that a basement, wood-burning fireplace, and well/septic were requirements I would not negotiate.

Given the state of the world, I would never under any circumstances move into a house that did not have those specifications.
 Quoting: Riff-Raff


Riff-Raff I bought a thick s/s thing in the fireplace that’s supposed to send heat back into the room. Is there a type of fireplace insert that does’t require expensive chimney liners?

My well is way too deep to work without power but I have year round running creek I can get water from. I do have the well’s holding tank in the crawl space but don’t know how to get to that water. I think it’s under pressure. Do you if there is a way to get to it in an emergency that won’t ruin the system?

I don't know if this falls under hopium, kitchen sink, or a might be.I DO know Texas Tech has a lot of researchers on staff and they have great programs.

If y'all have already discussed this, please don't eat the messanger! LoL
 Quoting: Texan Buckeye


That ones new. And a few new ones are promising.... I just am concerned that they are focused on nasal and lungs. Plus many of these only work in early intervention......

The next mutation could to be the permanent asymptomatic (or longer presymptomatic) phases..... and that throws out so many of these treatments.

I want to see the work on tamping down the marrow cells. That would help reduce the cancer risk.
 Quoting: CleverCreator


If it works as they seem to expect, maybe as an effective prophylactic so that symptoms/asymptomatic becomes irrelevant,because the virus is killed before it can get a grip.
 Quoting: Leaver


Which again takes us back to.... we need daily testing to get it sooner.

I apologize....I will continue to point out the flaws because tooooo much excitement and it gets tested..... sure it works, but oh look we can’t test in time or enough virus still escapes to other places or a person was a mouth breather or it got in through the ear canal..... or STD.

It’s a coronavirus Asshole. No, I don’t want them to give up, but they have had plenty of time to develop antivirals .... knowing that Mers and Sars could ride again, but here we are..... and I see kitchen sinks ....

And yes, they should keep trying. But perspective...... it took decades to get hiv under control.

Off-topic and posting here because most of the Kenosha threads seem to be gone:

The feds are preventing online streaming of police/fire radio traffic from Kenosha. No longer able to monitor the situation via broadcastify. This is straight from my relative in Kenosha who is in a position to know these things. She also told me a few days ago that the police chief and the mayor were no longer calling the shots, but she didn't know who was.

what was wordsworth predictions again under 30k cases by September 1st well guess he failed at predictions again that's why you shouldn't predict if your not a super computer AI. Will not count the weekend if the cases are around 30k so dunce cap should be put on at the moment

(August 28, 2020) 'Without evidence': Once again, FDA expands use of COVID-19 treatment without research to back it up
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration late Friday allowed the drug remdesivir to be used on all patients
hospitalized with COVID-19, although no published research supports such widespread use.
In May, the FDA allowed remdesivir to be used for hospitalized patients who need oxygen, but not those sick enough to require ventilation.
No studies have been published since then supporting more widespread use of remdesivir, yet the FDA said the data is now compelling enough to expand its use.
The FDA announced the expanded use of remdesivir at 5:20 p.m. ET on Friday, citing two studies to support its decision. One was the study published in May.
The other, released earlier this month, found that five days of treatment with the drug was just as effective as 10,
allowing supplies of the sought-after drug to be stretched. That study was conducted by the drugmaker, Gilead Sciences Inc. of Foster City, California.
