Hi Nancy! I have a question. I've got two canners a 12 qt and a 22 qt. the 12 qt. works fine, but the 22 qt (same brand only taller), I can't seem to get the jiggler to jiggle properly, It'll get up to pressure (after venting) but then the jiggler instead of gently "dancing" a little, will go bonkers for a few seconds then stop, then about 5 minutes will go bonkers again, can you help me?

@rhovannion google it under the brand name and troubleshooting, it may be fine, or it may be wrong. You have 10lbs pressure on it?

Hello again Nancy :) it's me, your friend Armin. My wife and I were both doing some canning today, just simple tomato sauce. I came across your video and it's very nie! Just got our first pressure canner but we used it as a water bath for tomatoes which are acid... Tomorrow it's gonna be pears and the beans are already in the freezer...

I noticed you forgot to add 2 Tbs vinegar to your canning water, that will automatically clean your canner and clean the venting tubes...

Happy canning!

Cheers!
