The Steam Canner is a revolutionary canner that saves time, energy and water and is so simple and easy to use that you will enjoy home canning for the first time! The steam canner uses only 3 pints of water and cuts preheating time by up to 50%. Eliminates heavy lifting, boil overs and messy clean-ups. This steam canner has a 7-quart capacity and its cover converts to a 15-quart kettle. The base and rack make an ideal roaster. Made of Aluminum.
The manufacturer does not recommend this canner for glass or ceramic top stoves as it does not have a flat bottom. However, our experience is that these canners work fine on "most" flat top stoves. Steam Canner Package also available.

My husband bought me this steam canner about a year ago and this is the first time I have used it. It replaces the water bath canner and Wow, I am amazed. He says it only cost around $30 and is so much easier and nicer to use that the old big kettle.
It only uses 8 cups of water as opposed to 4 gallons, so the whole process goes so much quicker. (Think about how long it takes to bring gallons of water to a boil as opposed to cups!) I bought fresh cranberries for my cranberry conserve and I made a triple recipe since the bag of cranberries from Sam's Club was 2 pounds. I figured I could just can all that won't be used for Thanksgiving. This was so easy! I never would have gotten the big canner out for such a small amount of something.
