I have the 78 model. did you use the bigger burner or smaller one. I have tested with the smaller burner and had it come to pressure. My manual says to only put 2 quarts of water. Should I add more?
I use the larger burner, that will heat the pot more evenly, and probably put stress on the stove than using the smaller burner. For shorter runs 2 quarts like the manual says should be enough. But advice from the National Center For Home Food Preservation says to add a bit more water if you are running the pot for 60-90 minutes
Ty!
You're welcome!
