    As a Boy Scout I learned that if you coat your pans with a thin layer of dish soap before cooking the carbon will not build up on the outside of that pan. The small amount you get will come off much easier as the soap does not let it adhere to the pan.

    I have an All-American like yours, John. I don't know if yours came with a manual or not, but just a couple of tips--rub either some Vaseline or olive oil along the beveled rim of the pot before you put the lid on (gives a good seal), and when you tighten the lugs you tighten two at a time across from each other, then go back and check them the same way to make sure they are all tightened down. At least that's what the manual says, and I don't take any chances with pressure canning (grin).

    Wipe a little dish soap around the bottom and sides before you put it on the fire. It will wipe off a lot cleaner and easy! Use to do that when I went camping years ago.

    Mr. JNull -- what a GREAT "research" video for all the prepper / homesteaders out there. I've been looking at those rocket stoves for just this purpose. Thank you so much for trying this out and taking us along.

    If you have a presto canner with the pressure gauge you need to monitor... swap out the giggler for a weighted giggler. The regulator the canner comes with requires you to be able to adjust the temp... the pre weighted regulators are WAYYY more forgiving. (I set mine up to be a 12lb weight by adding a couple washers onto the 10lb weight so it is the perfect adjustment for my altitude... it jiggles from 12- 13lbs and works awesome.) Thanks so much for the vid J... I have always wondered if this was possible.

Thanks Bud - keep them coming. By the way - thanks to your videos, I will be ordering a Silverfire Rocket Stove - I think that the Silverfire folks should kick you back a few Schekels!!!

    Hey buddy, thanks for the entertaining youtube. We are into the country life as well.
    Before I use a pan for wood fire cooking I coat the bottom side of the pan with a thin layer of liquid soap: dawn work very well and greatly reduces the clean up time.

    Canning an average of 1,000 jars per year we found various ways to solve problems we've had. Any cookware besides cast iron used on an open flame you can line the bottom with double heavy duty foil to save some elbow grease. I was also impressed with Buckrun11's suggestion to use soap will have to give that a try.
    Have to go getting ready to start deer season after I finish my Kangaroo burger.
    Thanks for a great video.

    Great video, John. You covered the one thing, I'd wondered about with the SilverFire Survivor -- pressure canning. Thought it would work with an adjustable weight regulator, without any problems. (There is one available for Presto canners, too.) Glad to know, for sure!
    Congratulations on receiving an All American. Big thank you to the person who sent it. Can't have too much canning equipment, when the need arrives.
    Like your magnet idea! Perhaps SilverFire will add one with a future upgrade.
    John, a suggestion. Instead of moving the canner, under pressure, use a trowel, ash shovel, or something similar to rake out the embers when the processing time ends. Several reasons.
    (1) Fully loaded canner is heavy. At least it is for old folks, like me. Risk too high that I'd drop it. If that regulator comes off, the sudden release of steam can cause really serious burns.
    (2) Heat up, exhausting, and cool down times are all in the calculation for processing under pressure time. While there is some allowance for variables, don't want to cool down the canner to quickly and throw off those calculations. Not only from a safe product standpoint. Potential for too quick cool down to cause contents of jars to overflow, preventing sealing.
    When canning outdoors in cold weather or when the wind is high, recommend removing the jars and setting in a towel lined cooler. If the glass cools too quickly can induce stress points. Can crack the jars immediately or cause them to crack with the next use, for example.
    Re: Soot - Use old rags, newspaper and the like to remove loose soot. Soot stains are almost impossible to remove from towels, counter tops and other places where stains are a problem. Next, I don't worry about soot stains on the outside of pots used over a fire. I know that some people like to keep them nice and shiny. But it doesn't hurt anything to let the metal darken with use. Similar to seasoning cast iron and carbon steel cookware. -- Just wipe off ALL the loose soot, then wash & dry as usual. No need to use steel wool, elbow grease, or harsh chemicals, over & over again, to hold these stains at bay.
    In closing, with my last question answered, plan to order the SilverFire Survivor today. Like the Hunter, very much & may order in the future, when budget allows. However, the Survivor best suits my needs at this time, because it is side feed. Thank you very much for helping me to make that decision. God Bless.

    you mentioned this in your give away video earlier today or yesterday and I had been wondering about pressure canning on fire so I had to watch. An old camping trick is to rub soap on the pan before putting it on the fire. We always used a bar of ivory because it's what we took camping and what catfish will hit but I think just about any would work

    Terrific video! We are learning how to live off grid if necessary. I noticed that you didn't seem to have any problem with keeping the steam pressure at 10 pounds. Did the unit produce too much heat and have your pressure drift past the 10 pound mark? I get that more fuel makes more heat. What do you do to slow down the burn.thanksMcD

    Hi John, After I saw this video for the first time (and I have watched it SEVERAL times now), I knew I just had to have Survivor rocket stove. My husband bought me one for Christmas and I used it today for the first time to make some eggs for breakfast. It was awesome! I could not be happier with it. It is very efficient. And I will be canning on it eventually. I now just need to track down a fuel source since I live outside of Phoenix where there are not many trees and nearly no yard litter. Thanks for making this video!! I should have made a video response to you but I am too shy.

  • @akfredward3863
    @akfredward3863 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey John. I use my camping pans and pots a lot. What I do is when they are clean I will take and rub a thin layer of dish soap on them. "The part that will come in contact with the fire." Yes they get totally black and nasty looking but it will just wash right off. I would not hessitate if needed to grab one of me camp pans and use it in my home they are just as clean as the one I have in the house. I am going to have to look into getting one of those Silver Fire Stoves.

    My friend John I don't have any videos up yet for you to watch. And I may do one to show you what I'm talking about. Old trick I used to show my boy Scout troop when I was a Boy Scout leader. If you wipe any kind of dishwashing liquid on the bottom and around the sides of your pot. And let it dry for a couple of minutes not dish soap it must be pure dishwashing liquid when you wash your pot in the sink the black will wash right off. Because it sticks to the dishwashing liquid that is dry God, bless you my friend

  • @SJPrepper0569
    @SJPrepper0569 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The only caution I'd like to make is your pressure canner had the weight on it which is designed to give of excess pressure once it hits the weighted designated pressure with my canner which is a presto my weight does not give off excess pressure instead I regulate how high or low the pressure is by turning up and down my heat source. For folks with similar canners this might be dangerous it does encourage one to change canners so canning like that can be an option. Great video thanks so much jnull...

    • @oldtimerlee8820
      @oldtimerlee8820 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      SJPrepper0569 You can order an adjustable weight for Presto canners. Configured to set it at 5 lbs, 10 lbs, & 15 lbs. Works great. If memory serves paid about $10 for mine. For the ease of use of the canner, it's worth 10 times that over a canning season.
      Suspect the same thing can be done with a dial gauge canner. First practicing a few times by canning water. (Good use for empty jars between refills.) Appears that by adding/removing sticks of wood would be equivalent to turning a dial. No not as convenient. Takes more skill, as does baking biscuits on a campfire. Thus, practice needed before attempting actual canning. And, this definitely isn't a "Set It & Forget It".
      Thumbs up on noting the caution, especially to those just learning to can. Hope everyone with a Presto will order the adjustable weight. Especially if they plan to use wood fire, regardless of the type stove used.

    Wow, that stove looks like it burns efficiently! I must get my Super Dragon into action! I enjoy pressure cooking on a gas stove - even though I nervously watch it. I don't know if I would have the nerve to pressure cook on one of these. Were you able to maintain a consistent pressure throughout that whole time, or did it vary up and down some?

  • @OldProudVeteran
    @OldProudVeteran 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    good stuff John, I was wondering about that if you could can over a fire and not cut the heat back on it. I run two canners at once so that adds up on bills.
    Thanks, stay safe, prepare

    • @sonofeloah
      @sonofeloah 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you have a washer barrel fire pit with grills on top, then yes, you can run two pressure canners at once. Takes more wood, but can be done. Hot water bath canning works better that way and especially if you are doing a lot of jars.
      Two rocket stoves would be better for two pressure canners. Use less wood and can get them both going at once so the timing is easy to maintain. And one does not need a commercially made rocket stove. Even concrete block rocket stove will serve you just fine. There are enough DIY rocket stoves here on youtube to choose from and they all are pretty inexpensive up to welded high tech expensive ones. Find what fits your budget and get cooking!

    @Bozonez3m 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ok here's a little trick I learned to keep your pots from sooting up. Or I should say to make them ez to clean. Wipe the outside with dish soap before putting a fire to it. It makes clean up a snap. And you'll have nice shiny pots and pans. Either that or have stuff you use over a fire ,and stuff that stays in the house.

    Any clue how much weight the stove can hold? canners can be VERY heavy. I would also be a little scared of the change of temp as you take the jar out. The extreme might make the jar burst.

    • @yoyoglock4
      @yoyoglock4 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      When I bought mine, I was happy with how sturdy it appeared. I weigh a bit over 200lbs and sat on it like a stool and it held my weight just fine. The only thing I would suggest, would be make sure everything is level and maybe have some sort of support to prevent tipping if you had a full heavy canner on top.

    • @yoyoglock4

    canning out side when its cold like that seems kind of smart. the cold would make cool faster.

    To get the black carbon to come right off your beautiful American pressure canner, just crumple up some aluminum foil and make a past of cleanser or baking soda or just use dish liquid and scrub off. It does not take a lot of scrubbing. I've also had great results with just water and aluminum foil:-).

    coating your pots with liquid dish soap before fire cooking, does not stop the black. just makes clean up super eash to remove the black. god bless

    what size pressure cooker did you use? A 25 qt is about 13 inches in diameter. is that too big for the Silverfire stove?

      I used a 15.5 quart in this video. I don't think the 25 quart would be too big, but it would take more time I think............................J

    When my boys were in scouts we used Dawn liquid dish soap. I don’t know if other brands worked as well.

    Not sure of anyone has commented but if you put a thin layer of liquid dish soap on the pot before you put it on the fire the soot will come right off.
