Check out Rose Red Homestead's video of Dr. Pam Cantrell's Data logger testing of the various digital electric canners. The 9.5 quart Nesco/Carey passed with flying colors. Pam's Data logger measures the temperature inside the jar during the canning process measures it every minute. Pam shows you the printed out results that show what temperature it reached and for how long. The Carey is the same company as Nesco.
I watched that one, that's what made me decide to trust the Carey and just go for it! Love that she did the science to prove it!
Just got mine! Awesome news👍
I love rose red!!!
I love my Carey!! Its sooo easy, i also have instant pot max which rose red tested that was ok also!!!
Yaaaaaaszzzz. I LOVE Rosered homestead channel.
Pam is amazing and gives me peace of mind. ❤
Thank you for the step by step instructions! This was my first time to can. I just followed everything you said. What I loved about your instruction was your relaxed personality. You didn't get all technical on me which made it easy to focus on just what needed to be done. Success my first canning experience and it was ground beef too!
Thank you for the comment and the feedback! And congrats on the success! I hope this leads to many more jars filled for a rainy or lazy day :) Also - please don't hesitate to comment ideas for new videos, I'm always happy to share what I've learned, I learn more every time!
I know you don't care about the green pressure limiting valve, but if it makes you feel any better about dropping it, you saved me some trouble. My canner arrived today and I was very excited (first time canner and I fully qualify as elderly) but could not find the green valve anywhere and I'm at about 5,000 feet, so that was going to be a problem. To make matters worse, when I called Nesco to tell them, their offices were already closed. Well, when yours hit the floor on the video I ran to take another look and voila! The green valve was stuck up there in the styrofoam. Not the greatest/smartest place for them to pack it, but all's well that ends well. So thanks for "finding" my valve, thanks for all the very helpful videos and I covet your apron.
Wow, I'm so glad my clutzy behavior helped! Wow! Thank you for the kind words, and I'm glad you found it :)
Also, thank you, I love this apron. I special ordered it from my mom at Urban Owl Embroidery in TN, and I think now she keeps them in stock
This is the only one that remains in the kill zone long enough to kill botchulism. I am a food scientist and have spoken to the man who invented the Carey which is exactly the same as the Nesco. It's also pressure cooks steam cooks and slow cooks along with canning and it is the only one I would ever recommend right now for people to use for canning.
Thank you for the additional insights!
Hmm...you're a food scientist who doesn't know how to spell botulism?! Rose Red Homestead is a scientist and she spoke to the man who invented the Carey. She also performed the tests that show that these electric canners stay in the kill zone long enough. Anyone interested should check out her channel especially if you are considering buying an electric canner.
@@kam2162 lol😂🤣
I love my Instapot Max. I just bought a this Nesco for quart jars. My IP actually let’s me know the temperature inside the canner throughout the canning process, which the Nesco doesn’t.
@@greyfox243.You need to know that why?
I just bought a Nesco canner never used one before so your video helped me a lot. Thank you. I am so looking forward to canning ground beef.
@@SandyBrown-of7kb it has entirely changed how I can. I thought I would hate the small batch aspect, but the convenience definitely outweighs that! I hope you love it as much as I do!
Also THANK YOU for your detailed videos. I have looked for detailed videos and yours are the best.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just located your channel. I was very impressed with your video. Specially, the instructions for a newbie that just bought the pressure canner which was my niece my sister and my daughter. I’ve had mine for about five weeks and I love it so they are new to it my niece was a little scared, but you explained it beautifully. Thank you so much. Looking forward to many more videos
Excellent guidance. I have yet to use mine. It arrived a few days ago.
Thank you! Glad to hear you have one now get it going lol.
Awesome Canner! I just got mine and am Binge-watching all your canning videos with the Carey Canner👍
Thank you for taking the time to teach us all of this, so that we can be better prepared and stocked up! Blessings
Congrats on the new canner! And thanks!
Congrats on the new canner! And thanks!
I have the Nesco version and I love it! I ordered another inner pot because I use it so much during canning season.
I learned about the Nesco from Rose Red Homestead here on TH-cam.
Thank you! I purchased the Nesco in October and have not used it yet since I never canned before. I plant to can ground beef this coming week! Thanks again and just subscribed!
you can do it! The electric canner makes it so easy, I can't even imagine going back to the old ones. As long as the batches are small, I can stick with this one! :)
@@homestead4life18 thank you!
I just bought a nesco and found your channel. Thank you.
Congrats! I love it, it's so much easier. Worth the small batches.
@@homestead4life18 definitely 😊
I have referred to your video several times. Thank you for posting. I have been buying clearance meat so much I have run out of room on my freezers and am doing 2 batches. Second batch will be done tonight. ❤🥩🍗
Thanks! That's the way to go, if you can. And this way you don't have to worry about electricity outages (hurricane zone here), so it's definitely a win!
@@homestead4life18 I have learned to can because of your video. I'm still doing batches of meat. Will do two more this weekend. Thanks again!
Thank you for a great video 😊. I’m looking forward to use my new pressure canner with small badges.
You are so welcome! I'm excited for you :) You can do it, just jump in!
@@homestead4life18 I actually used it today to can brats 😁.
Hey, just found your channel. Thank you for the step-by-step video. I'm subscribing & looking forward to more 🙂
Thank you! Anything in particular you want to see, I can push the topic higher on the list...
@@homestead4life18 I guess mainly preserving food, whether dehydrating, canning or using mylar vafs. Thanks!
Yes! I can do that this week, so it should be up next Monday probably :)
Mine will come out of the box this weekend !!!! Tx you
Congrats and have fun!
I am new to your channel. At first I was annoyed by your unboxing thinking you should have been prepared but then I changed my thinking as if you purchased one but it’s still sitting in the box, it’s less intimidating to watch you and see what’s in it and how to set it up. I just bought the Nesco and am excited to try it. I look forward to more canning videos. Good luck in growing your channel
Thank you :) I watched a ton of videos before buying mine - so I knew what to expect (except the extra weight popping out of the foam!) and had read the manual online, but wanted to share the excitement of just digging in! Sometimes just getting started is the biggest hurdle - so anything I can do to make that less intimidating for people is a win for me
new sub here..I love my elec canner for small batches it sets on my counter like a best friend though the winter months😂 durning the summer harvest I pull out my big gun canner's but I find this one helps when you have a 1 or 2 jars left over no need to worry about not having a full load for my stove canner
We will do the same come harvest time, we've been using the 23qt beast until getting this beautiful little guy - makes small batches so easy!
That’s what I’m going to do. My husband asked if the big boy now can be sold and I’m like NO, why would I do that? 😂
Hi I just found your channel. I'd love to see more canning videos using the Nesco Carey canner. (The only canner I know how to use!) Thank you...nice job.
Thanks! I love this new canner! Stay tuned, we'll can something else soon!
@@homestead4life18 I'm looking forward to it!
Thank you for your calmness and written instructions on the screen!!! I bought the Nesco but until seeing your video have been too afraid to use it ; ) I also would love more videos with the Nesco. I hope to rotate through my pantry, but how long would they be good for on a shelf?
The USDA says 1 year. Having forgotten that, I just ate 2+ year old chicken without issue. I recooked it well, though.
Also. Thank you, and glad to hear that! The whole process can be intimidating until you get going
That you for mentioning that it will more than likely vent during the entire process I
It's surprising the first batch and makes you think something is wrong - but it's not :)
Good delivery
Thank you! More canning videos coming in the next few weeks :)
Let us pray! I’m doing this right now!!! On the presto canner and 78 minutes to go!!!
I am sure they came out perfect!
@@homestead4life18 I think they did! All sealed
I got this last year. I ❤ it for small batches. 😊😊😊😊
Only thing to change would add 1/2" interior height so it could use regular mouth QT jars.
Ground beef of course
Ground sausage
Pot roast
Pork roast >>pulled pork
Lamb roast
Chicken breast
Chicken thighs
Turkey breast
¤¤¤ all on my shelf 💃 💃 🎉
Rock on, you are on a roll! Pot roast, hmmmmm? Pulled pork. Dang, I'd love to have those conveniently
Cooked at my fingertips - thanks!
Thank you for the informative video. I just got this same canner and am wondering if you know about how many pounds ground beef fits in 6 pints, and also 4 quarts when browned
I've found that a pint fits about 1 pound, and congrats on the new canner!
Can you tell me what temp of oven to warm them up, please
That steamer tray will let you pressure seal two layers of pints. The weight is for the thinner atmosphericpressure over 5k feet so you need more pressure higher up to compensate for sea level pressure..
Hi. Thank you for this video. it was really helpful. I followed the directions but today when I came in to wipe down and label my jars I noticed condensation in the 1" headspace area. The jars popped and sealed so they seam fine otherwise. I waited an hour after cooking to lift the lid and then I waited 10 min more before I took the jars out of the canner. Are these still ok? this is my first attempt at canning. It's pretty nerve racking!
If the lids popped, it should be fine, but if there is ever a concern, reheat to an internal temp of 212 for 10 minutes to kill any botulism spores.

How to used Nesco/Carey canner starts at 17:40.
Thank you for your vids! Question: About how much hamburger did you use with your pint jars? Or, how many pints did you actually can??
Thanks! It's roughly 1 pound per pint, and 5 pints in the canner at once.
Me realizing I never washed my seal 😅. Also me I first canned water because I didn’t trust myself with it 😂. Thank you for your videos!
I lived in Florida for a couple of years and I couldn't run fast enough to get out of there!!!
Oh no! I can't imagine living anywhere else, and I get too cold here! We are getting over populated, though. So much new development!
Thanks for tip on hard water using vinegar. How much vinegar did you use?
Just a couple tablespoons, not a whole lot :)
What all can you use this kind of hamburger for I thought of hamburger helper meals and chili need some other ideas please
Anything that involves ground beef. I'll just add it to spaghetti sauce sometimes for a quick easy meal. Or au gratin potatoes to make them sort of a casserole.
Does it make that steam noise the whole 75 minutes? Did it bother you, it seems quite invasive by the sound of the video.
I like your video instructions, thumbs up 👍
It does do that the whole time! Don't worry, you're not doing anything wrong - but don't skimp on the required water! It didn't bother me, since the beauty of this one is that I don't have to stay in the room and babysit it.
I hope yours did not come broken like mine did. I had to order from Montgomery Wards to finally get one…..not cheap either.
Oh no! Mine has worked great so far, I love the convenience and not being tied down to watching that gauge. They are not cheap, though. Amazon has them, though, and have always been very good to me about returns for damaged items.
What does the ground beef taste like? After canning does it change the texture? I’ve never had canned ground beef.
I didn't notice a difference with the ground beef. Big difference with chicken, though.
Kosher salt is fine as well.
Good to know, this is the way I learned it years ago, and just never questioned it.
If you are canning the pints at 85 minutes, how long do you recommend pressure cooking the quart jars with meat for? Thanks in advance!
The regular time is 90 minutes, so I would probably do an additional 12. So 102 minutes in an electric canner.
@@homestead4life18 Thank you so much. I'll do that!
Did yours constantly steam entire time? Mine did and it made me nervous.
It was, at first I was worried that it wasn't sealing right, but then I figured it's weighted and regulating itself. And the jars all popped, so I feel good. :) So much easier (lazier?) than a traditional canner.
@@homestead4life18 Thank you
Quick question. Hit high or pressure can
you hit "high". That threw me off, too. I had to double check and reread the instructions, but it says "pressure cook" not "pressure can," and that is NOT the function for canning. It's misleading.
What is the shelf life of electric pressure canned ground beef? I am learning to can for long term storage should we have no electricity for the freezers. If this only has a short shelf life, what would you recommend for long term storage for meats, beef and chicken specifically?
18 months is the usual.
BUT, gotta be stored in cool/dry/darkest area--where you can check the tops by thunking the lids.
We ❤ the versatility of precooked meat. I put an Easter dinner on the table in less than 1 hr.
Lamb roast (last August)
Couscous, fancied up.
Squash & onions (qt from last year)
Salad.
Guest brought instapot & made mac&cheese. & desert.
Once u take out jars do u let them sit on counter for 24 hours? Then take off rings n check sealing, then put away?
Usually only because I'm lazy, but that's the end result. Since they usually sit in an unplugged canner overnight, I check the seals when removing them from the canner. The rings I sometimes remove at that point, sometimes a couple days later when they get moved to storage.
Just bought my Carey...used once as 1st time canning experience....love it! Also, can you I use boiling broth?
I don't see why not. I know people who put a towel between jars when they don't have a full batch to make sure nothing falls over - I've done that in a regular canner. I don't see a difference.
👍🏻
Why the correction on the time from 75 min to 85 min? The USDA 2020 food guide (sec 5.6) says 75 min for Hot pack.
In the electric canner, it's taken the extra 10 minutes for every jar to consistently seal. To me, the extra time is worth it for 100% success rate. There must be some difference with a standard canner and electric to cause it, but I don't know it.
@Homestead4Life Is this true for all things pressure canned in this canner or just those containing meat? I plan to pressure can green beans in this as well and am wondering if I need to increase the time for those as well.
Could you tell me how many pounds of ground beef I should brown in order to fill 5 wide mouth pint jars? Thank you!!
Sure! It's fairly close to one pound per jar, you may have a bit of extra headspace, but not much.
@@homestead4life18 Thank you so much! That was so quick of a response, I really appreciate the help!👍
Do 4 small mouth fit or does it need to be 4 wide mouth?
The small mouths actually fit a little easier!
HELP!!! Yesterday afternoon I did 5 pints of hamburger but my canner had steam escaping the whole time. Everything seemed to work ok, the jars sealed and everything and the manual (Nesco) said that steam escaping is normal, but did yours do that the whole time too? I thought it would escape until I switched it to Airtight then maybe sputter out here and there but that was not the case. Now I'm concerned that maybe it didn't come to as high of pressure as it needed too. What are your thoughts (does mine sound broken?)
Yours sounds just like mine! It worried me initially as well, but is absolutely normal, don't fret!
@@homestead4life18 Thank you so much for responding so fast. You've really put my mind at ease ; )
How much ground beef did you use? Are those 1 pound packages? Also, can use this canner to cook food like an Instant Pot?
They are one pound packages, that's exactly right. It does not have the preprogrammed buttons and timers that an instant pot does, and it maintains a specific pressure - which the instant pots do not. But it is an electric pressure cooker and I have absolutely used it like an instant pot. Your times may not be the same, though.
@@homestead4life18 Thanks for your reply. I have the same canner. I bought it last November and haven't gotten the courage to actually use it yet. After watching your video, I have a little more confidence about it all. Is there are cookbook or a website that shows you how to use it like a regular pressure cooker? I've never done that either. Just getting my feet wet and feeling quite insecure. I plan on canning the ground beef, but was just thinking how nice it would be to use it as a cooker as well.
Can I use ground turkey to pressure can?
You can, but ground meat should all be pre-cooked.
I have been changing my valve at the beginning of the e10 cycle. I don't know if I saw this wrong in a video or misunderstood the instructions. I have been doing this since December. I am devastated.
I don't know that it makes a difference, I know the instructions say to wait until it counts down, but I have had good seals when I switch it at e10 or 0. The timer doesn't start until the pressure is right - and that tells me that it's gotta be fine.
Another channel comment said it was ok, don’t worry about it. Food should be ok. I just bought my Nesco and the instruction booklet sucks. These vids are the only that help!
@Homestead4Life thank you... I thought I was going to have to empty about 300 cans of food. I have to have 2 major surgeries and hubs and I work 12 hour shifts in the winter and I was trying to get the upper hand plus his mom has dementia and can't cook anymore.
@Homestead4Life I was ready to cry...I thought I was going to have to toss 6 months of hard work and a lot of money.
@Crafts, Beauty and Life I would have been devastated! It's frustrating when 1 or 2 jars don't seal, but to TOSS that much? The wasted time and money - devastating. I can only imagine. Thank goodness it's not necessary!
Wish you would have showed up close pic after you packed the meat in the jar.
I live in NW Ga which valve would I use ?
What's you altitude? 1,000ft uses the green one
Where did you get that apron???
My Mom! Urban Owl Embroidery in TN, but she can ship them! They have some great stuff, this was my custom order, but now she sells them ❤️

What size is this canner ? 9.5?
Yes, this is from the Amazon description:
The removable 9.5 qt. non-stick cooking chamber is dishwasher safe and can hold and process four Quart (Wide-Mouth), five Pint or sixteen 4 oz. jelly jars at a time.
Could you put Beef Boulion powder instead of salt? Thank you. 😊
You can add anything, really, the salt even isn't required. I would caution that all flavors are a bit super-charged when canning though, so I would try it sparingly.
@@homestead4life18 Thank you. I want to learn how to can dry beans. I just got the carey canner. So excited to see other videos. Thanks
I was not clear. I want to can beans with water. I did know that dry canning is not safe. Thanks.
Do you have a place for recipes
I don't. I store the links in my favorites, print them (and lose them), screenshot them. Most are kinda willy-nilly anyway, so not much of a recipe for some.
Forgive me...did you warm your jars?
Nevermind...I went back and saw how you did it. Thank you!
Awesome, glad we had it all covered!
85 minutes? Where did you come up with that?
No one heats rings or lids anymore.
I've heard that, but I haven't been able to find the long term studies or instructions either way on different brands of lids. It would certainly save me a step!
Question on time…in the beginning it was 75 minutes but afterwards it was noted the time was supposed to be 85? USDA is 75 - why did you change it to 85?
Hey there. Ground beef in the electric canner has sealed consistently for me at 85 minutes. Rose Red Homestead has the equipment to test the pressure in her jars, and she does 85 minutes, 75 minutes didn't not have a consistent success rate. I would rather over cook it than waste it, so I'll stick with the 85, myself. But as long as yours seals at 75 minutes, that's what the USDA says it needs, so rock on :)
I have had failures in each of my canning sessions. 1 jar in my first session and 2 in the 2 nd session. So far disappointed.
oh no! How long did you run them in, and did you clean the jar rims? That's why I add 10 minutes to the processing time for anything with ground beef, I've had great success since then. Rose Read Homestead has a cool gadget where she tested the pressure and time and everything, so she actually proved the need to add it with ground beef.
@@homestead4life18 they were beans only. I was testing the canner. I did a third batch and had another failure. I called them and spoke to them. I did trouble shooting to no avail. It was always on the same side of the canner. They ended up sending me a new canner. I was impressed with their customer service. I have not used the new one yet.
my carey was 203$ then i saw the nesco for 170$ i exchanged
Wow! Prices went up, and more for the Carey? Weird!
Just got my Nesco for $129!
How can I like this stuff I mean the content no grueling hard work a hot chick when we lovvvvee this sheet
😠 P-R-O-M-O-S-M!!!
