Response to Another Canning Question

from Brad (homefixer@mix-net.net)
Sure. Are you using propane or gasoline (Coleman fuel)? It takes less energy to can with pressure (steam) than it does with a boiling water bath, since you're heating much less water, and the pressure causes the steam to get over 212 degrees. The only difficulty you may have (besides draft control, see above) is in adjusting the heat, but I can't imagine it would be worse than one of those dreadful electric ranges! Good Luck! Brad
