I don't know. I have never used these Jars in a pressure canner as I did not purchase them for that. I would not use them for that purpose, as I use them for storage. Sorry that is not much help!

I use my jars for dry good storage. I would contact the maker before using in a pressure canner.

I don't know, but I would not recommend it. I use it for a food storage, that is sealed with no air coming in and out, unless you open it.

I'm not sure. This was designed for water bath canning. The water in a pressure canner can reach 240 degrees F, higher than the 212F in a water bath canner.

If it can be canned in a pressure cooker, this one will do it very well. The whole point of the pressure cooker is to use the pressure to raise the boiling point of the water in the cooker, which results in faster cook times and in sterile canning. Kuhn Rikon is a very quiet and very safe pressure cooker. I do much more than can jellies and jams in mine, as I have found it indispensable for cooking beef, pork, venison, broth and stews. I bought the stock pot, but you might want to consider the shorter pot if you wish to do more canning, as the shorter pot will have a wider bottom, allowing more jars.

Maybe yes, maybe no. I have not tried but have tested a bit. The only thing you can really fit in it is 1/2pint jars. Also most canning procedures recommend that you vent steam for about 10minutes before you start building pressure. I tried that with this unit and it cannot be done. If you try to vent the steam for any more than a few seconds before building pressure the unit will think there is a failure and shut the unit down. So you'd have to make an accommodation skip that part of the process for it to even have a chance.

this is not for canning. It is a very tech design pressure cooker, for meals, roasts, all kinds for foods. But not canning.

I don't believe so, it is designed for cooking not canning. You might fit a few 1/2 pint jars in it. Don't recall it saying anything about canning with it the booklet.

No . . .you must use a PRESSURE canner for meats, poultry and fish. This unit isn't a pressure canner.

I wouldn't; the heat-up and cool-down times required for proper canning could not be achieved with a regular pressure cooker. But it depends on who you ask, don't take a chance with the family's safety. Spend a little more and get the All-American 15-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner. You'll make up the cost as you'll be canning your own food.

most definitely.....this does not take the place of pressure canning which is needed for low acid foods. they will not be safe in this. it is a wonderful product and works like a dream....love it.

It's a small pot with a basket that fits inside, has a lid and is great for boiling. As for canning use, you would need to make that determination. I don't know if you need pressure for canning. If so, no it won't work. If you just need to put a jar into it and boil it, then yes it would and the basket would make removal of the hot jar easier.

Depends how old it is and what brand and if it is for canning or a regular pressure cooker. Let me know and I will see if I can help.

I don't think so. The 0312 looks quite different from the pressure canner I use, which does not have a pressure gauge, just the weight.

Yes, would be impossible/dangerous to use this equipment otherwise. I always find it helpful, when considering purchasing a product such as this, to read the manual BEFORE purchasing, to help determine if the product is for me. Here's a link to the manual if you're interested:http://www.allamerican-chefsdesign.com/admin/FileUploads/Product_44.pdfAll American makes the best home pressure canner on the market, bar none. If you need one that processes smaller batches or you happen to have a low range hood, this is your canner.

Yes it will. This is what I use with my pressure canner. Is was the primary reason I purchased it.

No! This is only a water bath canner. You need a pressure canner for green beans. There is a big difference as you probably know. The pressure canner lid locks into place and mine has a steam valve and a pressure gage that I keep a constant eye on once the correct pressure is reached. LindaT

I'm sorry but I am unable to answer your question as I do not have a pressure cooker. I purchased this to use in a pan to poach fish and have not used it yet. Good luck.

No, it is not a safe substitute for a canner. He has a new one out that can be used however.
