Do have it tested. 22 psi is too high for a home canner. 10 to 15 psi are the common standards. To see what kind of forces are at work, calculate the inside area of the canner. Pi times the diameter gives you the area of the top and bottom. Now, take the diameter times the height. That gives you the area of the sides. Now, multiply that by 22 pounds, and you have the total force contained in the canner. You will find a shockingly high amount of force contained inside that vessel. Then recalculate using the correct 10 or 15 pounds. Quite a difference. Add to that, the superheated liquid contained within, and you will see that you have a potentially fatal amount of energy to be released in the case of a rupture. Please have it tested and recalibrated in necessary.

He wanted to get the rest of his corn in by the next day (Christmas Eve). We had about an inch of new snow on the ground and single digit temperatures. So in the bac
