    You are absolutely right about sterilization when canning & using a pressure canner. There is no need to pre-sterilize jars if you pressure canning. The minimum pressure for 5 pounds is already at the temperature that kills bacteria, etc. Don't let anyone in the canning field tell you otherwise - many have just followed what grandma did and that's fine. Their methods work as well, but I do my canning the way you do and its less work. The only thing I don't do is use vinegar to clean my jar rims; especially on a dairy product because one teeny drop that could fall into your jar will change it. You can use a very damp paper towel and it works fine. Great job on the video! Your wife should be very proud and thankful to have a husband like you. God bless.

      The vinegar cuts any grease that may be on the rim of the jar. You do NOT have the paper towel soaking wet with vinegar just damp with vinegar. Water is not going to cut any grease on the jar.

    Thank you for a great informational video on how to safely pressure can milk for long term storage. I can my butter similarly. I have also canned ghee but, I do prefer the taste of real butter. Only difference I do, is actually not the butter itself but, my pressure caner. I also have a 23qt Presto caner. Same model as you have.
    When I grew up and was learning how to preserve food. Our pressure caner was of the old type that only had the jiggler and NOT the pressure gauge in the middle. Of course it had the pop up thingy as well as the rubber nipple in the lid, that IF you did somehow manage to get to much pressure in the caner, it would pop and let the pressure out.
    As an adult, I was still using the old type pressure caner with only the jiggler. Unfortunately, when I moved over to northern Scandinavia, where I still am. I had to leave my pressure caner behind, thinking I could buy a new one over here... NOPE... They don't use that system here. They only use water bath and more or less only use it for jams, preserves and maybe pickles... I had to buy my 23qt Presto through Amazon in the US and yes, it did cost me an arm, leg and my firstborn with shipping and custom/duty fees... Next problem was finding jars that could withstand the heat and pressure, hopefully from within the European Union, so I wouldn't get slapped with the crazy custom/duty fees. Finally manged to find good quality jars, which I could use the Ball type lids and rings on. Something that made me VERY happy...
    Back to my pressure caner... Since I for so many years was used to only the jiggler, that pressure gauge in the middle was driving me totally bonkers!!! I read up on the Presto caner and found out that I could use the different weighted jiggler on the caner and totally ignore the gauge!!! Hallelujah!! I'm back to enjoying caning again!!! 😁

  • @janeta4727
    @janeta4727 Місяць тому +1

    Very thorough video. I enjoyed!!
    The white stuff in the bottom is the milk solids. That is what gives butter its flavor and why I prefer it to ghee. The main reason I at least wash new jars and lids is to remove the oils used in the process of making them. After that, I don't worry about sterilizing them when pressure canning, just clean. I have a 16 qt and 23 qt Presto pressure canner/cooker and an All American 921 1/2 pressure canner/cooker. My preference is the All American, of course.
    Also, please make sure the water temp in the canner is similiar to that of the filled jars. Putting hot jars in cold water can crack the jars due to temperature shock. Putting cold jars in hot water can cause the internal product in the jars to not get as hot as is needed to properly process it.

    Wait 24 hours till the jars seal
    Then you can shake jars next morning several times
    If you shake soon as they come out of canner you might cause some butter to get under the seal and cause a false seal
    This is imo and other Prepper’s whom I have watched do it
    God bless you and your family 🙏♥️🙏

I don’t even like having it in the fridge in the boxes they come in because it picks up a funny taste from the fridge. But of course my fridge doesn’t stay spotlessly clean.😬

    I canned butter for th first time this August watching a video on UA-cam. I also water Bathed some food. It takes 3 hours to water bath If you are lower in altitude than 1,500 feet. If you are higher in elevation, it takes 6 hours to can your jars. So using the pressure canner is safest at high altitudes. I had to throw out 18 jars of food because I was at higher altitude. Also, I don't recommend putting Vinegar into your pinto beans. I did this and that also is a large mistake. No vinegar. Just salt and not to much. Then use the Pressure Canner not the Waterbath if you are at higher altitudes. One more Mistake to Avoid is that when the pressure pops up, do not turn off nor turn down the heat. Let the heat remain stable on medium boil , then start your timer and let it go the Full Recommended Time. Once there, only then, turn off your stove and let the Pressure Canner cool slowly down. give it another half hour before you open the Canner. This will keep you safe. Then open the lid Away from you not towards you.

As far as I have been able to learn from the National Center for Home Food Preservation (they are the ones who set the standards for safety and quality for home canning) there is NO SAFE WAY to can ANY dairy products including butter. So my question again is where is the data to show that your method of canning butter is safe? Thanks.

      If you want to do it, do it. If not, then dont. No one is forcing you to. Im guessing you've never eaten at an Amish table. Lol. The Amish and generations of non-Amish families have used canning methods other than what the government dictates as safe and have come out no worse for the wear, with negligible incidences of food poisoning. It's up to each canner to decide what works for their family.

    Did you put your jars in the oven to heat up?

    Thats not the correct way, you have to remove the milk solids and the water component..

    So I tried your method with processing 75 min and my milk solids have browned. Have you run into that issue?

      If you pressure canned it for 75 minutes at 11 lbs pressure. Did not let it dropped under that it is safe.

      Are you in a hot climate? If you are like I am I believe the butter will stay liquid in our jars. I have not canned any yet but want to. I just can’t find anyone that has done this in the south like Florida where it’s always hot. I live in the Bahamas and we never get “cold”
