University of Illinois Extension recommends home canners test their dial-gauge pressure canners every year. Over time, the needles on dial gauges can move and will not read the correct pressure.
Tests are free and take 10-15 minutes per canner gauge. Call Caitlin at 217-877-6042 or email at chuth2@illinois.edu to set up a testing appointment.
Due to COVID-19, all tests will require social distancing.
Weighted-gauge pressure canners do not need testing.
