And speaking of that, I just bought myself one of those Fagor pressure
cooker/canners. It's 10 quart stainless so I can use it as a regular
pot or for small batch steam pressure or BWB canning. You can do 4
pints which is just perfect for some things. I just hate dragging out
the big canner for small batches.

No doubt you all have discussed pressure cooker/canners before.
