Found this on a University of Minnesota web site.
It is wrong and I will explain why.
"""Process in a Dial Gauge Pressure Canner at 11 pounds pressure or in a weighted gauge pressure canner at 15 pounds pressure. Process pints for 35 minutes and quarts for 40 minutes."""
The weighted gauge pressure canner should read 10 psi not 15.
I am assuming they are talking about a pressure canner that has no gauge and only a weight for 15 PSI.
I would never use something like that as it would over process anything at or below 1,000 feet.
But they do have them.
So if you do have a weighted gauge canner and it has the numbers 5,10 and 15 PSI on them feel free at 1,000 feet or below to use the 10 PSI.
This isn't something I grabbed out of the stars it comes from the center for home food preservation.
It is for potatoes.
