The E48965 Electric Pressure Canner is a high-performance, all-in-one canning solution designed for safe pressure canning of meats, poultry, seafood, and vegetables in glass preservation jars. Built from durable Grade 304 stainless steel, it offers corrosion resistance, even heating, and long-lasting performance.
Equipped with a powerful 2kW electric stove plate base featuring an energy regulator switch, this canner allows precise temperature and pressure control for consistent canning and sterilization applications (e.g., mycology substrate preparation). The detachable base adds flexibility, allowing you to use the canner on gas and electric stoves when needed.
With a 103.4 kPa (~15 psi) pressure regulator weight, the canner reaches 121°C (250°F), ensuring safe processing of low-acid foods. An optional 80 kPa (~10 psi) regulator is available for recipes requiring lower pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What pressure does the canner operate at?
Our pressure canner is supplied as standard with a 103.4 kPa regulating weight. This pressure is equivalent to 15 psi which is the USDA recommended pressure for canning of meats, poultry and low acid foods. We also supply a 80 kPa weight as an optional extra which offers 10 psi equivalent pressure suitable for canning of high acid foods, fruits and jams.
How many jars will fit into the different capacity canners?
The below provides a comparison of capacity between the different models:
- The 10-litre canner takes 7 x 500 ml jars
- The 20-litre canner takes 14 x 500 ml. (stacked) or 7 x 1000 ml. jars
- The 30-litre canner takes 18 x 500 ml (stacked) or 9 x 1000 ml jars
- The 40-litre canner takes 27 x 500 ml. (three layers stacked) or 18 x 1000 ml. (stacked) jars
Please note that this is indicative and the actual capacities depend on the dimensions of the specific jars used.
What heat source can the canner be used on?
The canner is supplied with a detachable 2kW stove plate base. The canner can be removed from this base and used on an alternate electric hot plate or a gas stove. The canner is not suitable for use on a coal fire. Coal fires are not suitable for canning as they do not offer a safe and reliable means of regulating heat. The canner is manfuactured from Grade 304 Stainless Steel which is non-magnetic. As such, it cannot be used on an induction stove plate.
Where are the canners manufactured and are spares readily available?
Our canners are manufactured locally at our factory in Meadowdale, Johannesburg. We supply a full range of spares and offer after-sales service.
Can the canner be delivered?
We can arrange delivery across Southern Africa. Please provide us with the phsycial address for delivery, and we will ensure to include this when quoting. Alternatively, the canner can be collected from our facility either by yourself or your preferred courier.
