Wow, thank you Violet.... that was a very thorough answer.. I guess I'll be finding another use for my large jars... I have another question that is off the topic of pressure canning. I have searched the archives and haven't been able to find anything (which doesn't mean that it isn't there). I want to get a grain mill and have been reading up about The Country Living Grain Mill. Does anyone have any information about them? If there is another thread about this topic, please tell me know.

Thank you both... I'll go with the 921, then. I am curious as to why it's not safe to use jars larger than quarts?

Hello good people, This forum thing is new to me so if I make a mistake, just let me know... My husband and I are very interested in getting a pressure canner. I have water-bath canned for years, but my freezer fills up every year with the produce that I can't can in that manner...Anyway.... I am trying to decide between the AA 921 or the AA 925. The only advantage that I could think of is that perhaps the 921 won't take the 1.5 quart jars. Having never actually seen either canner, I'm not sure if this is true... If I don't have to get the bigger, heavier one, I would prefer not to. But, there are times when I use my larger jars.... Any help on this matter?
