Presto 02152 Digital 17-qt review
Presto Precise 17-Quart Digital Pressure Canner (02152)
By Tom Calder
The mid-size digital Presto, with a removable stainless pot and room for 5 quarts. As with the 23-quart, follow Presto's manual: NCHFP said in 2021 that Presto validated its digital canner's times itself and USDA hadn't evaluated it. Pick it if you like the stainless build and don't need the 23-quart's 7 quarts.
