Can this be used to can both quart and pint jars on a glass cooktop stove?

I have this pot as well as the Ball Canner. There is very little difference between the two. I use both on my smooth top range without any problems.it will hold 7 qt or 8-9 pt jars.

I believe the Cook N Home pot is not deep enough for quart jars. There is not enough space above the jars for the recommended 1" depth of water for canning. I cannot find my booklet to see if it mentions use on smooth-top range.

I don't see why not can you use your other cook were on your ceramic glass stovetop??? If you can then you can use this one also

I'm sure you can, even though I don't have a glass cooktop. It should work just as well as it does on my electric burners. Make sure you don't turn the heat up too high, though.

No. the 300cc size says it is good for a gallon. so one should be fine for a quart jar.

Yes it can. I had this stove and the top warped. It has thinner steel on top than most. I would look at other options.

I don't believe so, it is designed for cooking not canning. You might fit a few 1/2 pint jars in it. Don't recall it saying anything about canning with it the booklet.

While I have used mine with a small 4qt pressure cooker I would not recommend a larger one as I think it may be too heavy for the unit considering the weight of the cooker plus the water and jars.

I believe the canner would be fine for use on glass cooktop. I used a pressure canner and water bath canner for years with no issues when I owned a glass top stove prior to buying a gas stove.

I have a glass top and it works on my burners great. I use 2 burners to heat this pot for canning jars. It's 14in across,I love it cause it's big enough for a lot of jars. I haven't filled it with food yet, it would make a ton of chili.

You may, but always use the rack to keep the jars off of the bottom. Do not slide the canner as it may damage the stove surface !

No, this meant to be used inside the canner to be able to fit a second row of jars. The temperature needed to make the canner come up to proper steam wouldn't be safe, because the rack does not fully touch the burner. There is a definite space between the rack and burner. I would suggest a coil electric burner, or a propane gas burner. A glass top or induction burner wouldn't be safe enough.

Yes, it can. It says right on the which side goes "up" for use with glass top stoves.

It is designed for 3 one-pint jars. You can't (or at least I can't) fit 3 quart jars in it. You might put 2 one quart jars in it, but then you'd need a pot high enough.

I don't know....I don't have a glass top stove. Best to consult the manufacturer.

yes. make sure you have a grate or something like that so the jars are not sitting directly on the bottom of the cooker. that will ensure you don't have any jars crack.

Check your stove's user manual. I was able to use it on mine (older glass top Maytag).

I would say yes. But make sure all the jars are not touching each other when you use. I am not an expert , but we used others like these in our pressure cooker years ago.Randy
