What are the inside measurements of the 8 qt size? I'm trying to determine how many/what size canning jars I can use. Thank you

The interior dimensions are 9 11/16 inches diameter by 6 5/8 inches deep. If you are using the steamer basket to keep your canning jars off the bottom, however, you only get 8 1/8" diameter by 5 1/2" depth. Fagor recommends you purchase a 10 qt pressure cooker with their canning kit, which will hold 4 1-qt or 4 1-pt canning jars. The Fagor canning kit comes with a rack to keep the jars off the bottom, which is probably better as it will allow more air flow than the steamer basket. You do not want the jars touching the bottom or sides of the pressure cooker, or each other, or they may break during canning.

Near the bottom of the cooker the Diameter is approx. 9 1/4 in. It tapers larger slightly to 9 5/8 in towards the top.There is a radius at the bottom as well that looks to be 3/8 in.

I am not sure on the 8 quart, I have the 6 quart. I am sorry I was not able to help you.

It's been a long time since I canned stuff. I vaguely remember you submerge the jars in boiling water for some period of time. If that's right you can put in 4 quart jars at a time.

The jars are just the same size of spices bought in the store. They are 3-1/2" tall x 1-1/2" wide. They are a perfect size. Sorry it took me a while to answer this back.

Being unsure of what size canning jar you plan to use I guess the best I can say about these scoops is that I use the quarter cup measure in my wide mouth coffee canister. They match my canister set ( Corelle's Simple Lines ) and the 1/4 cup fits nicely. The one cup size is longer and larger but the scoops are well made and have a nice grip handle. They also sit flat if you need to place them on the counter. If you view the canister set on Amazon then picture the second largest as my coffee canister, perhaps that can help you to reach a good determination if they're appropriate for your canning jar. GL!

I don't have a ruler on me right now... But there are 2 standard canning lid sizes... One is the small or "regular" lid that is ap prox 3in across... And the wide mouth lids which are about 4in across... The ecojar lids are for the regular small lid jars. They're awesome btw!!!

Here's an answer that I posted to a similar question: I've used a 2-qt Ball canning jar, which is too tall, but if you cover the Ball jar with a lid, then put a plastic baggie over the whole thing, it works! Alternatively, I've used a barrel-type pickle jar, which fits but only makes 46 oz. at a time. I actually brought the base of the machine with me to the grocery store, to find a pickle jar that would definitely fit.

See the following link. http://www.pickyourown.org/water_bath_canning_directions.phpThe diagram there shows you need 1-2 inches of water over the top of the jars AND 1-2 inches of room to allow for a full boil. I don't think your 8 1/8 in jars would have enough water over the top of them.

I used this for jelly jars last week and it held 7. I think if would fit 4 quart jars with no problem. Love this pan.

The lip on the front opening is only about 6" wide so a traditional sized canning jar would not fit. The inside chamber however is almost 7 1/2" tall so a jar will fit standing up, however you would need to tilt it some to get it in / out. The lowest heat setting is 95 degrees. Hope this helps!

Quart jars fit in there fine for me. I can get 3 under the tall dome. I also sometimes use a big glass mixing bowl from my stand mixer. It also fits well.

Be Careful! The 6 quart Presto model is barely tall enough to accommodate the height of a pint mason jar with seal and ring attached. The total volume of the vessel is not the issue here, it's the physical dimensions, in this case the height!!!! My 6 quart Presto allows me to can 4 pints IF YOU TURN THE SPACER UPSIDE DOWN AND PUT 4 QUARTERS UNDER THE SPACER TO KEEP THE HEAT FROM THE BURNER FROM POTENTIALLY BREAKING THE JARS!!!!! The quarters allow water between the bottom and the spacer. These units really should not be used for canning, there are other reasons.

I don't know the actual dimensions of these 8-oz. jars because I gave them all away as gifts. Perhaps the company who sells them might be able to answer this question.

Yes Debbie, it does accomodate quart size jars. We also have one of these and we really like it. My wife says either 5 or 7 quarts at a time.

As I no longer have this crock pot, I don't know the inner dimensions, only that it held 8-81\2 quarts of liquid. I do not recommend buying from this seller. They sent a broken product and charged me $5 for sending it back. Amazon is not to blame, only the seller.

This canner is 11.5 inches across the base. Inside height is 9", not including the lid. The National Center for Home Canning (University of Georgia) states the canner bottom should not exceed the diameter of the burner by more than 2"; they offer an excellent book "So Easy to Preserve" with tested recipes and methods for safe home canning. Jar capacity depends on the size of jars (1/2 pint, pint and quarts). I've used this canner to process jams and pickles - the only complaint I have is when processing quarts the lid allows boiling hot water to "spit" out around the lid. Last night I had to constantly monitor and soak up hot water that landed on the kitchen floor and range top. Since I have a glass top range I inspected the canner thoroughly upon arrival, feeling the bottom for any imperfections - I felt a tiny "burr" which I managed to rub out using fine emery cloth.

Two quart jars fit into this; however, I don't think I've actually canned with quart jars with this product. There are small plastic rings built into the bottom that are designed for three pints. I usually am using half pint jars and can put four in without a problem.

Hi, I wish I could help you with this question, but I purchased one dozen "8oz" jars and they are slightly taller. The diameter of the bottom of the jar I used is about 2.25 inches (approx 5.7cm)
