If you look up AVB recipes (especially on reddit) you will come across a bunch talking about putting the AVB and oil in a fully sealed jar and either roaring boiling it for a long time or putting it in a pressure cooker.
The slow cooker is just so much simpler and easier, and it’s still very effective.
Edit: And suggestions of soft boiling vape parts in milk to clean/reclaim them…
Yeah that’s because they aren’t doing it properly.
You don’t seal the jar and a pressure cooks puts pressure on the outside…. Not inside….
A slow cooker with a mason jar in it leaves a clean crockpot for cooking instead of needing two. The jar is JUST a vessel.
I’ve looked up guides, I’ve done this dozens of times. Even a full sealed jar is designed and meant to be used under pressure…. Canning requires pressure FFS dude.
How is cleaning a full crockpot easier than just a mason jar….?
I understand that their instructions are bad… that was my point this whole time… I don’t know why you feel the need to keep telling me that.
Jars are too small for me and I’d rather just do a larger batch in a slow cooker. Ours cleans out fine and doesn’t effect cooking/flavor of other food.
I’ve known people who’ve had accidents canning and home brewed beer bottling, where their equipment failed and injured them. I’m not going to trust the Walmart special canning jars to hold up fully sealed in a pressure cooker or roaring boil, as most reddit/forum instructions I read stated. That sketches me out.
I understand there are other safer and more effective ways to use jars. I’m glad you have something that works for you. Cleaning our slow cooker is easy and it’s easier make large batches this way.
Thanks, I’ve saved your comment. Unfortunately I threw away a large jar of AVB just last week!
I 100% agree about doing a sealed jar in a crock pot, that’s fucking insanity and pretty much a bomb.
No problem!
And yeah that’s my fear too… Just imagine the jar exploding and sending molten oil everywhere like napalm…
So for anyone wondering, you don’t fully seal the jar and make sure the jar is upright.
The jar is a vessel and the water warms it, not different than a boiling crockpot, just cleaner.
And you also realize you have to boil jars to can them? They’re meant for pressure… where does the risk of explosion come from?
