Handy Canning Tools
Both beginner and “well seasoned”
canners may want to consider a few handy tools for this canning season.

Stainless Steel
Canning Rack (FP0026) - It seems like every couple of years you have to
replace a canning rack, especially if you do a lot of water bath canning. This
stainless steel canning rack is the last rack you will ever purchase! It won't
rust! With extra steel rings on a flat bottom and no dividers, you can use
non-standard jars. This “basket design” easily holds 14 jelly jars, 14
half-pint, 9 pint or 7 quart jars at one time. And with the extra rings on the
bottom of the rack, small jelly jars won’t fall through! Just what you need!
Deluxe Lid Sterilizer Rack (FP0179)
– No longer will you scald your fingers while retrieving lids from the
bottom of the pan. Simply insert lids into rack and lower into boiling water.
Made of stainless steel, the rack is 9-1/2” high to keep handle out of pot for
safety and widemouth or regular lids.
5-Piece Canning Tool Set (FP0174) – Did
your Mom or Grandmother give you her water bath canner or pressure canner? You
may need some tools to go with it. This canning tool set contains tongs,
magnetic lid lifter, jar wrench, canning funnel, and jar lifter. With this set
you have everything ready when the produce is ripe.
Collapsible
Stainless Steel Basket (FP1043) - It's the handiest basket you will ever
keep in your kitchen! Your grandmother used it during canning season to blanch
fruits and tomatoes. Now, you can use it to carry red-ripe garden tomatoes or
freshly picked vegetables to the kitchen sink for rinsing and then straight to
the stove for blanching.
Plastic Storage Jar
Lids (PG0181) - These handy lids convert your canning jars to storage
containers. After breaking the seal on your home preserves, reseal canned items
for storage in the refrigerator with these plastic lids. Want to store dry
products in your jars - these lids are perfect and won't rust! Remember - you
can't use these for heat processing! Lids come in both regular and widemouth
size!
Canning Starter Set (FP0175) - If you
are planning to teach someone the basics of canning and want to start them out
right, the canning starter set comes with basic tools and essentials. In this
set you will find a water bath canner, canning rack, funnel, jar lifter, jar
wrench, bubble freer, tongs, lid lifter and the “Ball Blue Book.” Great as a
gift or if you are just beginning to can.
Food Strainer (FP0212)
– Make fresh and healthy sauces, soups, jams, baby foods, pie fillings,
juices, wines, and more without ever having to peel or core again! This
multi-purpose strainer continuously forces food through its screen while
separating out unwanted seeds and skins. Fresh puree comes down the chute and
seeds and skins are discarded through the waste funnel. Enjoy healthy,
nutritious, all natural, preservative-free foods!
Ultimate Canning
Funnel (FP0144) - An excellent companion to our stainless steel canning
rack! Made from acid-resistant stainless steel, this "ultimate" canning funnel
will not dent or pit like aluminum funnels. It fits any canning jar with a
2-1/4" diameter throat.
For all of these wonderful timesaving
tools and essentials for canning, check out the Kitchen Krafts website under the
category of canning. You can be ready and prepared for this season!!!!
