What canning equipment do you need? 🍴

Hi Achternaam,

“The best investment is in the tools of one's own trade.” –Benjamin Franklin

While Ben Franklin wasn’t talking about canning, it is true that having the right tools on hand can really speed up the process and make things more efficient and successful.

And in the case of canning, while you don’t need a lot of equipment, there are a few pieces (like jars and canners) that you can’t live without either.

How do you know what’s optional vs. essential canning equipment? Learn about canning equipment here.

While not absolutely essential, depending on what you're processing, you might find that a food strainer is something you use again and again like I do. Read more about my food strainer/sauce maker here.

And if you ever venture into fermentation, you might also find additional equipment like this pickle pipe helpful!

To your success,
Sharon
