Home Cannery : Canning dry goods for the long haul

Filed under: Videos |


A few of us went in on an All American 7502 Senior Flywheel Can Sealer with Adaptor to have the ability to dry pack our own food. We got ours from the canningpantry.

  11. Engineer, if you get a chance, take a look at some of my videos on this type of caner, it will help you with the maintenance, lube spots the factory does not tell you about and keep the wear down to a minimum.

  14. I’ve used Mormon facilities and they don’t ask for anything except to buy supplies. I don’t contribute to their church by going and paying so I leave a donation because they had to pay for that equipment & facilities. Networking, even with churches, works best if we give back if we can. hehehe, give back if we “can”

    I also give to the Salvation Army & shop. I personally “won’t have any food” but I want a location people can go. Being a food source as a single household is dangerous

  15. It’s a great nutritional choice, and not starving does wonders for moral. If someone is complaining that they want cheezy poofs while people around are having a hard time getting food, I’d recommend eating them for the protein & to shut them up … good for moral ; )

  17. Our last major buy was the Lee Reloade and, along with the 1000’s of Store Bought rounds we have, this is a great way to make ammo and we have ammased a good bit! We can help friends reload, too, and this is a great skill to have for Barter in aWROL. I love my Model 921 Pressure Canner an dhave made 1.5 ys of beef and chicken and pork and stews and turkey in the canner. Until we get home, this is all I have room for.. I am looking at climate controled storage for now, till we move home

  18. We have used the LDS 8 times. We don’t have a retreat ( yet) but are getting land with water source. We are stuck away from our home state, and In a smaller condo for now, we have manged to astore 2.5 yrs of food storage, ( who else has 25 lbs bags of wheat next to their Bed ? ( haha)! I have canned 40 lbs of Hershey Cocoa, in the Mason Jars with the Food Saver and Port attchment, and we have coffee canned this way.too. You can rent the canner from my LDS, I will try that for now. Thanks!

  20. i know you say they are expencive for a canner like that one but how expencive are they because i can think of all kinds of stuff that would work great for everything from chicken feed to small suverival kits to gun ammo the list is almost endless

  21. Fine for people who are happy to eat their way through 100 #10 cans of lentils and Great Northern beans. Are you sure that’s the sort of food that would help morale as well as nutrition in a WROL/disaster situation?

  22. Side Note: Many LDS canneries have can sealers for loan (free), but the waiting list can be a bit long.

  23. Danzak, I am guessing he chose the #10 can over the larger buckets so that once the can is opened he won’t have to worry about spoilage. Eating a 5 or 10 gallon bucket of dried beans could take quite a while.

  24. That really is a fantastic idea. Roughly how much did the pallet of #10 cans cost? The can sealer was pretty pricey.. I wonder how may of my friends I could get to go in with me on the deal?

  25. That’s actually an awesome idea. Drop in a couple silica gel packs and your ammo would be good for 30 years or more!
