Excellent video! Thank you for sharing! I was wondering if you know how long the food will last in the can? Thank you in advance!

@thenewsurvivalist Thank you for reply 🙂 lots of apples now from garden, so we cann sliced fruit and mash (like baby mash mixed in with other fruits and like to drink it just like that in winter 🙂 but the canned juice is great idea! Gonna try this season. Cheers! 🙂

@stromak Just bring it to a simmer. That’s all that’s necessary. Canned foods will last for many years but they deteriorate in quality (taste and nutrition.) I recommend you use it within three years but I have kept it longer without any problems. As long as the seal is intact (the button on the top stays down) it won’t poison you no matter how old it is.

Good stuff! I’m adding juice to my to-do list. Thanks for taking the time to illustrate this.

@Fontanafamily Most definitely. It keeps the juice thieves away.

bottling cider makes a lot more sense to me. Although in order for it to keep well, it needs to harden so as to produce alcohol(which also preserves it) and if it is bottled before all the sugars are gone, the CO2 produced will keep the oxygen out .(when it stops bubbling, the sugar is gone. so add a teaspoon of sugar in your bottle). All you need is a glass jug, an air lock of some kind($3, or you can make one with tube and a glass of water) and a cool place. also: bottles, caps, and a capper!

@Dustycajungurl
no need to add sugar to apple cider. There is a TON of sugar already! If its too tart from green apples, just mix in as many sweet apples. It will blend nicely

@Dustycajungurl Yes, certainly, you can add sugar to taste.

@FREEDOMFIGHTER1967 So comfortable that I forget I am wearing it, like when I was making this video. I discuss this holster in detail in my video about concealed carry.

@scrm1 You can meat in a pressure canner and home canned meat is good for one to one and a half years. be sure to follow all the directions for your canner DO NOT try to can meat in a water bath canner. it will not be safe to eat. Always can according to a tested and approved recipe and adjust for evlivation home canning can be fun and safe if you take the time to do it right. NEVER CUT CORNERS when home canning you could get very sick.
