NOTE: This section of the guide appears to contain some sort of error in the information given within Table 3 above. In the USDA book there are only TWO sizes of jars specified in the table but there are THREE separate lines of figures in the table and it is not completely clear which jar size the second and third entries refer to. I have given the second entry's numbers as those to be used for Quart jars and below I have reprinted the third entry on the table for an unknown jar size. Style of Pack: Hot. Jar Size: ??. Process Time: 10 min. Canner Gauge Pressure (PSI) at Altitudes 0 - 1 000 ft: 15 lb. Above 1 000 ft: Not Recommended. ======================================================= === * USDA Agriculture Information Bulletin No. 539 (rev. 1994) * Meal-Master format courtesy of Karen Mintzias
