Who knew 6 pints would fit? I've not tried my hot pot as a canner. And just got the new re-useable lids and rings in the mail ( I ordered them Summer 2021)! Then there is the matter of a back
yard full of 3 ft tall Mallow because I can't mow with all the rain. They all sealed....so... I'm 6 pints in and still a yard full. . ..... .......................Later............. 6 is too many for the pot ......5 also is too many the towel on the bottom keeps getting scorched so only can do 4 safely. But they're all sealing so...I just mi gusto t keep using these new lids nd use instant pot for small batch ...like leftover soup etc.
