About this deal

Believe it or not, water actually spoils if left to sit for a few months, even in glass jars. Things like moss and mold might proliferate, and you’ll notice an “off’ flavor in the water after a few months. Water in the canner must cover the jars by 1-inch the entire time they are processing. Half-gallon jars are most convenient for storage, but you must use a canner that can accommodate their size. Water butts with rain water diverters are designed to collect water from the down pipe and still let the overflow enter the drain or soakaway. That said, the quality of the water doesn’t really degrade if you “over can it” and process it for too long. If you want to error on the side of caution, that’s totally fine. I’ll run mine through a hot cycle on the dishwasher and then leave them in there to stay warm until I’m ready to begin actually canning.

Some agencies are writing for experienced canners, that understand that you need to adjust the canning time for elevation. Others are writing for novices, and just providing the hottest and longest process time out of an abundance of caution. (Process times that’d be completely overkilled at sea level, but just enough for over 6,000 feet.) When I finally put them side by side and tried to find a consensus…I was surprised to realize they’re all actually saying the same thing. Water is a healthy and cheap choice to keep you hydrated, but other drinks can also count towards your fluid intake. We also get some fluids from the foods we eat. It’s incredibly simple! You take clean water and boil it for 10 minutes and then water bath can it for 20 minutes. Allow the jars to seal and store in a cool dark place. See the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post for additional details. Canning Water Supplies The state and governmental agencies don’t actually provide any recommendations for pressure canning water. Common sense though, tells you that processing the jars at 5 pounds pressure for 10 minutes (below 1,000 feet elevation) is totally sufficient.Bringing all the various instructions for canning water together, this process actually agrees with more than a dozen sources from various agricultural agencies. Rather than just giving you the longest possible times (as some do), I’m going to give you altitude adjustments. Keep in mind that you cannot add any nutrients or sugar attempting to make an electrolyte solution. It must be plain water, without anything added. Water for canning must be free of nutrients. Boiling water canning does not destroy the spores of Clostridium botulinum, so can pure water only.” Water resources in the UK are under pressure from climate change and population growth. Gardeners should therefore use mains water as sparingly as they can. If you’d like to use half-gallon jars, the Utah State Extension Service recommends using a 20 minute process time. They don’t provide altitude adjustments, but for safety, I’d assume that means below 1,000 feet. Add 5 minutes for 1,000 to 6,000 feet (making it 25 min), and use 30 minutes for over 6,000 feet.

Use collected water in a watering can or a coarse spray setting on a hose;a fine spray setting will generate fine aerosol particles which can be carried on the wind and breathed into the gardener's lungs and cause infection.Using a pump to transfer water encourages aerosols which are best avoided Plus, you’ll cut down on waste from all those one time use plastic water bottles. Is Canning Water Necessary?

I did find one source that has a tested pressure canning water recipe in Diane Devereaux’s book The Complete Guide to Pressure Canning. She suggests processing the jars at 5 pounds pressure for 8 minutes. Less Fuel & Steam ~ Faster process times means I’m using less fuel (propane) to get the job done, and the sealed container means I’m not steaming up the kitchen as much.
