The Beans are Canned!
I spent most of the day yesterday getting all these in the canner.
It took 2 batches in our giant canner to get them all done
Since each batch is in the canner at least 3 hours (1 hr to warm up, 75 min for processing and 1 hr to cool down and lose pressure), it takes awhile.
To process, I drained the beans from the water they soaked in the night before and rinsed them off really well. Then I filled each jar not quite full to leave room for expansion since the beans will cook in the pressure canner. I poured boiling broth over the beans in each jar, wiped around each rim and loaded it into the canner. The canner we have can fit 32 pints or 19 quarts!
Here's the grand total 
I like canning in the winter because there are fewer projects going in and it helps heat the house!
Do you can this time of year? Please tell us what is going on at your homestead! Thanks for upvoting!
Looks like your all stocked up 👍🏼👍🏼 Good job
Thank you!
Verygood post
Thank you!
after processing all of my tomato & hot sauces in november, i fully encourage winter canning! much slower around the house in general, and YES you can appreciate the heat!
Yes definately! Do you freeze your tomatoes before you can them?
yes, i did this time around - mostly because i knew i had space in the deep freezer. totally gonna do it again, too!
That is an accomplishment. Good work
Those look really nice! We make lots of beans in the wintertime too.
Samantha, I can all year long. Your beans look wonderful. Thanks for the great post.
