Pressure Canner Gauge Testing
Weld County Health Department is offering complimentary Pressure Canner Gauge Testing! It is recommended to have your gauge tested every year before canning to make sure that you are processing at the correct pressure for a safe product. All components on the lid are checked, including the gasket/ring and safety plug.
To have your gauge tested, bring your canning lid with dial gauge, rubber gasket/ring and safety plug. You can schedule an appointment to have your gauge tested by contacting Pete Graham at the Health Department.
