All American Pressure Canners have been the gold standard for home canning since 1930. Manufactured by Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry Company in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, these heavy-duty cast aluminum canners represent over 90 years of continuous production and refinement. What started with founder Josef Schmitt's commitment to quality in 1919 continues today under fourth-generation leadership, producing the only gasket-free pressure canners on the market.
With over 10,000 customer reviews and a lifetime warranty backing every canner, All American has earned its reputation as the most trusted name in home pressure canning.
Metal-to-Metal Seal Technology
The defining feature of every All American canner is the precision-machined metal-to-metal sealing system. Positive action clamping locks align the cover to the base, forming a steam-tight seal without any gasket. This exclusive design means no gasket failures, no gasket replacements, and easy opening and closing every time. The cover simply twists into position and clamps down securely—a system that's proven itself reliable for decades.
USDA-Recommended Home Canning
The USDA recommends pressure canning as the only safe method for preserving low-acid foods including meat, fish, poultry, and vegetables. All American canners deliver the consistent pressure and temperature control required for safe home canning. Every model features an easy-to-read pressure gauge for accurate monitoring and a pressure regulator weight with settings for 5, 10, and 15 PSI.
Six Models for Every Canning Need
All American offers six canner sizes ranging from the compact 910 (10.5 quarts) to the large-capacity 941 (41.5 quarts). The most popular models are the 915, 921, and 930, offering the right balance of capacity and manageability for most home canners. Smaller models work on glass cooktops, while the larger 930 and 941 require gas or electric coil burners due to their weight when filled.
Built to Last Generations
Extra-thick cast aluminum construction provides fast, even heating and durability that lasts generations. Double-thickness edges protect points of heaviest wear. Two automatic venting features—a safety control valve and overpressure plug—provide multiple layers of safety. Every All American canner comes backed by a lifetime warranty, ensuring these canners will serve your family for decades. Replacement parts remain readily available for continued service.
