OSU Extension Darke County
Canner Gauge Testing Time
July 12, 2012 

Planning to do some canning this year to take advantage of your garden produce?  That means it’s time to get your home canning equipment in working order.  OSU Extension, Darke County, will check dial type pressure canner gauges.  

There is a $5.00 charge for each gauge tested.  You will need to bring in your dial gauge to our office and we will test it immediately, or call you to pick it up after it has been tested.  In addition, you will receive the most recent materials available on home food preservation. 

Please bring your canner lid with the gauge attached to be tested.  We will also check the gasket on your canner to make sure that too is in working order. 

OSU Extension, Darke County, is located at 603 Wagner Avenue, Greenville.  If you have any questions, please call 937-548-5215.
