Title: Reusable Canning Lids!
Post by: TWG2A on April 26, 2012, 03:51:12 PM: Tired of buying canning lids?

These are cool.

I bought some of these for last year's harvest/canning marathon and I can't speak highly enough of their quality!

Not sure about you, but as someone who cans a LOT, I'm tired of buying so many lids, only to toss them after one use.

Do yourself a favor and get some.

(No, I am not compensated for sales in any way whatsoever, nor am I affiliated in any way to the company selling these. Just want to share this great find with my fellow home canners!)

Post by: TWG2A on April 26, 2012, 08:23:12 PM: Yes, I reused about a dozen of them for canning potatoes and pumpkin around December. They seal real nice and I'm hooked. A lady I know over in Wyoming who's a "canning machine" has been using them for a while now, and she's the one who recommended them to me. She said she hasn't thrown one away yet after using them several times. I'm a huge fan, because I hate having to buy new lids knowing they expire, and that I'll need to throw them out after one use. I also like the fact they're made in the U.S.A. and that they're BPA free.

Yeppers! They're the Tattler lids. I'm going to buy some more, for good keeping. Probably about a hundred.

Love it :) Nothing finer than popping open one of your own jars. Thanks for the heads up. Less waste is always good.

Post by: NRA4LIFE on June 14, 2012, 07:10:28 PM: Interesting. I go through about 10-12 dozen lids every year. You would have to get 4 or 5 uses out of them to just break even though. Is it easy to tell if one doesn't seal?
