My current pressure pot is made from an old pressure cooker. It has been great, but it now needs a new gasket and the company went out of business years age.
I have looked at the links about making one from a HF pressurized paint can. The instructions look simple and straightforward. My question is by the time I get the pot, gauges and all the fixtures and pay shipping, I have over $150 in the pot. I HAVE READ ON THIS SITE AND OTHERS THAT SOMETIMES THE HF POTS EXPLODE.
For $225 I can get the Alumalite Pressure pot.
What is the best option? I'd like to hear from those with the HF pot especially. Do these pots go boom?
