Enhance your Presto pressure cooking with the 09978 regulator

If you own a Presto pressure cooker or canner, this regulator is designed to fit the newer vent pipe and provide a clear signal when 15 pounds of pressure is reached. It helps regulate the internal environment of the cooker, supporting steadier cooking conditions and more consistent outcomes across batches of favorites like beans, stews, or preserves.

Crafted as a functional upgrade, the 09978 regulator builds on the reliability you expect from Presto. The device works with compatible models to maintain steady pressure, reducing guesswork and helping you plan meals with a bit more confidence. While reviewing recipes or timing your canning, this part offers a tactile cue you can feel as the unit cycles through pressure changes.

Key features and compatibility

• Fits onto the new vent pipe for compatible Presto pressure cookers and canners.
• Indicates when the system reaches 15 psi and helps manage internal pressure during operation.
