Answer to Question 1

The water bath canner is used for foods that are acidic or low in pH, below 4.5 . The acid, along with the boiling temperature of water (100oC), aids in destroying the microorganisms. Fruits and tomatoes with a pH below 4.5 can be canned safely using a water bath canner. The pressure canner is used for foods that are low in acid (pH above 4.5). Such foods as vegetables and meats need the higher temperature achieved in a pressure canner to ensure adequate destruction of microorganisms.
