Another use for my pressure cooker...

[jimmayhugh]

I bought a 21.5 quart All American pressure cooker in order to can yeast starter, and to try steam injected mash infusion when I get my AG setup completed. I've added a T and ball valve as shown:

I'm a big fan of Alton Brown's "Good Eats" and like his concept of kitchen multi-taskers, so I was pondering other ways of using the pressure cooker.

I'm also a big fan of ported Better Bottles, and while perusing their site, came across this page concerning closed-loop racking. I figured that I could use the pressure cooker with a small quantity of dry ice to fill several of my 5 gallon better bottles with co2 prior to secondary racking.

Any thoughts??

Tried it, wasn't happy with results, and that's that.

It could double as an autoclave for sterilizing... Heck it even looks more like one than a normal pressure cooker.
