I have used a 8 qt. pressure canner (which holds 4 qt) and have done beans and venison. It also holds quarts. I also use an 8 qt. faberware kettle that holds 5 or 6 pint jars with a metal spacer from my pressure canner on the bottom. No problems for 10 years......except my self cleaning oven doesn't work but I don't think that has any thing to do with the canning on top. The bottom of the kettle has to be SMOOTH and FLAT so a regular canner (blue, ribbed bottom) won't work. Burner will come on and off.

It will damage the top. It is too heavy and much larger than the burner. You risk serious damage to the glass top. If you crack it you can't safely use it anymore and a replacement top can cost over $500

In cooking a dutch oven is the original slow cooker. Usually made from cast iron, and can be used on top of a wood burning stove, in a wood burning fireplace, over a campfire, or with coal/charcoal. Some have domed lids, while others have a flat lid with a raised edge (aka flagged lid) which is idea for holding charcoal above the kettle. This allows for heat both above and below the dutch oven. These are generally available in stores such as Cabela's, BassPro and others.

Hallo, Glas spontaan gesprongen dit betreft het buitenste glas. Oven stond op een kier nadat hij ongeveer een half uur uitstond. Niemand in de buurt, Veiligheidsglas net als een autoruit gesprongen. Type...

Ik heb net een soortgelijk iets gehad met mijn siemens oven. Ik kon de glasruit vinden bij europart. Jou oven is hier te vinden: http://www.europart.nl/siemens/hb24058eu-slash-01-id-346228Maar je ruit staat er niet bij. Je **** gelukkig contact met ze opnemen en kijken of ze hem alsnog kunnen bestellen:http://www.europart.nl/offerte_aanvragen/

Changing stove from gas to lp do we need to open top of stove to do this?

Only if it is an open burner stove. Sealed burner stoves are converted without removing the top. Which do you have? Your owner's manual shows how to convert it. If you're missing the manual, tell us your stove make & exact model # and we'll see if it's available online to download. Douglas

You can buy replacement tops for your range. Check with your manufacturer for local parts distributors or service locations and they should be able to find you one. There is also online part stores that sell them like http://www.partadvantage.com/store anywhere from 150-400$

Kenmore Oven and stove not igniting

If both top and oven are not igniting, then most likely you need an ignitor board. I should be located behind the left side of the console as you are looking from the front of the stove. I will look it up to be sure. There should be a tech sheet on the back panel of the stove to help in checking the boards.
Thanks/Mike
