My wife uses the old cooktop presto canner. Its pretty easy but takes quite a bit of time. I bought her an electric canner she likes better but dont do as many jars at a time. Im sure there are plenty of youtube videos to watch. I would recommend you start small batches till you get the hang of it. It would suck to can 100 jars of something and the lids blow off a week later. Good luck. Its a dying art but it is certainly a piece of the sustainable life puzzle.
