Improvised Steam Juicer

Using a Presto Pressure Canner

The cast:

17 quart Presto Pressure Canner (bottom)
3 stainless bowls
stainless colander (5 quart, with handles squished in to fit)
small steamer basket (from a pressure cooker, actually (and no, I didn't get the hard water film off before I took the pictures:)))

Be Aware:  Removing the juice bowl can be tricky! There is a lot of steam and hot liquid!
