Raw Packing vs Hot Pack Bean

[Deck78]

How many of ya'll raw pack your beans vs boiling them first and then packing?

Wife and I got a new pressure cooker for canning this year and I can't wait to start stuffing the jars!

I hot pack... Boil for a few minutes first, pack and then pressure cook. Never had a issue with any of them spoiling.

+1, but nowadays i find myself blanching and freezing more than canning.

We have 5 qt on the canner now.
Cold packed + 1/2 t of canning salt.
Pressurize to 10lb for 25 min.

Have always come out good.
