Feel free to use whatever veggies you like. We used carrots, celery, garlic, red onion, parsley, oregano, thyme, 2 bay leaves, salt, and whole peppercorns. We simmered about 28 hours. The canning process is 10ths of pressure for 25 minutes. If you havent already, please smash that subscribe button so you can receive updates from RUclips when we post new videos.

Catching up on farm work after Christmas!
I really enjoyed watching you do the chores rather than having to do the chores myself. Keep up the great work. 😊
Is there a certain size of control wire my run is going to be about 70 foot switch gear?
Hallelujah 🙌🏼
Yelp. That happens sometimes. 😂
lol that’s what I’ve heard! Just not around here. 😂
👌👍
It may be dry now, but God will soon send rain. Times may be hard now, but God will soon send easy times. Hang in there and know that God has you and your family in his hands ❤
Thank you! We got a good rain this afternoon!
Pray without ceasing. 💞🙏.....
👌👍
Can always use a tarp or plastic to cover things while waiting
How many refrigerators and freezers does a family with 12 kids have? Lord, I have 3 refrigerators and two freezers with two little kids plus mom's wine fridge. These units are good for 4-5 days. Of course, if you change your own oil and can adjust valves if warranted you can get them going again for another 4-5 days. I have the portable 17500 Generac but I think I'm going to get a standby probably 26KW or perhaps liquid cooled.
Hahaha not enough! Two large chest freezers, about to add a third.
Did you install or hookup a grounding electrode conductor?
Can you run the control wires in the same conduit as the feeders to the generator?
Generac makes a control cable that they say can run in the same conduit. As a general rule in the electrical world, you want to keep your control wiring and current carrying conductors separate.
I know this is a year old . I was given a chicken house form like tractor supply carries. It had a rotten top so I made it a A roof. Then the part that was for the laying box slash roost , I put a wood floor . Then I took a piece of linoleum and cut to fit the floor . Put my wood shavings in . Now when I need to clean it out I just gather the chicks and pick up the flooring dump it off wash it let it dry some and return it . Made cleaning out so much easier. Great brooder you built. Be nice to have helpers like you got . Beautiful family .
Thank you! The linoleum is a good idea, I may have to incorporate that!
Very informative. Thank you! I am thinking of getting this exact model. Did you think it was loud or too noisy when it was running?
It’s not bad at all. It’s quieter than a standard portable generator because of the enclosure.
Great video. We’ve ordered online wholesale for the past few years from Superior and have been extremely happy with their products and service.
They’re awesome! I wish I would’ve found them sooner. Thanks for watching!
Bought my RK25 fall of 2021 , Our service dept here in western Ohio at RK is really great ran by Bob Wilson !
That looks great
Prayers for your family...and especially the miracle baby!!
Thank you!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Good idea EMP-proof
Where did those Milwaukee drills come from😂
😂
Thank you for sharing all this info. I’ll check them out
Great video!
Wow -24 hrs should be $144 one day expensive yes but better than not having power.
What about the power take-off? I mow a lot, it has to work.
Works great. It is a live PTO, meaning it stays running even when the clutch is depressed.
I had a wire cable on my VW car and it broke. The replacement came from Brazil and was hard to find. I put several on myself and one stuck open and tbe car shot off. i was on a rural road or i would have rear-ended somebody. I was able to stop it. Always a problem: rope cable, Spring. Ugh. Springs break too.
Best fuel to use!
Enjoying watching your install video. I am nowhere near ready to do something like that but I do have my generator sitting here at the house waiting. Question though. You mentioned that you are using sprinkler system wire for the communications wires. I called Generac after reading in the install manual that it specifically states the use of low voltage wires for those is prohibited. I know everyone in Houston seems to be using that same stuff though. I guess maybe if something happened with a control board and if a warranty rep came out and flagged that they could technically avoid the warranty? Any thoughts?
Thanks for watching! Great question. There are different grades of sprinkler wire, you want your make sure it is rated for 120 volts. Generac makes a color coded cable if you can find it somewhere. It is specifically for the controls. It’s just a little more expensive.
Congratulations she’s just precious. Prayers for you all. I’ve seen God work miracles and he’s got this precious baby girl.
Thank you so much!
Such a precious treasure! So thankful to see the Lord's hand guiding you both. Your testimony is a blessing!
We appreciate y’all!
I can’t believe you didn’t rinse pickles from the salt/ice water bath😮😮. Every bread and butter recipe I have seen has a rinse step.
Hi you’re so absolutely right that is a miracle baby
Nice build but man you built this like you were building a house, it just has to hold some babies, not baby elephants! Love seeing your kids get involved and yeah they would probably sleep in the barn. I know I would have at their age.
Hahaha I have a tendency to overbuild stuff. Here in northern Florida we have strict hurricane codes for home builders so I have that mentality. I don’t have to worry about coons or possums getting in that’s for sure. Thanks for watching!
Good video. Sometimes just showing something is more than talking a bunch and playing music with a bunch of bass in the background. Little cringeworthy watching the meter base connections but good video.
The manual calls for 5W-30 oil not 5W-20. You may want to measure out the 1.9 quarts before guessing the amount.
I believe this sweet baby has already drawn you closer to the Father :) I would rather have one that had disabilities than one strung out on drugs or alchol, we don't always understand the Will of the Father but His word promises us that He worketh all things to our good, to those that love God and are the called according to His purpose, praying the Lord keeps working in that sweet baby to draw you right where you need to be :) I used to think because of the way I lived I was close to him but when hard times come he seems like a God that hideth himself Isaiah 45:15 :) He is right there always love and prayers for your baby and companion !! ps my wife has bought 2 gallon of that cleaning stuff she uses it everywhere :)
Well said brother, thank you! Glad she likes it, Super Clean is the bomb!
will it turn on if there is a brownout
It has a 20 second delay before starting up. It will transfer once up and running.
@@MaynardFamilyHomestead a brownout is when there is partial power, ex you have 80 volts wrather than 120 volts
my neighbour has a generac and i swear i hear that thing once a month they must do monthly maintnence
Yep you can program the exercise times. Mine starts up once per week. It’s just to run the engine and make sure it stays in good working condition for when you need it.
"He gone" 🕷️ 😂
Congratulations, and thank you for sharing. May this little one be a great blessing and encouragement to many!
Thanks for sharing! Keep the faith my brother! Prayers!
Thank you brother!
Goodness, probably time to stop having babies for Katie's sake.
Agreed
Congratulations!!!! Thank you so much for choosing life and giving your baby girl the life that God intends for her. I pray that you and your family continue to be blessed by God. Bask in his blessings and find peace even when his answer is no. Love your channel and your family ❤
Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching our channel!
Congratulations
Good video and have a good day
Thanks, you too!
With respect to plastic bushings, why do you really need them if the pipe is plastic. It's not going to shred the wires. It seems redundant. Now for metal pipe with sharp threads, makes sense.
I totally agree.
If you would have used some copper wires probably would have been easier to work with, feed through that 2.5" hole.
at 1:50, you should toggle that I/O switch to the O position so the generator doesn't start.
So after the jars leave the pressure cooker, do they get refrigerated or are they good for dry storage?
They go into the pantry, no need for refrigeration.
thank you for shearing it is very helpful ... keep up the great work
