Hey intelliganons
I am from /ck/ I like to coo/ck/
I have a pressure canner that's made of aluminum. A pressure canner is a vessel that sits on a stove and clamps shut tight and holds about 15 PSI on some mason jars to pasteurize and seal them.
vessels that sit on a stove and clamp shut tight and hold about 15 PSI are also great for cooking all kinds of things - so long as they are made of steel
if your pan is aluminum, like mine, and you cook food in it - aluminum leeches into your food and gives you alzheimers, and your food pits your pan and turns it into a bomb
steel pressure canners are like $700

So my stupid question is: Will a stainless steel liner (like a saucepan I dremel the handle off of) in any way negatively affect the ability of my pan to hold pressure or pressure cook food? Please see the picture.
Green = aluminum pressure canner
Gray = Steel pan with no lid
Blue = water surrounding the steel pan. Should water be in the steel pan?
Red= Food
