    Eighty four cobs of corn were purchased and processed into pressure canned juice for long term off season storage. Corn cost $7.00 per dozen. The kernels were cut of the cobs yielding about ten pounds of corn. The corn was placed in a cooking pot with ten liters of water and boiled until soft about 20 minutes, then beat into a slurry. The slurry was put through a 2mm mesh food mill and the residue was put through a Champion Juicer to extract maximum nutrients. The processed juice was pressure canned at 15 PSI for 15 minutes. Fourteen one liter jars of juice was obtained from the 84 corn, about 5 cobs of corn per liter or slightly less than a pound of kernels.
