This is year 2 using this canner and I pulled the rack out to find this burned ring on the bottom. I tried looking at used canners on marketplace to see what others’ looks like, but no one showed the bottom like this. Am I turning my heat up too high too fast? It seems like I can’t get a rolling boil going if I don’t turn it on high, but maybe I could start lower and bring the heat up slower?

It’s normal. It’s from minerals in the water and mine did it with 6″ of water in it on the first use.
Mines almost black
That’s normal. Just keep using it.
