    Here's the link to the USDA Canning Guide... http://www.uga.edu/nchfp/publications/publications...

    Believe or not... Many canning books we buy are based upon the USDA Guide.

    In regards to green beans, I thought you had to pressure can them unless you add an acid to the green beans. I don't remember, but you have "The" source.
