Pressure Cooker > 15psi?

I've looked, but can't find a pressure cooker which goes greater than 15psi. One of the pressure cookers that I have has a gauge that goes to 20psi, and if you go higher, it goes into a "caution" marking. I've not pushed it past 15psi. I'd like to know if anyone has modded their pressure cooker to go to 20psi, or even into "caution" range, or if anyone has found a pressure cooker that safely exceeds 15psi.

Sterilizers operate at a psi higher than 15.

I just don't want to look back and think "I could have eaten that."

Unsupervised, rebellious, radical agrarian experimenter, minimalist penny-pincher, and adventurous cook. Crotchety, cantankerous, terse curmudgeon, non-conformist, and contrarian who questions everything!

The best thing about a vegetable garden is all the meat you can hunt and trap out of it!
