Pressure canners should not be cooled with water as rapid changes in temperature and/or pressure can cause the jars to leak their contents. Just shut off the heat and allow the pressure to drop to zero, then remove the weight and lid. Allow the jars to stay in the canner for another 10 minutes to stop boiling, then remove. Cool down time for my 30 quart AA canner with a full load is usually only about 30 minutes.
