Unpacking your Instant Pot box - Instantpot com manual
The great thing about your Instant Pot is that Instant Pot has made it super easy to find your manuals online! Below, we have listed the model and the link to your manual. Simply click on the model you have and it will take you to your manual:. However, there are other brands of electric pressure cookers out there.
Most electric pressure cookers work the same way and recipes are interchangeable. Below, I am listing the most popular pressure cookers. Please click on your brand for the manual:. Step 8. After a few seconds, you will hear 3 beeps and the control panel will display On. It might seem like nothing is happening but the pressure is building up and after some time you may hear a hissing sound, which should only last for a minute or two.
This is normal. Once the pot has come to pressure, the float valve on top of the lid will rise to the top. Step 9. After a short period, the cooking timer will start counting down. In our case, it will be 5 minutes of cooking the rice under full pressure. The status icons will change to just P — cooking under pressure.
Step Once the Instant Pot beeps again and the timer has reached zero, the cooking process is done. End will appear on the control panel. If you had Keep Warm selected, a new status icon will appear on the display — Keeping Warm — as well as the keeping warm cycle timer, which will last for up to 10 hours unless you press Cancel.
Simply leave it undisturbed! It will release all the steam and pressure by itself after a period of time anywhere between minutes. Once the pressure is released, the float valve on the top will drop back down and the lid will loosen up allowing you to open it. Please note, the food continues to cook at a slower rate during the natural release. This method will let out the steam in one go and depressurize the pot immediately. Simply press the quick release button on top of the lid or point the steam release handle on older models to Venting.
The steam will rise through the top steam valve and a loud venting or hissing sound will occur. Yes — that steam is hot and so take care. Done cooking? Open the lid and stir the contents if needed. Once the pot is empty, remove the inner pot and add some water to soak before cleaning by hand or in a dishwasher. Unplug or switch off the main power to turn the Instant Pot completely off. Since the pressure is gradually released, there is less movement in the Instant Pot, any built-up foam settles, the stocks and soups come out cleaner and foods are more likely to stay intact.
Combined NPR and quick release: in many cases, you might want to use both methods for best results; you can allow the pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes and then use the quick release method. This works well for foods like rice, pasta, some soups and porridge. If you choose to use one of the pre-set smart program options, the steps are even simpler. Add ingredients and liquids to the inner pot. Stir if needed or leave layered.
Select one of the Smart Program buttons. Pre-set cooking time and pressure level will display. If you make any adjustments to the selected Smart Program, they will be remembered next time you use it. Once pressure is released, open the lid and stir or remove the contents. Learn more about other smart program settings on Instant Pot here. Star the Instant Pot. Insert the inner pot into the cooker base. Do not use the lid for the next step. After 10 seconds, the cooker displays ON to indicate that it has begun heating.
When display switches from On to Hot, add ingredients you want to brown. Note: You can add ingredients before the Hot message appears; if you do, it may not appear at all. Thank You. Is the manual of the Instant Pot Duo available in English?

I want to make country ribs, that I plan on re-saucing and crisping up under the broiler. Hi Susan, You are exactly right. You use the trivet if you want to keep the food out of the cooking liquid.
Here is my Instant Pot Ribs recipe, for more information. Good luck! Thank you for creating such an easy guide. Honestly, after reading the manual I was ready to send mine back. Im going to try it out today. I am so glad I found you! I have just bought a used Instant Pot and had no idea how to treat it to see if it was working correctly. Thanks to you, I now know how. Thank you! I just ordered the duo from your amazon link.
Thank you for the step by step how to use! But cooking frozen chicken without defrosting first does sound awesome. Thank you for all the info. I will use my instant more often now. At first it was a ornament in my kitchen and scared me to bits every time I wanted to use it. Hi Elaine, That is exactly why Instant Pot recipes are some of the hardest to test. I recommend that you follow trusted recipes for a while until you feel comfortable experimenting.
Hi Stanley, It depends on your Instant Pot model. Some will automatically start a few seconds after you press the saute button. Others have a start button that you need to press in order for the cooking function to start. You can also consult the manual that came with your IP, or just try it out. I have such a problem with setting the time. Not sure if anyone else does. What looks like 3 min to me is actually 3 hours!! I also want to thank you for your easy instructions. Like others, I was ready to toss mine until I came across one of your recipes.
Thank you!!!!! You can check the manual for instructions on if it has a way to manually set the pressure cooking time. The recipe says to cook on high pressure for minutes then manually release pressure. My eggs were still raw. I did not use the Keep Warm function. What did I do wrong? Hi Mary, That is disappointing! Since the eggs were undercooked, it sounds like the egg bites needed more cook time, or some natural release time before manually releasing the pressure.
This is assuming that your Instant Pot is working properly. Do you have a trusted recipe and do I use the basket? I have the duo 6qt. Thank you. Hi Keith, I do not have a recipe for brisket. You can try searching the web to find one. Is it always so quiet? Just hope I set it correctly. I used beef stew settings. Hi Nancy, Yes, the Instant Pot is usually pretty quiet.
Can you use this the insta-pot to can vegetables beets and other food needing pressure canning? Hi Lynn, Please use a specifically made pressure canning device to ensure safe temperatures for canning. I have not seen the Instant Pot marketed for pressure canning by the manufacturer nor that use recommended in any model manual so far. What am I doing wrong? Hi Donna, The lid gets hot to touch if the pot is working correctly. If you suspect your pot is not heating properly, stop using it and contact customer support here.
I bought a Avalon Bay insta pot and I cannot find out anywhere on the top lid it has close in the middle and on the left and right both say open.
