[Small-Appliance-Cooking] very basic instant pot questions

[Charlene Ota]

Hi, Dean, do you have the AIRA app on your phone?  I just suggest you might
try using the app to navigate through the buttons and view the settings that
each function starts out with with an AIRA agent. There are several versions
of the instant pot and I don't they all have their buttons set up the same
way.  If you don't currently have an account with AIRA, you can use it for
free for 5 minute intervals. Also, if you could tell us which instant pot
you have, maybe someone on the list has the same one and could tell you the
layout. Also, if you get the online manual for your instant pot, I think you
can find them on instantpot.com that will give you some of the basic
information you need to know about each function.

 

I feel like I'm not being very helpful, and apologize for that!

 

Best,

Charlene

I have a non-Bluetooth model of this device. It features two columns of six
buttons on the edges of the panel, and two columns of three buttons in the
middle. I have barely begun to learn this, and in fact to get more serious
about cooking than I have ever done.

 

I have some questions about how the Instant Pot operates.  The first two
concern slow cooker operation. When you push the Slow Cooker button, does
the time start out at .5 hour, to be increased with each press of the plus
button?  Similarly, does the Adjust button start out set to low, with
possible next choices being medium and high?

 

Please clarify if I'm in error, and provide any other Instant Pot tips and
resources you are inclined to provide.

 

Thanks.

 

Dean
