Instant Pot Buttons - Which button do I use? NOTE: NEW website coming soon! Subscribe for updates! -subscribe using option at the top left of the page I hear/see this question ALL the time. It is a huge source of frustration, especially for new Instant Pot users, or those entirely new to pressure cookers altogether. I didn’t know which darn buttons to use for a while either, no worries. Another intimidating thing about the Instant Pot or pressure cooking in general is some of the terminology - Check out Cracking the Instant Pot code for some help! Now that I have figured out the buttons on my Instant Pot, I thought I’d share the knowledge. Most of this information is in the manual, but like most of you I bet, I don’t like to read manuals - I like the internet! 😛 Pages 11-16 of the manual are worth the read. The images are based on the model I have and LOVE, the IP-DUO60 6 qt 7-in-1 Instant Pot. This review is based on the DUO model - I have the IP-DUO60 6 qt 7-in-1. To the best of my knowledge via research, here are 3 main differences I am aware of between Instant Pot's DUO and LUX versions of the Instant Pot. LUX does NOT have the Yogurt button, DUO does have this option LUX has a single pressure option, High Pressure at 10.2-11.6psi; DUO allows for double pressure options, Low Pressure at 5.8-7.2psi or High Pressure at 10.2-11.6psi Keep warm option: can be set for up to 10 hours on LUX, while up to 99 hours 50 minutes on DUO models Having clarified these differences, to the best of my knowledge, the buttons work the same otherwise. Now, let’s start with a few FACTS: FACT: After selecting a cooking function button, you have 10 seconds to adjust cook time before the it will begin the function. NO WORRIES though; you can always press Cancel button and start your selection over. Don't stress😉 FACT: For Pressure Cooking, you must ALWAYS have about 1 cup (or more) liquid in the inner pot - ALWAYS. This allows the pot to come to pressure and actually work! Opposite to that, if you have a ton of liquid, it's okay, but just be patient as it will take a while to come to pressure (I.e. If making Bone Broth or soup with 6-8 cups of water, it could take 20 minutes or so to actually come to pressure FACT: ALL pressure cooking function buttons default to HIGH PRESSURE, except Rice - Rice defaults to LOW PRESSURE HIGH PRESSURE = 10.2 - 11.6 psi, Temperature of 239°F - 244°F (115°C - 118°C) LOW PRESSURE = 5.8-7.2 psi, Temperature of 229°F - 233°F (110°C - 112°C) FACT: Preset Pressure Cooking buttons are 1-4, 9-12 as pictured below Notice how they are all within the outline surrounding the digital display! Manual (7) is a pressure cooking function button as well, but has no preset time Buttons I use most frequently: 7. Manual NO preset cook time, defaults to High Pressure Pressure adjustable: use Pressure button (13) Cook time adjustable: use “+/-“ buttons (17) I cook 95% of my recipes using Manual on high pressure at a cook time I have deemed most appropriate for what I am cooking - honestly, if I ONLY had that button, A-OK! FAQ: Can I use the Manual button for pressure cooking ANYTHING? Answer: Sure Can! 6. Sauté Appropriate for browning, searing or simmering Temperature adjustable: Press Adjust (14) for Less (lower temperature for simmering), Normal (higher temperature for light browning/searing), or More (higher temperature for darker browning/searing) Temperatures for Sauté, LUX model Less: 221°F (105°C) Normal: 320°F (160°C) More: 338°F (170°C) Temperatures for Sauté, DUO model Less: 275°-302°F (135°-150°C) Normal: 320°-349°F (160°-176°C) More: 347°-410°F (175°-210°C) Digital Display will show as “ON” while Sauté setting is preheating will show as “HOT” when Sauté setting has preheated 16. Keep Warm/Cancel Keep Warm: Pot automatically changes to Keep Warm after set cook time has completed (up to 10 hours) You can manually turn the DUO Instant Pot to Keep Warm for up to 99 hours, 50 minutes You can manually turn the LUX Instant Pot to Keep Warm for up to 10 hours Digital Display: starts at LO:OO - meaning HourHour:MinuteMinute - HH:MM time counts up so you can keep track of how long Keep Warm has been on Time display also allows you to keep track of how long pressure has been releasing naturally after a cook time has commenced - learn more about Natural Pressure Release (NPR) Cancel: Press to turn Instant Pot off Digital display: OFF: no cooking is taking place - Instant Pot is OFF or in Standby Pre-set Pressure Cooking buttons: *Don’t be scared or intimidated of these buttons - they very SIMPLY have preset cook times associated with them. They don’t perform miracles. The cook times are not set in stone. The default cook times are not always the best, depending on cut, size & type of meat, vegetable, bean, etc - they can be adjusted as described below, or using “+/-“ (17). 1. Soup Normal Default presetting: High Pressure, 30 minute cook time Press Adjust (14) to change to Less (20 min) or More (40 min) cooking time The pot will automatically adjust the pressure and temperature during cooking with this setting so the broth "never goes into the heavy boiling state”, per manual Because of this, you do NOT want to use Soup setting if your goal is to boil heavily in order to create rich broth or stock from bones/shells 2. Meat/Stew Normal Default presetting: High Pressure, 35 minute cook time Press Adjust (14) to change to Less (20 min cook time) or More (45 min cook time) 3. Bean/Chili Normal Default presetting: High Pressure, 30 minute cook time Press Adjust (14) to change to Less (25 min) or More (40 min) cooking time 4. Poultry Normal Default presetting: High Pressure, 15 minute cook time Press Adjust (14) to change to Less (5 min) or More (30 min) cooking time 9. Steam Normal Default presetting: High Pressure, 10 minute cook time Press Adjust (14) to change to Less (3 min) or More (15 min) cooking time "Unlike other pressure cooking functions, Steam heats at full power continuously” while heating to come to pressure Because of this continual high temperature heating, you really MUST use a trivet, cooking rack or steamer basket, or oven safe container or your food will likely burn to the bottom of the inner pot. GREAT for cooking heat sensitive vegetables - continual high temperature heating allows Instant Pot to come to pressure quicker, thus prevents overcooking of something like broccoli or fish 10. Porridge Normal Default presetting: High Pressure, 20 minute cook time Press Adjust (14) to change to Less (15 min) or More (30 min) 11. Multigrain Normal Default presetting: High Pressure, 40 minute cook time Press Adjust (14) to change to Less (20 min) cook time. Press Adjust (14) for More - 45 minute warm water soaking time followed by 60 minute cooking time ideal for "harder grains such as dry split corn” 12. Rice Normal Default presetting: Low pressure, automatic cook time “Fully automated smart program…adjusted automatically depending on the amount of food content” IMPORTANT! In order to successfully use this preset cook setting, rely on the rice:water ratios in the "Electric Pressure Cooker Recipes” book you got with your Instant Pot on page 32 Note: I do not use this option for cooking rice - I use manual. Why? It’s faster. Interesting fact: in the "Electric Pressure Cooker Recipes” book you got with your Instant Pot, the recipes for rice on page 10 even suggest using Manual… So…why does this button exist? Dear Instant Pot, lots of Fancy pants options are not always a good thing. Other Cooking option buttons: 5. Slow Cook Default: Normal, 4 hour slow cook time Press Adjust to set Slow Cook Less (Traditional Slow Cooker - Low, 190°F-201°F) Normal (Traditional Slow Cooker - Medium, 194°F-205°F) More (Traditional Slow Cooker, High, 199°F-210°F) Use “+/-“ buttons (17) to adjust cook time 8. Yogurt 3 programs: making yogurt, pasteurizing milk, making Jiu Niang (aka fermented glutinous rice —> aka “sticky rice” per manual) see pages 16-17 in the manual for more on using Yogurt function Operation Keys: 13. Pressure Allows you to toggle from Low Pressure to High Pressure pressure cooking (DUO models only - LUX allows for High pressure only) Does not work on "non-pressure cooking functions: Slow Cook, Sauté, and Yogurt” 14. Adjust Use for the following: Adjust preset pressure cooking times. Applies to preset pressure cooking buttons 1-4, 9-12 only Adjust temperature of Slow Cook and Sauté Selecting programs when using Yogurt 15. Timer Use to delay cooking start time You MUST select a pressure cooking option or the Slow Cook option FIRST WITHIN 10 SECONDS, press Timer, then use “+/-“ buttons (17) to set delayed hours; wait a second or 2 after hours are set, then press Timer again to set delayed minutes using “+/-“ buttons (17) Cancel delayed cooking start time by pressing “Keep Warm/Cancel” NOT RECOMMENDED FOR: "perishable foods such as meat and fish" "porridge, oatmeal or other foamy and sticky foods" NOTE: All quotations as well as specific temperature information used in this blog article come from pages 11-16 in the Instant Pot User Manual as well as www.instantpot.com PLEASE leave a comment - let us know if this was helpful, and/or what else could make this even more helpful!
