Warnings and Tips

When cooking, please add adequate water or liquid to avoid burning or
dry heating your pot. You will lose some liquid due to evaporation. In
each cooking setting, once the contents reach a boil, the temperature is
then reduced to a low simmer (small bubbles) for the remainder of the
cooking time.
Mitigate evaporation by using the included silicone plugs and adding
more liquid than you think you will need, until you are comfortable
with how quickly steam evaporation affects the contents of the cooker.
1. FAST / STEAM cook will take about 40 to 60 minutes to reach
a boil (full pot)
2. SLOW Cook will take about 1 hour to reach a boil (full pot)
3. Porridge/Oatmeal will take about 45 to 80 minutes to complete
cooking (depending on the volume of the contents).
4. For FAST cooking mode, add 8 cups of water per hour set for
cooking.
5. For SLOW cooking mode, add at least 4 cups of water per hour
set for cooking
6. You can always substitute water with veggie broth or bone broth
for savory dishes to enhance flavor and increase nutrition.
7. When cooking bone broth for extended periods of time, please
monitor pot liquid periodically to ensure there is plenty of liquid
inside to avoid food burning. If liquid is getting low, add HOT
water. If there is no liquid left in the pot, DO NOT add any
water, even hot water. Turn off your cooker immediately until it
cools off, then resume cooking with added water.
8. DO NOT cook dry Casseroles in this pot. All recipes should be
very wet, with 8 cups of liquid per 1 hour cooking time.
