Dumb question about hot water fillers & pot fillers
Comments (7)The house we are renovating had a hot water tap at the sink. I was impressed. I'm a tea drinker, and it made it so easy. I also used it to clean a pot or pan, sort of a squirt of the very hot water to sanitize it. Of course I only used it one weekend we stayed at the house before demo. I took it out and didnt replace it for two reasons. One, even though we have well water, i prefer to drink (and make tea with) spring water. Two, my sink has two faucets , a soap and a sprayer. Thats a lot of bling already. Pot fillers. I put one in the kitchen in my old house 8-9 years ago. Loved it, could not do without it. If only you could drain the water too....See MoreSo does anyone here have an Instant Pot?
Comments (10)I have one. Don't let the part about 10-40 minutes put you off. I haven't had it take anything longer than 10 or 12. I am not an Instant Pot zealot and in general I hate gadgets, but I still find it useful. We are vegetarian so don't use it for slow cooking or pressure-cooking meats, which is one of the most popular uses. I use mine regularly for hard boiled eggs because they pop out of their shells effortlessly every single time. Also for mashed potatoes, steamed veggies, soups, mac and cheese, and cooking up large batches of kale or other greens without stinking up the house. One of the advantages of the Instant Pot is that it isn't releasing steam the whole time your food is cooking. If your kitchen tends to heat up or you don't like kitchen smells filling your house, it helps with those things. My friend who IS an Instant Pot zealot uses hers for almost every meal. I use mine about twice a week....See MoreInstant pot question
Comments (7)There is a very good chart on the InstantPot website. It would seem that your frozen roast would be about 20 minutes under pressure with a natural release. You do not add extra time if the meat is frozen, the IP simply takes longer for the temperature to rise initially. https://instantpot.com/instantpot-cooking-time/...See MoreQuestion for Instant Pot users
Comments (3)Yes, that worked for me. I have the Lux Mini. I'll print the manual or at least download it. Many thanks, Maddlelee....See More- 6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoWalnutCreek Zone 7b/8a thanked ravencajun Zone 8b TX
