Q: How many servings does this Instant Pot make?
A: This Instant Pot model has a capacity of 6 quarts, which is perfect for up to 6 servings.
Q: Is the cooking pot dishwasher safe?
A: Yes, both the lid and the cooking pot are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.
Q: What is the purpose of the anti-spin design?
A: The anti-spin design helps to keep the cooking pot stable and in place, making it easier to sauté ingredients.
Q: Does this Instant Pot model offer a slow cooking function?
A: Yes, the Instant Pot Duo Plus has 9 cooking functions, including slow cooking.
Q: Why is pressure cooking considered more energy-efficient?
A: Instant Pot appliances, like this one, use up to 60% less energy than traditional electric ovens, making them a more energy-efficient cooking method.
Q: Does it cook all kinds of rice?? What is the minimum amount of rice it will cook?
A: The manual says that it needs to have 2 cups of water to have the pressure properly built up during cooking. In general, if you cook white rice, that means you need to cook at least 2 cups of rice. Brown rice needs more water and time to cook. The brown rice to water ratio is 1:2. I adjusted the ratio 1:1.75. It comes out with the texture I like and the water amount of 1.75 cups does not cause any problem.
Q: Is the pot made with non-stick materials? I do not want non-stick.
A: Cleans easily. But is not made with non-stick material
