QuestionCan it be used for canning?
Asked 4 years ago by daniel.
- Answer Great question, Daniel. The Duo isn't able to can, because pressure canning requires a minimum 15psi, whereas the Duo is rated up to 12 psi. This means that it does not reach pressures for safe canning. We currently have one Instant Pot that is capable of pressure canning called the Max. For more information regarding this model, please visit our website or contact our support team.

QuestionWhere is the "Manual" button on the 6 QT model?
Asked 4 years ago by SARAH.
- Answer Great question, Sarah! On the newer versions of the Duo 60, the 'Manual' button has been re-labelled 'Pressure Cook'. Other than the label, it's the exact same, so any recipe you find that mentions the 'Manual' button can be recreated perfectly by using 'Pressure Cook'. We hope this helps!

QuestionAfter a couple years of use, the inner pot has a film of food or spices I can't clean off. I've tried as much as an SOS pad (not too tough on it) but, after drying, the film is still there. Any suggestions for cleaning?
Asked 4 years ago by Dave.
- Answer Hi there Dave. To remove stains from the inner pot, please use a non-abrasive cloth or scrubber dampened with baking soda and vinegar. Please rinse and dry your inner pot, especially the bottom. This will prevent any residue left from the soap transferring to your heating element. Residue can also be from hard water stains. We hope this helps!

QuestionMy Instantpot has "exploded" twice so I'm afraid to use it now. I think it has to do with improper installation of the steam cup at the back or improper setting of the vent knob. Is there a demo or manual that will help me with proper assembly?

Questioncan i use the instapot to can in?
Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer You can use the Duo for what's known as "Water Boil Canning", but please ensure that you do not pressure can in the Duo. Pressure canning requires a minimum 15psi, whereas the Duo is rated up to 12 psi. This means that it does not reach pressures for safe canning. We currently have one Instant Pot that is capable of pressure canning called the Max. For more information regarding this model, please visit our website or contact our support team.

QuestionCan you use slow cook liners in the instant pot?
Asked 5 years ago by Pam53.
- Answer I really don't know if you can or not, but you really don't need to. The stainless steel pot cleans so easily there is no need for those plastic liners used in the old style ceramic crock pots that never seem to get clean after use.
