QuestionWhat is the inner pot made of? Is it stainless, or non-stick?
Asked 3 years ago by DennisB.
- Answer Hi DenDen. The inner pot is made of 18/8, food-grade 304 stainless steel, compliant to FDA standards. There is a washable, non-toxic wax-compound polish on the inner pot, for sparkle. Bottom of the inner pot is 3 layers: 304 stainless steel, aluminum, and 304 stainless steel. 304 stainless steel has trace amounts of nickel, which causes the alloy to be inert and nonmagnetic. We hope this is helpful!

QuestionHow many mason jars can I get in it to pressure cook...quart size
Asked 3 years ago by Larry.
- Answer Hello Larry. You can use the Duo model for what's known as "water boil canning". However, please ensure that you do not pressure can in this model. Pressure canning requires a minimum 15psi, whereas the Duo is only rated up to 12 psi. This means that it does not reach pressures for safe pressure canning. A 6 quart Instant Pot can fit 3-4 one pint jars.

QuestionDo you have to set time to cook dry beans or the cooker stop when they are done?
Asked 3 years ago by maria.
- Answer Hello maria. Thank you for your question! To cook dry beans in the Duo, you can select the Bean/Chili function or the Pressure Cook function. Once set, it will take time to come to pressure. Once it has come to pressure, the cook time will begin to countdown. Once the cooking time is complete the display will read End or will go into Keep Warm. For starchy foods like beans we always recommend a natural release. We hope this helps!

Asked 4 years ago by Debbie.
- Answer Hello, make sure your silicone gaskets are seated properly and in perfect condition under the locking lid cover. The Instant Pot will not build up pressure if those seals are damaged. If your seals are damaged, you can purchase a set of new seals from BestBuy or Amazon.
