I'm confused, doesn't this link to the same video?
No music is best
One question, the ring needs to be removed after every dish cooked? Will it not make the ring loose? Thank you for all the super advice. I am a very new first time instant pot user❤
1.) No 🎶 music!
2.) And... I DON'T AGREE with removing seal ring every time. That will cause the ring to stretch out and/or wear out way TOO SOON! 😖
Can you show this without the talking?
No music is so much better, mainly because we are trying to listen to what your saying. Thank you 🙏🏻
I totally agree
No music is way better. I can't stand back ground music on shows or videos. Especially when it's as loud as the person talking.
I agree, too. It's easier to hear someone talking when there's no background music.
@@dawnlapp4862 if your husband doesn't treat you well then you can make an instant bomb in that instant pot
How to use?
Well it's simple, cook the bomb in the instant pot
Ask boifren to light a cigarette 🚬
Boom goes the roof and his house
Now your free
Materials required:
Kerosene/petrol/gas
Water
Catalyst
Instant pot
Nails/screws
Pro tip: if your feelin lazy then you can simply throw the pot at the target
Please no music is better
No music is best as people who have hearing issues might have difficulty separating out the voice from the music.
You are a great presenter, btw!
That's me
Me too. Either talking on it’s own or very low ambient classical is good for me.
That's me too.
Yeah! You should use a lavalier mic though, they are not expensive and they will sound better for voice than other very expensive mics, because they are a lot closer, so it won't have all that reverb and your voice will be a lot clearer.
Lorr.Jones888 my husband is hearing impaired and that’s so accurate . I’m still giving the video a thumbs up
No music no distraction. Thanks for your up load.
Love this video. OneNote from an electrician though. If an extension cord has an impact on your cook time, the cord wires are too small. This is bad for the appliance, and it is potentially a safety hazard. Big box (Lowe’s, HomeDepot, etc) or hardware stores sell a variety of cords in different gages. Also the longer the cord, the heavier gage it needs to be.
My Yedi pressure cooker specifically says NOT to use an extension cord in the instruction manual for these reasons.
Do NOT use an extension cord with small kitchen appliances. There's a reason these cords are as short as they are.
I burned out 3 expensive 55 cup coffee pots before knowing not to put it on an extension cord.
Get a designated extension cord specifically for small appliances.
Thanks I didn’t know any of this
Thanks for the info
Thank you for removing background music... I’m legally deaf it messes with my customized sound boosters 🥴.... but the music also confuses the close captions at times. 😭. Love your information.
Great list. I would add 27 don't pull part of the sealing ring out and then just keep pulling. Work your way around. The rivets under the retaining ring can snap if too much force is applied. 28 buy an extra sealing ring and use one for sweet/low flavour foods, and one for strong savoury foods like chillies, curries, beans, etc.
Thankyou!
Good advice, very useful tips. Thank you
Thank you, I never thought of that!!
Great tip, I appreciate this
I read every line of the manual and didn’t expect any new tips from your video. At least 20 were new to me. Thanks!
Brilliant. lovely clear instructions WITH NO MUSIC IN THE BACKGROUND. thats how it should be, Thank you.
Fantastic! No music. Quick, precise, humorous, educational!! Thank you!!
Um.... The vid starts at 1:16
This is excellent. Subscribed.😊
I do like it without music while you're talking you have a beautiful voice and great information that needs to be listened to. Music is quite OK before and after :-)
No tunes plx
Agreed! Big thumbs up for no music!
No music please, we have came for the cooking lessons, not for a music that we don't like. Thanks!
Definitely, and intro tune and an outro, but you don't need an audio bed under your speaking. Keep up the good work!
Yes, agree! And you could make the music fade more for smoother transitions 😉👌🏻. Thanks for this video!
Thank god! No music while talking. Thank you so much for listening to your viewers. I’ve just ordered an I.P. And have been trying to watch and learn what I can before it gets here next week. I did subscribe to your channel but now will enjoy it so much more. xx
I loved no music. This video was very helpful! Thanks so much for posting it!
I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm really-really-really old. I live by myself and cook my own meals - no processed food - nothing from a can or box. I just got my Instant Pot today, June 22, 2020 so yeah, I need your channel. Thanks so much.
Enjoyed your information. No background music makes it easier to follow what you're saying . Thank you
How's the pot? Got myself one to pasteurize substrate for my mushrooms :)
@GrumpyOld 😂 what do you consider really, really, really old??
@@linkee57 Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. lol!! 💀
@@linkee57 Guys...It could be a little too late. I mean triple "really" old is a lot.
I'm watching this AFTER using mine the first time. I quick released the valve when it had a lot of liquid. Ended up cleaning the ceiling. Haha
This comment just gave me a good laugh
Same. Mine just wet the entire dry kitchen :(
If we can’t use the valve to release with liquid..then what is the alternative?
@@Lucky-xj5em Allow it to do a natural release. It may take about 10-20 minutes to slowly release.
I haven't done that with my instant pot ....BUT I HAVE done it with hot liquid in a blender--what a mess on the ceiling, walls, floor, me....I just assumed that it would be the same issue with the instant pot so I have been careful. And yes ,you are a great presenter! Thank you!
So much better to hear you without music. My hearing isn’t great and the music, for me, really got in the way of hearing your fantastic tips! Thank you for listening to us! This video was fantastic and I appreciate you. Thank you 🙏
Love these tips! I love that you just cut to the chase and don't waste any time! I much prefer no music as I have audio issues and music in the background is very distracting. I have to add that you are absolutely adorable! Very well done and I'm subscribing!
When I use the quick release I don’t even use my hand lol. I get a wooden spoon and turn the knob with that.
The spoon/ladels that come with most instant pots with the "standard" release valves actually fit onto the release valve - use the handle end where there's a hole for hanging the utensil, it should pretty much fit on perfectly 👍🏻
If you’re that afraid, let it sit for a while. It doesn’t have to be quick released. I’ve always used my finger & have NEVER burned myself. All you have to do is touch the the little protruding thingy and move it with the slightest twitch of your finger. If your big enough to cook, then your big enough to bend your finger.
Never want background music when I'm listening to someone talk.
Can you help me? by mistake i pour water in my ip .
Bless you!! I am so grateful that there is no music!! Thank you so much! ❤
I didn't think I would learn this many tips. When you mentioned cleaning the water drip catcher I was like, "omg i forgot to clean it yesterday!" thank you!
If you use an extension cord with your instant pot you need to use a heavier gauge Appliance cord because a regular extension cord can't handle the amount of Watts that the instant pot uses.
came here to say this. absolutely nothing wrong electrically when using the right cord. mine is 18 awg and can be found by searching for heavy duty extension or 18awg extension. that being said, do be careful if you need to use any extension cord because of the increased likelyhood of tripping over or accidentaly pulling on the cord... which could be bad news. short cords are a safety feature for many appliances...
@@robertgoetsch6790 ah shutuppa you face www.homedepot.com/p/CERTIFIED-APPLIANCE-ACCESSORIES-3-ft-14-3-1-Wire-Conductor-Extension-Cord-15-0303/309364982?mtc=Shopping-B-F_Brand-G-Multi-NA-Multi-NA-Feed-PLA-NA-NA-Catchall_PLA&cm_mmc=Shopping-B-F_Brand-G-Multi-NA-Multi-NA-Feed-PLA-NA-NA-Catchall_PLA-71700000014585962-58700001236285396-92700010802552412&gclsrc=aw.ds&&gclid=Cj0KCQiA7OnxBRCNARIsAIW53B8ntZpVL6uXXLfyYxSJ6PqgDMniMLXkTFwvTGlwq8juLfbApLFaplgaAtivEALw_wcB
@@robertgoetsch6790 Wrong way! 18 awg is smaller than 16, which most household extension cords are. Wire gauge numbers are backwards, smaller number is larger wire. 14 awg will handle 1500 watts up to a reasonable distance, 25' or so.
Thanks for that tip
I totally agree, In our RV I have to be careful with overloading circuits, I installed a dedicated 20 amp outlet for a portable air conditioner, now that it is winter I use a heavy duty 14 gauge / 10 ft. long extension cord and plug in any high draw appliance I need it for. works great. I have used it for portable electric heater, air fryer, instant pot, counter top dishwasher... the list goes on. never a problem if you use the correct equipment.
I prefer no music. Thanks for asking. I’m watching you for INFORMATION, not ENTERTAINMENT. I lost my manual before I ever began using it. In essence, you are my manual! I’ve learned much from you, and I find your personality quite charming. It’s obvious you spend a lot of time preparing your videos. I even like the fact that you make mistakes, as we all do.
My husband and I just got the 8 quart one. I made a vegetable beef soup in 35 minutes. I am in love!!! Thank you for all the information so I don't make mistakes.
Mine arrives tomorrow! #1 about not putting it on glass stovetop is really good to know. Thank you for all of your tips!
You've only been on 3 weeks?! You are such a pro! I love your presentation style and voice. I prefer no or very low background noise because sometimes it's very distracting. Keep the great content coming and thank you😁
SO kind!! thank you!!!
I can't stress enough how helpful this was, it was straight and to the point, thank you.
Really very good comprehensive advise pasted on! She deserves a great big thumps up!❤😊
No music, thanks! Really enjoy your videos.
Thank you for no music. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
\h8bmp
I just imagine her going through like 26 instapots after destroying them in the ways she describes in this video 😂
No Music .. its clearer and easier for me to understand without background noise thank you :)
as a first dish, I highly recommend making beans. If you have never made beans on the stove or in a crock pot though, do that first. We've been making beans "the old fashioned way" for years i.e. without the added pressure of a pressure cooker. Waiting for them to be done can definitely turn you off to making beans. BUT! It goes WAY faster in a pressure cooker. I just start boiling the beans without seasoning in the instant pot, and after 20 or 30 minutes I can dump out the water, rinse the beans and add seasoning and water to cook them. I usually add a can of diced tomatoes and a pound of raw ground turkey. Shredded sharp cheddar, diced fresh onion and Fritos are my favorite toppings. Homemade frito pie!
Hey, just wanted to make the comment that my husband who fixes furnaces heard your last tip, and he said that your problem is likely that you're using an extension cord with too small of a gauge. A heavy-duty extension cord should fix the problem. Doesn't have to be longer, just a thicker gauge.
First time watching...was great..no fluff, no mush , just pure info. Congrats.
No music= better. Thanks for the wonderful tips. I'm a truck driver and just ordered one so I can cook on the road.
Thank you so much! I've never used my instant pot and was looking for ideas and came across your video. I definitely would not have known not to do the quick release and would have 100% made a mess or hurt myself. Thank you for sparing me mistakes!!
I made a main dish as my first dish with the instant pot (well Yeti) and promptly fell in love with it. It hasn't failed me yet. I love it. It's wonderful.
For anyone that wants to know what dish to start with, the answer is beef stew. NOTHING makes beef stew better than the instant pot.
is there any good web page for recepies like that? :] really want to do beef stew right now :D:D
@@thelast1090 Pressure Luck Cooking has some great instant pot recipes on youtube and his website as well as a cooking book. I would also recommend Sam The Cooking Guy youtube for some more general recipes. Keep looking around.
Chili is a great one too! It was the first meal I made and I knew I made the right choice getting it.
Is that pot roast?
Or whatever they want
No music is much better. Nothing to distract!!! Thank you...you are a doll.
I fully enjoyed watching and listening to what you said in the video.
No distracting music is excellent.
Great tips; thank you! I prefer either no music while you're talking, or very LOW music. Most TH-camrs put their music on too loud or use music that is really irritating...which is very distracting.
No music is better while you're speaking👍
27. Don't use the Instapot as a flotation device in case of a water landing.
Got it! Giggle..
genius! why didn't i include this!?
That's one interesting carry-on to have to explain to TSA.
You have some experience with this?
Can you explain please?
I am a seasoned Instant Pot user and found your video a great reminder of the do's and don'ts. The only one I disagreed with was the last one. I have been using my Instant Pot with an extension cord for years without a problem. The only reason I can think of for your experience, is using the incorrect extension cord. Extension cords have varying degrees of wattage, just like lightbulbs. When using for an appliance you need an extension cord that is rated for that use. These will have three prongs and are generally flat with a three ribbed cord. And I don't recommend buying one from the dollar store. They are more expensive, but your safety is worth it, as they carry a lot more power. Otherwise, great video.
Thank you! You answered all my questions!
Thanks so much. I'm a beginner so I'm researching everything there is to know before actually cooking anything.
In your research, read the manual, including "troubleshooting". Also, check the picture of your IP to make certain you have all its parts. Another thing, when buying a cookbook, it’s nice if it has Instant Pots approval label.
@@moncher2797 u cud just download their free app! It has alot of recipes
Me too! I’m a little nervous 😩🙏🏻
Wow!
This should come with the pot!
When I was growing up,my mom
tried to use a new one,the very first time the lid flew up to the ceiling!
She disposed of it,I was to afraid to buy one.
I enjoy cooking and Value what you teach.
No music is ok,you are beautiful and your voice is lovely to listen too.
Bye,Margo from the Bronx
I'm glad there's no music - I can hear you clearly without missing a thing or trying to see if subs are working
Thank a lot for your video,it's fantastic, better than the manual book you explain it so well now I am not scared to use it,I feel confident.
Quick note: if you are having problems with an extension cord,. you are likely using a cheap (lamp) extension. If you have an industrial grade extension (15-20A. like used for power tools), It should be fine. Hard to find one 6 ft or shorter, but I have one. I haven't tried it with the pot, because I have no need. And it's busy extending my microwave oven ;)
#7 was an AWESOME TIP!!
Who wouldve thought....
Just turn the lid UPSIDE DOWN....
Duh 🤦🏻♀️
GLAD YOU DID!! 🙌🏻
You Rock!!!! Just got mine 2 wks ago and have been using it everyday sometimes 3 times a day for my fam and others. I had no idea how to store it away properly. Super grateful for the video
Great tips! Make oatmeal first and eggs for egg salad second. =) Third meal - make pressure cooked beef short ribs - big payoff on that one.
Big tip for me... learn how to use the timer. I love waking up and having breakfast (oatmeal - just oats and water) ready for the kids already.
What kind of crazy person dislikes this video? it is straight to the point solid information presented as clear as possible
Great tips, especially regarding storing the lid and sealing ring. Good advice. And NO MUSIC is best. Your primary purpose is to inform, not entertain.
Hi Linda from Vancouver Island.
Your Tutorials are excellent. You are talented, helpful, caring, knowledgable and so sweet. Appreciate your videos very much. Thank you!
Excellent tips. Even those of us who have been cooking for years can learn a thing or two from your video. As far as the music goes: This is the first video of yours that I've watched, so I can't compare with/without for yours, but I usually find that music with an instructional video distracts rather than enhances.
Here is another DON'T : Don't use the Instant Pot without putting the sealing ring on!!! (Yep, I did it...twice!)
I guess the third time is a charm....lol, I think it could be easily forgotten, if stored as suggested, it should be the first thing you put together on the lid.
I did it once when I tried to cook meatball pasta. But to my surprise the pasta turned out fine! Not sure if I damaged the pot though....it happened last month and so far my instant pot is still working. I will keep my fingers crossed!
@@yujuti8416 I don't think you damaged anything, it just prevents the pot from building up pressure and then pressure cooking. if you were using it as a slow cooker it should not have made any difference.
I did it once. It’s because I always take the ring out after use to wash it & hang dry it. Amazingly, the food was actually STEAM cooked.
LOL
Thank you, I amnw and got two good points from you about the lid and the ring. Also the back moisture collector.
Best video if you are thinking of buying an instapot and want to learn about it. The no music was perfect. Most of the time I find music distracting. Also thank you for using your natural perfect voice. I think that fake gravelly voice that some people have adopted is like nails on a chalkboard so thank you for not doing that. You have an amazing voice. You would be great as a voiceover artist
I looking to buy an Instant Pot and researching how to use it. This information, although some of it is common sense, is great for a noob like me. Thank you for this video.
No music is good! Thank you for the 26 tips!! I’m new to your channel n new to using my insta pot.
Thanks for this!!! I'm a newbie and I watched a couple of your vids to get started. Really appreciate them.
these points were very to the point. I didn't know about storing it with the lid upside down and forgot about cleaning the back liquid trap and taking out the seal when storing. thanks for the tips
Thanks so much for the helpful video Lisa! I was scared of making mistakes as a beginner, but this video covers so much!
#27 Don’t forget to put the seal back on your instant pot before using it after cleaning it. I've done this more than once. It will function without the seal, but it won't work. This is a great video. I felt the face palm of mistakes I've made and learned some new stuff too.😁👍
This is so helpful as I have a Phillips All in One pressure cooker instead.Good to know about correct storage and the dairy products in pressure cooking.So true about cook times as yes it needs extra time to heat up etc.Thankyou so much!😁
Very good, heart-felt advice for all of us. I totally appreciate what you've said. I want a six-quart so bad. I'd use it to make beans... I adore beans and rice. Thanks so much for your help.
I made my whole thanksgiving dinner the first time I used it haha
i DID NOT know about the condensation collecor. lol its still sitting in the box. never used that thing till i saw this video
How does it come off?
@@kathy32850 it slides towards you. Not down.
I never use it and still won’t
You must not have read the manual. Unfortunately, with TH-cam, people are losing the ability to read. I saw a video the other day and 97% of the comments said what a great video it was, yatta, yatta. Most of them didn’t even realize she was missing parts of her Instant Pot! But "it was great...". Obviously the lady who made the video didn’t read her manual either!
GREAT tips, thank you so much!
Just excellent, perfectly clear and soooooo helpful!!
Just got mine today and am so glad i first watched ur vid!!!
All the best yo you.
A must-watch for new owners like me. Thank you! One question about your instructions to not use milk as the liquid in a recipe. Does this mean when the only liquid is milk? I used a mixture of liquids that included milk and cream (didn't have half/half) to make risotto and had no problems with the results (in fact it was perfect). How much milk is too much milk? As for music/no music. I vote for no music.
Thank you for being quick and to the point! You were my 4th video search! Glad I found your video
Thank you!! It is so helpful. Perfect without music.
No music is always appreciated because it more often than not is distracting. I've never used an instant pot, and now that you have totally exhausted me with the don't s, I've made one note for myself. Don't buy and instant pot. Grin. Great video....
Thank you for these videos Lisa!!! I've had mine for quite some time and I have not started really using it at all. Your videos, tutorials, and recipes are helping me ease into it! Thank you so much and please keep doing what you do!
Thank you! I like the presentation without music. I am a very experienced instant pot user so I knew most of what you presented. I admit I didn’t know that the slow cooking function cooks at a lower temp than a regular crock pot. I’ve not ever used that function as I like my slow cooked food in stone ware.
I always leave my instant pot on the back burner of my glass top stove. It never occurred to me someone could turn on the burner. It’s just my husband and me, so that’s not going to happen. I like the convenience of the exhaust fan right above the pot when I release pressure. Just make sure when you release pressure you don’t direct the steam at the light bulbs. I never had an issue in my house, but I once broke the bulbs in my son’s house.
Nice presentation!
My wife also puts it on our gas stove. She puts a baking sheet on the grating so the IP has a more stable base. A round pizza pan would also work.
@@philso7872 I use a glass plate from a microwave that I got at a thrift store, which has them every once in a while. I was lucky enough to get a round one that exactly fits under the Instant Pot. Did this because using the IP directly on the counter discolored the counter top.
I put mine on the stove all the time, usually on a large wooden cutting board from Ikea. But this video is geared toward beginners so advacned users can do whatever they please as long as they know what NOT to do! ;)
Good idea putting a cutting board or pizza pan under the pot. Thanks!
Of course a slow cooker cooks at a lower temperature 🤷♀️.
Good job, you are very clear and concise. I appreciate it that you aren't distracting us with music and extra chat.
Excellent video. So many of the tips are good old common sense things BUT can easily be forgotten in the excitement of using a new kitchen appliance. So it's great that you took the time to remind us all. Oh, and no music really helped you get your point across clearly. Well done. Thanks
Great job explaining everything. This is the most thorough video and explanations I've seen since I open my instant pot. It doesn't matter to me with or without music. It's your video, so run it however you like.
This video is awesome! Thank you SOOOO much for sharing!🥰
Thank you very much for all of your tips. I have had my instant pot for 2 years. I have been very unsure on how to use the pot since pressure is involved. I have learned a lot today from your videos.
excellent tips! Thank you!
I didn't think I'd get any useful tips from this but I did! Actually my pot is still in its packaging... Yet to open! 🙈🤭
I didn't take mine out of the box for at least a month bkz I'd heard so many stories of wasted food and just not knowing how to use the thing. Do open it!!! After only a few attempts, you'll kick yourself for waiting so long. Definitely stay tuned to this lady and also look at pressureluckcooking.com -- his recipes always come out great.
I ❤️❤️❤️ this video! I enjoy videos without music. It’s more relaxing. THANK YOU!
Hello how are you doing today ❤️
Thanks for sharing. Just purchased one and this helped.
I really loved these tips and you being so adorable made this extremely easy to watch ❤ thank you 😊
Definitely no background music. Thank you. Love the tip to store the lid upside down!
Hello how are you doing today ❤️
I've had my IP for about 5 years but thought I'd watch this anyway. SO glad I did as used the slow cooker function only once and never again as the food wasn't cooked - I had no idea this is different from usual slow cookers. Also would not have known about the extension lead - thank you! Great vid and great to have no music and be able to hear you :)
Fantastic video. I love the comfort of learning 'what not to do' rather than learning the hard way.
So glad to learn about not storing the sealing ring in the lid. Even though I had a tutor who knew how to use an instant pot teach me how, but she didn't say to take out the ring. Thanks much.
Love the site. Number 27, do not use the stainless steel liner for any cooking except as liner in Instant Pot. Not on stove top. and not baking in oven. Thank you.
I just purchased the duo crisp. I'm watching tons of videos BEFORE I start. Great information.
Really good video. She spoke clearly and gave good tips for beginners. Wish I had seen this when I got my first insta pot.
Thank you. Very good advice for beginners.
Great video, Lisa! I had many people request no music in my videos as well. And tip #27 don’t be scared of your Instant Pot. :)
Im scared after this! 😂
Great tips since I’m new to this instant pot and learning!
I didn't mind the music myself.
And thanks for all of these tips because I just got an instant pot for Christmas and I am learning how to use it and you have been so helpful!
Thank you for the tips. I just bought an instant pot and this makes me feel more confident in testing things out.
