Thank you. I appreciate your time to teach how to use this model of Instant Pot. Your explanation is very clear. I was following you while I was cooking the rips.
I have this model and this is such a thorough feature walk through and review! I didn’t even realize there were so many presets! Yes, I misplaced my manual 😂. Thank you!
This video is concise and to the point. Which is exactly what a review should be. Very informative, And as we all know the Insta pot manuals are bare bones. In fact with all the warnings all over them and not even a decent recipe to start you out it’s kind of intimidating for some. And by the way the first thing I did with mine was turn off the sound :-)
thank you so much to show us the basic approach of this instant pot, I very hope you will share your recipes, at this point I will be glad to fallow you. Have a wonderful summer. and thanks again
This video was SO informative. I've been procrastinating buying an IP because I have a stove top pressure cooker that still works well and don't need two. I'm glad I waited since the improvements look to be very helpful. I'd be very interested in seeing how it bakes. That might push me over the edge.
I hope you didn’t toss out your steam diffuser like she must have. She was doing a video & her IP has missing parts! She didn’t seem aware of the part was missing! This is what happens when people don’t read the manual & check to make certain all parts are present.
Thank you for reviewing this. I decided to return mine. (Maybe this will help someone else decide whether the Duos Evo Plus is for them. ) It does have great features -- stove top pot, better handles, etc-- but it really doesn't replace the Slow Cooker (crockpot) because the heat cooks only from the bottom. The yogurt setting, even custom to 115° only heated the bottom, the rest of the yogurt mixture stayed below 90° . I think the Instant Pot might work for larger busy families. Between my clay cooker, cast iron and crockpot, I can do most everything ok.
Wonderful video and this is my favorite Instant Pot by far. I love the pot handles, what an improvement.I love the large screen with so many settings. Love love love my Duo Plus 8 quart.
I hope you read the manual because she is missing parts in her video! Please compare your parts to the picture in your manual. She is missing the steam diffuser. She isn’t even aware it’s missing. Some reacher. She hasn’t responded to the people who asked why it was left out.
Great review. I purchased the Duo Evo before Christmas and am going to do my first cook with it for St. Patrick's Day. It seems simple enough to cook the corned beef first and then do the carrots, potatoes and cabbage next then marry them all together in a serving dish. Thanks for taking some of the mystery out of using this product and I look forward to future reviews from you.
No more questions to ask except "why are you showing the Instant Pot with MISSING PARTS?" She won’t answer the viewers who asked about the missing steam diffuser. It was a new upgrade & she is unaware it’s missing. I’m betting she tossed it as packing material. If she had read the manual to make sure she had all the parts, she would have noticed it was missing.
I’m addicted to Instant Pots, too. Did you notice she tossed the diffuser from the steam assembly? I couldn’t believe she was giving an instructional video, which us pretty good, with the exception that the Instant Pot is missing a part & she doesn’t seem to notice it. I think she thought it was packing & tossed it. I always read the manual right away & check to see if all parts are present. The diffuser was/is a new feature for those who hate the steam jet. Watch PressureLuck & you’ll see what it does.
Hello, enjoyed the video. BUT, why wasn"t the steam release diffuser cap that comes with it , installed ? This very nice upgrade was missing in the video !
I just watched this video today and noticed the missing diffuser. I noticed another person asked about it, too and she has not replied to either of you! My theory is, she thought it was packing material (!?!) and tossed it out. This is a perfect example of why people need to read manuals first & look at the picture of parts so you can make certain you aren’t missing any parts. It’s kind of frustrating that she’s teaching people & missed one of the upgrades. Then all of these unaware viewers are saying "what an excellent video...you’re a great teacher...". I would think more of her if she had corrected the error when you & the other person had mentioned it.
I wonder why you didn't mention or use the steam diffuser. I'm not new to pressure cooking, but I just bought this and wanted to see it an action. Thank you.
I noticed the missing steam diffuser, too. I think she tossed it out, thinking it was packing. This is an example of why one needs to read the manual first. I hope other people don’t do the same thing because of her error. It was a good video but wow, a major mistake. She needs to correct the video. If you want to see the steam diffuser in action, watch PressureLuck, he’s great. The man even wrote an Instant Pot cook book!
@@bestkitchenreviews honestly, instant pot should just save the paper and throw away the manual. Just put a QR code on the box with a link to your video.
I would like to know if the custom temperature settings are accurate. For eg. is Instapot's 140degrees really 140 degrees w/ a thermometer? What is the temperature for the slow cook low & high settings? With past models I've read that they run really low & take nearly double the time as traditional slow cooker.
I have been using my instapot Duo Evo Plus for two weeks and just now seeing this video. I did not realize how much stuff my Appliance actually did, thanks for the video. P.S. where can I buy replacement float valve for this pressure cooker? Thanks.
I haven't seen any yogurt recipes for the Duo Evo Plus that I can understand in english. Can you please explain or show recipes on here? Much appreciated!
Really nice looking features. Do you know if this model fits the air fryer attachment Instant Pot sells? It’s sold separately and doesn’t fit every model.
I want to get a Duo Evo Plus (6qt); however, the power cord (30") is too short. If you know, is it permanently attached to the cooker, or can you unplug it from the cooker to replace it with a longer cord? If you can replace it or you can plug an extension into the 30" cord, how long an extension can you get, and what specs must the cord meet?
Hi Roger, the 6qt's power cord is removable and 8qt is hardwired. An extension cord is not recommended. There are longer power cords available online to fit different instant pot models but it is unclear if they fit this model.
Here is the link to the instruction manual, page 48 has instructions on how to make yogurt: instantpot.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Duo-Evo-Plus_Full-Manual_20190923.pdf
Hi, the manual can be viewed on Instant Pot's website: instantpot.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Duo-Evo-Plus-English-Full-Manual_2020-05-12-INTERACTIVE.pdf
@@bestkitchenreviews could i fit a whole chicken in the 6qt one or would i need to go for the 8qt one? does the extra size make it easier to cook and stir and size wize how much more portable/versitile is the smaller one on a worktop space?
Is this a new video Anita?. I havn't seen this one before. As I'm not on my computer or laptop I never know when it's a new one. Anita, please stop making me hank marvin all the time lol .
If I don’t want to use pressure then how the heck do I skip the preheat phase?! I am trying to cook chili and it’s been on preheat forever and I’m sick of this. I can’t seem to find a video that even acknowledges this problem. How do I skip preheat.
I swear if you can’t skip preheat for non-pressurized cooking then this thing is about as dumb as a rock. Even a 1980s crock pot can turn the main heat on immediately.
Hi Ryan, your chili is already done but here are instructions for the next time: after you close the lid, move the quick release switch to vent position. Press Slow Cook, turn dial and choose Chili. Turn dial again if you want to adjust time or press dial to use default time. Then you can choose low or high setting for temperature or keep default setting 😁
@@bestkitchenreviews my question was how to skip the preheat phase. After I do all you said it still goes into the preheat phase. How do you skip preheating? I am not using pressure (don't want or need to for my chili). The lid I am using is just the glass lid. It stayed in preheat for 90 minutes due to the weight of the chili! I used the slow cook option you mentioned (slow cook-chili-low heat). It was embarrasing to make my guest wait so long for the meal...ruined my whole night. I need to skip preheating!
I just got this model. You answered almost every question and gave me a lot of ideas! Well done. You’re a terrific teacher

I just go the Duo Evo Plus 6 today. Thank you very much for your demonstration. I’ll be a first time user. Any suggestions for recipes? No cookbook.
Hi Kathy, please watch my other Instant Pot Videos for recipes. There are also many recipes on Instant Pot’s website 😀

Did you get the C8/C7 error??
Have you done the baking function review?

Press yogurt setting. Fill with milk add sugar and bacteria regards Emily
please show how to boil milk. And if it is Possible to use the instant pot duoevo plus to cook like when you have a hob.

You don't have the cover over the steam vent that comes with it?
Can you help me how to do it,Thanx
I am also wondering why you're not using the steam diffuser. It's one of the new features.
Really nice looking features. Do you know if this model fits the air fryer attachment Instant Pot sells? It’s sold separately and doesn’t fit every model.
DO NOT USE the Air Fryer Lid with the Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus, Smart WiFi, Duo SV, or the Instant Pot Max
You are good !!!
Is this still the best instant pot? Im thinking to get but not sure which one to go for.
my instant pot duo evo plus also has a plastic lid that clips onto the steam valve,did you have one on yours? i notice there is a place for it
You should do a review on nutribullet combo blender
Do you know if they have a non stick pot for this version?
Very handy pot
Thank you.

Do I take off the cap over the steam part?
I have an air fryer, and a crock pot, am I missing out? Do I need this?
Only if you pressure cook things like meat, beans etc. It saves time with ingredients that require a long cooking time 😁
