1:55 what fits into 3 quart mini 2:23 3 qt is 10.1 psi, but 6 or 8 qt is 11.6 psi. Hard beans and tough meat takes extra 15 minutes longer than the 6 qt. Other recipes take 2 to 10 minutes longer. 3 qt also needs min. 1 cup of water or liquid to bring pressure unless juicy ingredients as mushroom or chicken. 4:35 3qt for cooking grains, same ratio
I have an 8 qt and a 3 qt Instant Pot. I use the 3qt almost daily for sides like rice or potatoes or pastas. I have used 3/4 cup water to 3/4 cup converted long grain white rice and it comes out perfect. I have even used packaged rice sides in the 3qt and they work better than stove top - no burning/sticking to the pot. Thanks for this video though, I didn't realize that cooking time would increase in the 3qt. Though when I think about it, yeah it would LOL.
My sister talked me into buying an IP……She uses her larger one almost daily. I love my little IP…… But..most recipes are for the larger ones... So this video is very helpful. Thanks.
❤Love the 3qt❤I used two simultaneously to complete different aspects of thanksgiving dinner❤What? Two?-Who does not use two pans ant the same time❤My family came from out of country for Thanksgiving as a surprise. Fortunately, I was able to cook a turkey from frozen. And, I was able to cook EVERYTHING to finish at all at the same time.❤Yea! INSTANT POT❤
That is great information to know and I love my Instant Pot and just purchased one for my brother and sister-n-law for Christmas. I use my 3 Qt pot to cook some of the food I eat in and love how it performs. The times does make a difference and I am still trying to get them correctly so I don't under cook or over cook my food.
IMHO the best you tube video re comparison between 3 and 6 quart instant pot As a novice I am more interested in food amount cooked and not pot size comparison which other sites do (and is pointless) Big thank u - 3 quart for me -/ :-)
Karen,,,thanks so much for all your great info and expertise,,,i have a question/concern....Sunday, I made a pot roast w potatoes, carrots and onions. It had the most awful metallic odor /taste!! I was wondering if you ever had this happen to you OR if you ever heard of anyone having this occur? It does seem to be A THING on the web.....I was incredulous and am stumped! Thanks for any advice/insight you might have.
As I am currently looking into buying the 3qt IP, I'm wondering if this problem with metallic flavor in your foods persisted. This is the first mention of it I've come across.
I have a 3 quart instant pot that I bought purposefully. It says that it has low medium and high pressure. When do I use each pressure setting? When I make rice I have been using the medium pressure setting. I’m not sure what to do about the different settings. I would appreciate your comment about it. Thank you
I’m thinking about ordering the 3qt instant pot but am wondering what size jars would fit to make yogurt. I have the 6 qt Ninja Foodi, but want to try the sous vide & yogurt function on the IP-I want to get the Pro
I'd love to ask, is it ok to take ⅔ cup of rice and ⅔ cup of water in the 3l mini IP? Or is it too little because it means the minimum liquid for that pot is ½ cup of water. Thanks 😊
I use my 3qt for rice almost exclusively. I can’t remember where I saw it but the recommendation (somewhere where the writer was experienced) I got was 1:1 rice to water so that’s the way I cook it. The rice comes out pretty sticky even after rinsing it half a dozen times. Any suggestions for fluffier rice?
My little instant pot mini book says to use 1 cup of rice to 1 & 1/2 cups of water a pinch of salt and cook using manual setting for 4 minutes, I let it count on warm using the 10 minute natural release. My rice comes out great every time. Hope this tip helps.
So, I needed to replace my worn out rice cooker. The day I was shopping, the 3-quart ultra mini was on sale and cost the same as a rice cooker. I was pretty excited as I bought the IP, knowing the use value would be much higher than the rice cooker anyway. I have a 6-quart already but am in love with my cute little 3-quart. 😉 I really appreciate your tips and info. Thank you.
Winner of a video, I have been researching "what does it mean when an instant pot says burn?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Penaniel Foremost Primacy - (just google it )? It is a good exclusive guide for discovering how to use great pot recipes to make a delicious meal minus the hard work. Ive heard some great things about it and my cousin got excellent results with it.
Good stuff.. I just trade'd in my 8 qrt for a 3 qrt instant pot duo. in the back side next to the plug there's a stiker and under it has 2 dimples. Is that normal ? I only ask due to I got it from amazon ! It kinda looks like there's screws under it. I just don't want it to have dents that might compromises the insulation.
Let's have a talk about your channel name, "365 days of pressure cooking"........ surely whatever you're cooking would be cooked in a pressure cooker far sooner than 365 days? I don't know of anything that takes 365 days to fully cook.
This video is just a 6 minute monologue and doesn’t show anything. There might be useful content, but I was bored and clicked off after 2 minutes of monotone “talk”. Sorry. 🤷♂️
Not very helpful. Would be soooooo much easier if the person making the video would simply say this recipe is for a 3 (6 or 8) qt instant pot and provide any instructions on adjusted the receipe. The instant pot app helps but it just makes adjustments for serving size so I still don't know if I can make the recipe in my mini.

Thanks! Subscribed. Just got my first Instant Pot Pro 3 Quart. First pressure cooker of any type. 61 years and finally gonna try!
How are you enjoying your Instant Pot Larry? I will be getting a 3qt as well soon and I hope that it will make cooking a lot easier. Thanks.

I just watched a couple of videos where they cooked a 4 1/2 lb whole chicken in the mini! Looking forward to doing that!

As the other person said, about 4 minutes on high pressure, 10 minutes natural release.
Great helpful information!
Great info thanks
Omg!!! So glad I saw this on google!!!
I just got the 3qt.
Now, I need to learn how to use it.
Can I do steel cut oats?
Steel cut oats cook nicely in the IP equipment. The rule for foamy foods might be wise to apply here.
So it cooks but it never show me the time remaining
Can u fit a mason jar in it?
yes
Glass not recommended by glass jar manufacturer.
Can you use the instant pot to can 1 small jar of say home made chili
No

How to use a 3quart instant pot
I find cooking meat boneless pork chops the cooking time is too long.
Anyone else or do I have super hero 3 quart 😅
Great information can you email me the 3 quart. Measurement
Me lost in the video.
Have you tried to can vegetable in your pressure cooker? Any thoughts?
@@karenbellessapeterse thank you!
The pressure cooker is not for canning/preserving food.
Let's have a talk about your channel name, "365 days of pressure cooking"........ surely whatever you're cooking would be cooked in a pressure cooker far sooner than 365 days? I don't know of anything that takes 365 days to fully cook.

Not helpful.
I cannot figure out how to do the water test on the mini so no help at all.
