Thank you; additionally I'd recommend 1.5x speed.
Thanks
or go to 3:16 and get the explanation in under 30 seconds lol
Thank you
Great video!! Thanks !! I kept looking for a button that said natural release !!! 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ they really should put this somewhere in the manual!!!
Thank you so much for this video! As a beginner, I'm pretty intimidated by (i.e. scared lol) of pressure cooking. This really helped!
SAME! I can only figure out so much in reading, the videos are extremely helpful!
Ditto!
Okay!! I felt like i was gping to create a bomb with my beef stew!! 😁
Same 😂 I got an instant pot 9 in 1 for Xmas and I've only used a regular old crock pot before, and most UA-cam recipes seem to assume you've used an instant pot before and it's so overwhelming 😂😂
I like how detailed you explain things. This thing can be very intimidating. Growing up I was taught how dangerous a pressure cooker could be so I avoided it like the plague. I didn’t even want to wash it 😂.
OMG! In all of the internet I havent been able to find such a simple explanation of the release functions! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm new to the Instant Pot world and was really confused (after reading the instructions) on the whole pressure release subject. This was outstanding and helpful. The makers of Instant Pot should licence this video or link to it. Thanks!!!
Thank you! I don’t get why no recipes seem to explain this, especially when it’s an easy recipe that only real beginners will be reading
Right? Even UA-cam video recipes, they all seem to assume you've used an instant pot before ! Lol
This was a great explanation. It was one of the only questions I had that I couldn't figure out myself with certainty. Thank you!
Thank you for this! i just got an instant pot a week ago and didn't understand this part at all! LOL! Thank you!
Thank you! This was huge for me! Pot has been sitting in garage for months before I was brave enough to open it. My first attempt brought the “burnt” message and freaked me out. Finally, tried a basic rice recipe that turned out perfect.
Thank you so much!!! Super easy explanation! I just bought an instant pot and finished my test with the water and was ready to cook some Indian chicken when I read, “5 min high + 10 min natural release.” I was baffled how I program that! Lol. Mystery solved. Gained yourself a grateful subscriber 🙏🏻
Thank you for clearing up the suspense. I am of the old school were it was not uncommon for a pressure cooker to "blow up in your face" and my aunt actually had this happen. I think I am ready to actually use my IP now. Thank you once again for this and all of your IP tips and tricks, also the wonderful recipes you are so kind to send out to us.
Are you still going strong with your IP?
Thank you for this video. My mom bought and shipped me an Instant Pot today for Mother's Day. This is my first time using it & I was nervous because I don't want to get burned LOL. So this video helped me understand because baby the instructions were not that great🤣 Thank you for this🤗
THANK YOU! I finally understand that the pressure needs to build up before the actual cook time starts!! So so so helpful
Omgosh tysm i just made rice in the pot and didn't release cuz i was waiting for my silver thing to drop before i touched it. Needless to say i had instapaste! Lol Thank you for breaking this down so nicely Second pot was a success! ❤❤New subscriber! And very grateful family thanks to your explanation 😂
Thanks for making this! Just got one for Christmas and was scared of it haha, I'm a visual learner so this puts me at ease 👍
I had an issue opening the IP lid. YOUR extremely helpful video saved me a breakdown, thinking I had a defective IP - THANK YOU! You re my new "best friend"!
Extremely good directions for a new and confused new IP owner such as me. Thank you.
Just now cooking great northern beans with natural release. Using my farberware instant pot for the first time. Thanks for the easy to follow visual using natural release
Ty so much for your explanation….i had made some chicken and dumplings and didn’t know how the natural release worked and used quick release. Needless to say it was a “scene”! I had what seemed like a the dumplings mixed with the chicken broth springing out of my vent spout all over my floor , counters, stove and vent hood nearby etc. 😳🫣😱 Now I know how to not make the same mistake again! Ty for explaining! 🤗
Thank you for this. Love the details and clear explanation. I was always following quick release until today 😢 Will see how my lentils turn out with natural release now
Thank you, I had to watch 30 videos to find this information. Almost had pressure burn my face because others skip some steps, just trying to cook rice.
Thank you! Such a simple, basic thing but I couldn't find it explained anywhere. Very helpful.
I just opened my new hot pot I was a bit uncertain about starting….thank you so much 💗💗💗💗💗
Great video ! Put me at ease while making my first meal with my new Instant Pot ! Knowing that I (or my kids) can't accidentally open a high pressure SOUP BOMB makes me way more comfortable ; ) THANK YOU !!!
Thanks for explaining the instapot pressure release so thoroughly! Just made chicken soup for sick husband.
I needed this. Thanks in advance. I never knew there was SO many do's & don't with this pot. Smh.
I’ve actually used my Instant Pot before (I was initially scared too, folks), but haven’t pulled it out for a few years since my husband went into hospice. I’d completely forgotten what the difference was between quick & natural, so when I read a recipe from an Instant Pot cookbook & it said quick release, I wanted to make sure I understood!
Thanks also for reminding me that setting the time for, say, one minute does NOT mean that everything will be finished in one minute! It will take time for the pressure to build up!
Hoping my Chicken Teriyaki turns out well! 👍🏽
Edited to add: NOPE! Can’t get the pot to come to pressure! Followed the recipe. Checked again. After an HOUR of it not coming to pressure, stopped to quick release & start over. ZERO pressure had built up. Switched out the gasket ring, made sure it was in place correctly, started over again. In fifteen minutes, the timer had only gone down 15 seconds & it appears there is still no pressure! I’ve checked the lid to make sure it’s on right. Made sure that the release valve is in the correct potion (sealed). Incredibly frustrating when this was SO easy to deal with before, and now I can’t figure out what’s wrong with it.
Edited AGAIN: Figured it out! The cookbook I was using referenced the controls for the newer Duo; mine is an older version, so I kept trying to use the "TIMER" feature for the four minute setting, instead of just hitting "MANUAL" and adjusting the time.
Thank u so much! Had no idea what a natural release was vs a forced release. Thank u again! Just made my first beef stew. Going to use the natural release and see what happens!
Newbie! Enjoying my Instant Pot. My husband convinced me vs a crockpot. I appreciate your explanation!
Thank you for a great explanation of the difference between the too
Thank you, I needed this. The fact that nothing happens at all during a natural release is confusing.. TY!
Thank you for this. Finally got one for Christmas and I've been intimidated by it but now after watching this video and several others I'm using it tonight to make my hubby a birthday dinner!! Wish me luck lol
Ahhh Thank you never mind, about what you were pointing at for natural relates. I just read natural release is more of an inaction than action. Once the cook time counts down and the pot beeps indicating time is up, leave it alone. You’ll know that the pressure has been released once the float valve the red or silver pressure pin on top of lid drops back down in the lid, making a clicking sound.
This is the best explanation. You cover every small detail which is important for a beginner
Very helpful...! Manual and pressure is the same... which helped as well...and the venting and pressure valve explanation helped...!! And the time in between everything being turned on.
Best video I've found regarding this. Thank you so much!!!!
Thanks for sharing and explaining! Everyone has been raving about these instant pots and here I am not understanding the concept of QR and NR. I kinda get it now I guess I was just more afraid of messing up and it explodes or something (I'll see blogs that say "yeah you can set it, take a walk and come back!"). I've also had the lid get stuck too and panicked haha. I can't wait to get the hang of this cause it's sooo much better than standing around the stove all day and watching the food cook.
Thank you so much This thing scares me I just got one today. Now makes more sense cuz that valve up top is super loose and was kind of freaking me out lol. Thank you for taking the time You have a new subscriber!
Thank you for sharing! I've had my pot for awhile but afraid of the steam valve. Now i see how easy it is.
This is by far the best video I’ve found for newbies. THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for the video. I just got my Insta Pot. I needed this information.
It would be nice if the Pot came with a manual, but then I wouldn’t have searched for information and found this very helpful video. Many thanks!!
I just started using my Instant Pot and this video was really helpful in understanding the difference between releases! Thank you!
Brendi Ferreras same! All the reading I did seemed to assume I just knew what they meant. This was super helpful.
Great description and very straight forward.
Tip on closing the unit (short turn where it won't let you close it). It's that the heat inside is causing the pressure indicator to push up just enough to not let it close (rotate). If you press on the valve button (silver button on video here) it will allow you to turn it closed (or set the pressure release tab to open, then turn it back to clockwise (pressure valve closed position) after lid is back on.
The little bit of steam pressure build up after initial opening is still enough to not allow the lid to close (similar to why the safety feature prevents you from opening it when the pressure is too high).
damn you really made 365 different crock pot recipes. shout out to you for that
A little behind, but just used the Instapot for the first time. Thank you for your help❣️
It will be my very first time using my instant pot in the next couple of days. This video has helped me understand the natural release and quick release methods. I am scared to use it lol but feel better after this video. Thank you.
thank you for this video! I was terrified of 10 minute natural release! I thought I'd still have to release the steam after the natural release time was up!
Thanks this was fantastic. I just started today and I’m dyslexic and to have a video to watch really helps to reinforce what I’ve read!
Thank you so much for your time in showing us how EXACTLY this thing supposed to work. I been looking explanations for slow, quick and natural release. Thank you so much!
Finally I understood this! Thank you!
Thank you! I need all the basic tutorials for my instant pot I got for Xmas 😂 I feel like most UA-cam videos and recipes assume you've used an instant pot before, and the manual was less than helpful 😂😂😂
What a superb explanation. Thanks.
Good information. I'm very glad I watched this! Thank you.
Thank you for the simple explanation, I have a new instant pot and read a recipe and wondered what is natural release, I read the manual again then I came to your post first and so happy! I have subscribed and liked your post!
this is the best explanation on all of youtube on this topic (i've been searching FOREVER) - Thank you so much!!!!
Great explanation. No one has been able to explain the differences to me. Much appreciated.
Hi i love your video thank you, my question when you are doing this release do i hit cancel button or leave on start? No one talks about that.
Thank u so much,your demo is so clear
This video answered the exact question I was hoping for. Thank you👍
my "fail" was assuming the timer was set to minutes and seconds like a microwave. Everytime I got to more than 4 "Minutes" it went back to zero. Because in Insta Pot, language I was actually telling it to cook for more than 4 hours. I was confident to try it once you explained the pressure release.
Thank you so much…… love from South Africa
Thank you that really helped me. Using mine for the first time tomorrow.
First time user, Thank you for this info! You explained a lot
I am a new user. Thank you for explaining the natural release. Your video was the best way to explain it.
Very helpful I just got mine today and we are doing quesadillas
This helped a LOT! I wish I would've found this before I got irritated last night lol. Thank you so much!
Omg thnakssss youuuuuu the only video that on the point
This was so helpful, thank you!!!
Very helpful! Thanks for this.
Thanks for this, I just got an instant pot for Christmas and this is super useful!
Thank you so much I was so confused!
Thank you!! Was scared to death of it - now I feel better.. Ham bone and 15 bean soup comihg up!
As a guy starting in with Instant Pot cooking I've wondered what to do with the "Keep Warm/Cancel" function key when doing a timed natural release.
Pressing the "Keep Warm/Cancel" key has two effects on the Instant Pot.
First, it secures the low level "Keep Warm" power going to the internal heater, and;
Second, it turns the front LED display to OFF and you loose use of the count-up "L" timer.
For a Quick Release OR Natural Release I always press the "Keep Warm/Cancel" key to turn the Instant Pot to OFF/Standby State. If I'm doing a timed pressure release, such as when doing hardboiled eggs, I don't turn the Instant Pot all the way OFF and lose the "L" timer because this display functions as a convenient timer.
Also, my idea about how to always use the "Keep Warm/Cancel" function key is to always set to OFF before opening the lid.
QUESTION: I've not seen any Instant Pot recipe that address what to do with the "Keep Warm/Cancel" function key during a TIMED pressure release. What is your guidence when the recipe is moot on this topic?
Thanks for the well done presentation and the well documented recipes.
This was so helpful thank you
Thank you! This helped ALOT!
Thank you so very much very helpful with showing us versus just telling us!!!!
Great explanation!!! Thank you
Ladies a life saver
Very helpful. Thank you.
This video was super helpful thank you for sharing that knowledge
Thank you so much for a great tutorial. Very simple to understand instructions for a brand new IP owner who is excited to get started 😊
Hi there, I appreciate this video. A couple of years before the instant pot I bought the Power Pressure Cooker XL. Anyway, there's really not a whole lot of information for mine. Is this really helped me figure out no problem I've been having with mine. They're not all that different actually. Have a great day ️ ❤️ be well
So I have a recipe that says cook on high pressure for 3 minutes then NR for 18-20 mins. What does that mean? I just let them sit there on warm while the pressure dissipates on its own?
Yes, wait after it ends cooking for the allotted additional NR time of 18-20 min
Thank you for a very good concise explanation.
I thought I knew all about the pressure release. THanks for your info and the info on 7 common IP mistakes
We just got ours pressure valve is different so I'm guessing they had some issues with that set up. Still learning this is a great start though, thank you.
Very helpful explanation for a newbie!
Thanks Karen! Great video, helped me with exactly what I needed with no fluff.
Very helpful thank you!
Thanks for the breakdown. I wish I would of looked this up prior to making the soup 🙃 we shall see how the meat comes out
About to use my Instant Pot for the first time. Wish me luck.
Still alive! 😉👉👉
Excellent!
Thank you!
omg. i just got an instapot and i'm absulutely terrified to use it. ive heard horror stories about them blowing up and that quick release looks pretty intimidating. how long after that vents do you wait to open the lid? anyone know? the instructions for this are horrible in fact i dont even see any so the video is appreciated. i'm absolutely terrified.
THANK YOU I get it now!
Thank you very helpful info🙏
Thank you, Karen. That was helpful, I'm just starting out.
Really helpful
Thank you for clarifying this!
