The built-in “Rice” and “Multi-grain Rice” function keys normally provide the optimal way of cooking rice and grains. The marks on the inner pot provide a general guideline on the total amount of grain + water. However, if you want to cook some specialty rice or grains, please use the following guideline.
The provided measuring cup (180ml) can be used to measure the required grain-water ratios. One cup of grain yields about one serving.
Please note that the cooking time is pressure keeping time on Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker operating at 10.2 – 11.6 psi or 70-80 kPa. Cooking times are approximate. Please use them as a guideline only.

There are a few things to aware of when cooking meat.
- Raw meat is perishable food, which should not be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours (or 1 hour if room temperature is above 32C/180F). When use delayed cooking, do not set delayed cooking more than 1 ~ 2 hours.
- Do not try to thicken the sauce before cooking. Corn starch, flour or arrow-root may deposit to the bottom of the inner pot and be burnt to block heat dissipation. This could cause the cooker overheating.
- You may want to brown the meat to seal the natural juice before starting pressure cooking.
Please note that the cooking time is pressure keeping time on Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker operating at 10.2 – 11.6 psi or 70-80 kPa. Cooking times are approximate. Please use them as a guideline only.

There are a few things to be aware of when cooking dried beans and legume.
- Dried beans double in volume and weight after soaking or cooking. To avoid overflow the inner pot, please do not fill the inner pot more than ½ marking.
- When cooking dried beans, use enough liquid to cover the beans.
- Although not strictly necessary, soaking the dried beans can speed up cooking significantly.
Beans and legume are less likely to be over-cooked. But if they are undercooked, the texture is typically unpleasant. So please consider the cooking time as the minimal time. Letting the cooker cool naturally is the best way to save on energy and achieve better cooking result.
Please note that the cooking time is pressure keeping time on Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker operating at 10.2 – 11.6 psi or 70-80 kPa. Cooking times are approximate. Please use them as a guideline only.
