I have an InstantPot. I really like it, and use it regularly. However, it is important to note that those cooking times are for the actual time it cooking and doesn't include time to get up to pressure and to cool off (many foods work best using a "natural release" which takes about 10 minutes).

Weird, I was just wondering about electric pressure cookers about an hour ago. Have any of you made dry beans in one of these? If so, how did they come out? What was the cooking time?

I have an electric pressure cooker from HSN and love it. It also has a slow cooker function which I use for dry bean chili etc. If you google electric pressure cooker recipes there are a few sites that have good ones with time, amount of water/liquid info which is important. When we lived on the coast we would only use our old fashioned pressure cookers to can outside on a propane stove. I was too chicken to use it in the house. :-o

IDK why that happens, but it happened to me not that long ago when I linked a vacuum from amazon on pricescope. Can't tell if it's an amazon thing, walmart thing, or a pricescope thing...

That looks like the one my daughter gave us for Christmas.

We love it!

We modify slow cooker recipes for the pressure cooker when we don't have time to do it with the slow cooker. We actually like some things better in the slow cooker, but having a great beef stew in an hour is incredible.

Okay, so I'm not going crazy. That is so weird.
