Pressure Cooker Duromatic Hotel 8L/28cm Food Steamer with Side Grips. Multi Cooker Hotpot, Auto Lock Lid. Stainless Steel Pot. Instant Cook Pot – 10 Year Kuhn Rikon Cookware Guarantee

I used to have a Prestige Hi-dome - which was fine actually although yes it did hiss a bit - but when the link was suggested between aluminium and altzheimers, I stopped using it. I have often thought about getting a replacement but just never got round to it. However, I make stock often, and soups, and casseroles and so, because of the terribly high price of fuel, decided to get one. I hummed and hawed before buying this particular model; it was the one I wanted but was so expensive. I very luckily managed to get a bargain through Amazon Warehouse and got an 8 litre Hotel model for £135.00 If I had known how much pressure cookers have improved since my Prestige went, I would have just paid full price - £170.00 ish and got one months ago. I have used it every day since. It is a bit big, but you can cook tiny amounts in a big pressure cooker but you can't cook large amounts in a small one. It hasn't actually been put away in my pan drawers yet, it sits on the stove top, looking magnificent and shiney. I have made stocks in 30 minutes, casseroles, meatballs in sauce, soup, pot roast, soaked beans cook min 10 minutes - yes that is 10 minutes!!! I haven't done any puddings but that is because my husband is supposed to be on a diet - my eldest son is visiting next week and I will make some then. It is practically silent although it can hiss a bit whilst you are getting used to how low to turn the gas down - (as low as it will go is about right) and very little smell escapes so you don't need to run the extractor once the lid is locked on. It is really quick and easy to wash up. It's just fabulous - I am so pleased with it. The build quality is excellent - I am sure that the other ranges of cooker that Kuhn Rikon make are just as good. Nothing has stuck on the bottom, unlike my Prestige - food was always getting stuck/burnt on if I wasn't really careful - this particular range of cooker has a very thick base. You can easily make a one-pot meal in one of these - they are head and shoulders above slow cookers, which I have never liked much. The one teensy gripe is that, even though it is so expensive, it comes with a trivet but not a steam basket - it doesn't really matter as you can put other dishes in if you want to (pyrex) but I will buy a steam basket as well at some point. Buy one and use it. You won't regret it and it will save you money in the long run - and it looks fab.

This is my 3rd pressure cooker, prev 2 were Presto. At 8 litres/28cms it is 1/3 larger than my prev models. It is absolutely brilliant. Comes up to pressure rapidly. Leave it to point it HISSES. This is actually to just beyond a proxy 3rd pressure ring (cooker has 2 pressure ring indicators). So 17psi / 1.2bar. Turn gas to low. Pressure cooker goes silent but holds this higher pressure. Fantastic! This is the "hotel" version so no gizmos, just plain vanilla. Consider the wider 28cms model if using for jam say (wider better than higher, more surface area = less spills). That said it is wide pot. Others mention a narrower (higher) pot less easy to use. Pleased I took their advice. It Swiss, expensive, v well made. Note the silicon sealing ring (twice price my prev models) is v robust. I can't see it needing to be replaced any time soon. So maintenance should be low and running costs v low compared with my prev much more "pressure leaky models." Marmalade. 10 mins for quartered segments. Beetroot. 10/15 mins small/medium. As seal is so good it will need minimal water. If your budget allows, highly recommend. One thing, I searched for this via Google. On clicking on the offered Amazon choice I was surprised to be offered £20 (10%) off as referral.

Great pan! Easy to use great cooking and easy to clean 👌🏻 I totally recommend it 😉

This a a good lump of stainless steel with quality finish and components. The only comments I would make is the instructions for fitting the seal to the lid may as well be written in Mandarin and the diagram is as clear as Ikeas efforts, Secondly in use watch when you open the lid as the steam will burn your fingers because the handles are so short. Better to buy the pot version with the long handle! Thirdly, the pressure indicator is a spring loads stem with two red bands on it. Due to the shiny reflective surface it can look like two red bands are showing when it's actually only one and it's reflection! This will result in an undercooked dish so beware of that. Pul the stem up and have a good look at the bands so you know what to look for when cooking.

Very well made. Has been used a lot already. My hubby insisted we get this large size to pot roast meat and chickens even though we are just two most of the time. Did not like the chicken but a brisket roast was so tender and juicy. Will come into its own in the winter months for casseroles and one pot dishes such as chili or curry. This is my first pressure cooker even though I am in my sixties. We got this as I cook every day and we wanted to cut down on our energy bills. The first time I had trouble regulating the heat and maintaining the pressure level as I used the regular size hob on my gas cooker. I was afraid of using a higher flame on the larger gas ring with not being used to it. But because of the large diameter of the pressure cooker I found it works perfectly on the large gas ring (but not the large double ring for wok cooking). Once it reaches the correct pressure I simply turn it down to the lowest setting and barely have to watch it as it maintains the pressure evenly. I do wish we had plumped for a slightly smaller size as I wanted to cook rice in it too, but this is too big for a two person serving. Will be great though when the extended family are here. Perhaps at some point we might get a smaller one too. So no regrets.

Ich suchte eine funktionierende Einkoch-Lösung- hier war sie (12L Topf). Mitterlweile habe ich 5 Töpfe der Firma und kann die Kritikpunkte nachvollziehen. Mal sehen ob ich aufklären kann: Früher waren die "Gummis" aus Kautschuk, das hatte Vor und Nachteile. Jetzt sind sie aus Silikon. Hat auch Vor- und Nachteile. Meine Erfahrug ist, daß bei den Schnellbratpfannen das ganze irgendwie schlechter funktioniert (seitlicher Dampaustritt, Herauswölben des Gummis), als bei den Töpfen. Ich kann das sagen, weil ich mit dem SELBEM Deckel auf verschiedenen Töpfen/Pfannen gewerkelt habe. Wo der Deckel beim 12L Topf z.b. absolut sicher dicht ist, spratzelt der gleiche Deckel beim Benutzen der 5L Schnellbratpfanne... Dito bei der 2,5L Schnellbratpfanne... Reklamation wurde gut abewickelt: Zusendung neuer Dichtungen brachte Verbesserung, gleichwohl: die Töpfe scheinen 100% zu funktionieren, die Pfannen gehen auf kurze Zeit, aber längere Kochjobs- da ist mir der Dampfverlust zu hoch, das Aroma entweicht, es ist dann wie mit einem "normalen" Schnellkochtopf. Aber: die Töpfe (ich besitze 12L, 6L und 3L) funktionierne 1a und es ist einfach der hammer: Durch die Dampfdichtigkeit (oder den geringen Dampfaustritt) braucht man wenig Wasser (100ml oder ein leicht bedeckter Boden reichen), die Aromen bleiben alle im Topf und die Bude riecht nicht nach Essen (!!!!!) Energieverbrauch absolut minimum dadurch! Alle Töpfe werden nach Erreichung des Dampfdruckes von meiner kleinen Espressoflamme des Herdes auf Druck gehalten! Energiesparender geht es nicht. Handling usw. ist auch super. Kurzum: absolute Empfehlung meinerseits, mir ist nach einem halben Jahr noch kein einziges Glas (beim Einkochen) aufgegangen oder verdorben. Gerichte wie Ochsenbäckchen, Ossobucco, Safranrisotto (Aroma bleibt im Essen!!) sind wirklich absolut lecker und Brühen sind dadurch überhaupt sinnvoll kochbar (3h, statt 12...) Nachteile: man muss dabeistehen, um reagieren zu können, wenn der Druck steigt oder fällt (nachregeln der Energiezufuhr), aber dafür funktioniert es wirklich gut und die Technik als solche wirkt vertrauenserweckend. Kein Vergleich zu den sonst üblichen Plastegriffmonstern, die die ganze Energie und das Aroma per Dampf in die Küche blasen. Hier bleibt alles im Topf. Die oben etwas gescholtenen Schnellbratpfannen überzeugen auch übrigens als reine Bratpfanne: unglaublich dicker Boden, der Techniken wie Ablöschen, oder Anbraten wirklich zu einer Freude macht! Kurzum: Gutes Kochgeschirr, was teuer ist, aber echten Mehrwert darstellt. Die Preise schwanken stark, es lohnt sich hier etwas auf die Suche zu gehen.

metali fissler den daha kaliteli ama plastik kısımları karacadan kötü, zaten üst kisimdaki plastik kirik diye iade ettim. bu fiyatlar cikanlar için söylüyorum; maceraya gerek yok fissler alın.

Produit pro sauf que le dessus est très fragile

Ich hab diese 28cm durchmessende 10liter-Druckkoch-Monstrosität bestellt um druckzukochen und insbesondere auch einzukochen. Top Teil! Erster Tag da, schon drei Durchgänge! Aus Spaß an der Freud!!! Was im Lieferumfang vergessen wird, ist eine Platte für das Einkochen. War begeistert, dass die auch dabei ist. Es finden 4 (Sturz-)Gläser von Weck mit 3/4 Liter (müssten also auch 4 halb-liter + 4 Viertel-liter passen) locker nebeneinander in dem 28cm Topf Platz, ohne sich zu berühren! Das war meine Hoffnung und der Grund für die Bestellung in erster Instanz! Ich freue mich also, dass ich von den 22-26cm Modellen Abstand genommen habe. Was wärmeaufnahme und drückaufbau anbelangt, funktioniert das Teil rapide! Induktion aus Maximum und boost und es geht in 5 min ab mim Ventil! Zudem hb ich keine 28er Platte und trotzdem funzt es grandios! Mit dem entsprechenden Boden wirbt die Firma auch - zurecht! Ich bin derzeit rundum zufrieden mit dem Topf! Behalte mir natürlich vor, Einschränkungen und Erweiterungen in der Zukunft einzupflegen.

Pentola a pressione molto bella, costa ma ne vale la pena
