## Description

Product Description The smart choice for healthy, favorful meals, fast and easy. Cooks 3 to 10 times faster than ordinary cooking methods - even faster than a microwave for many foods. Chicken, fish, meat and vegetables cook to perfection fast. Helps tenderize economical cuts of meat. Works on regular and smooth-top ranges. Cover lock indicator shows when there is pressure inside the cooker and prevents the cover from being removed until pressure is safely reduced. Includes a special rack for cooking several foods at once with no intermingling of flavors. Dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Liquid capacity: 6 quarts (5.7 liters). Works on gas desertcart.com Pressure cookers have experienced renewed popularity over the last several years because cooks have rediscovered what some cooks (particularly grandmas) have known for a long time--they're really fast. And it's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor. Presto's 6-quart stainless steel pressure cooker is a multi-purpose pot that can stand in as a conventional soup pot as well as perform the kitchen magic that pressure cookers are famous for. Chicken Cacciatore cooks in 8 minutes! This professional-quality stainless steel pressure cooker is a handy addition to any well-rounded set of kitchen tools. The heavy-duty lid locks down during cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. This pressure cooker is useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 65 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts--even desserts like 5-minute custards! Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork; or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture. Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this stainless steel pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The Presto 6-quart pressure cooker is fully immersible; in addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures 9 inches in diameter (17 inches including handles) and 8-1/2 inches tall (including lid). Presto guarantees this pressure cooker with an extended 12-year warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

Review: Good quality - Used it about ten times already and it works great. Excellent for making soups.
Review: It's GREAT! - I got this for the sole purpose of cooking those ginormous chickens from Costco (and most supermarkets). I can put a 6 lb. chicken in there with 1-1/2 C. water, and its done in 25 minutes! I have a smaller Presto pressure cooker that I got for a wedding gift 49 years ago, and it's still going strong! So, I trust the Presto name, and I'm very satisfied with this 6-qt. cooker.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Any hints on how to get beans to cook evenly? I soak beans overnight and follow the instruction, but some beans are overdone and others are undercook**
A: Respectfully, any time I've ever had problems over the decades with beans not cooking evenly it was invariably due to a batch of mixed old AND new beans. This happens more than you might think, and unfortunately a recent purchase of mine of small red beans in 25 lb. bulk are proving to be exactly that. Soaking an extra couple of hours seems to help a little (10 hours instead of 8) and then bringing to full heat and pressure a little more slowly, then pressure cooking one extra minute than you normally would. All those things together will help when old and new beans have been mixed together.

**Q: Can someone please confirm that this pressure cooker is induction stove compatible by seeing if a magnet will stick to the bottom?  Thanks.**
A: All of our current stainless steel pressure cookers are compatible with an induction top range.  If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Department via phone at 1-800-877-0441 or e-mail us at contact1@gopresto.com.  We are open M-F 8-4:15 CT.

**Q: Could canning be done in this if so how many jars and what size?**
A: There was a time when canning using pressure cookers was deemed a safe method of preserving.  However, since 2006 Presto has not provided information for canning in pressure cookers.  The information used to support canning in pressure cookers was based on research done in the late 1970's.  The current recommendation from the United States Department of Agriculture indicates that to pressure can you will need to use a vessel that is specially a pressure canner, which holds at minimum four quart-size jars.  Note that pressure canners are generally 12-quart size or larger.  If you have any questions, you are able to contact our Customer Service Department by phone at 1-800-877-0441 or e-mail at contact1@gopresto.com.  We are open M-F 8-4:15 CT.

**Q: is is made in usa>**
A: I am not 100% sure, but I think they are made in Wisconsin, USA.  Hope this helps.  Suz
