No, follow the cook time in the recipe you're using until you get the hang of pressure cooking.

@@PressureCookingToday thanks!

High (10.2-11.6 psi) and Low (5.8-7.2 psi)

@@PressureCookingToday Thank you very much for your reply this has helped me enormously. Kind regards, Jo

No once the pressure cooker has reached pressure, you should see almost no steam being released. If you're seeing steam around the edges of the lid, that means your gasket is not in place properly.

Right after you turn on the Duo Nova, press and hold press the plus button [+] button until the display shows S On

Definitely! Here's some info on beans www.pressurecookingtoday.com/pressure-cooked-beans-most-beans-cook-in-less-than-10-minutes/

Hi Anna - how long it takes for it to come to pressure depends on the ingredients in the pot. If you have a full pot with cold ingredients, it can take a long time to come to pressure. What are you trying to make? Are you pressure cooking or slow cooking?

A 6 quart would work well for a family of 4.

Sorry, we rarely use slow cook so we focus on pressure cooking. Slow Cook low is similar to a Keep Warm Setting, Normal is similar to Low and High is similar to High. People have more success with the slow cook setting if they start out using the saute function to bring up the temperature quickly and then switch to slow cook.

1 cup of water is 8 ounces or 237 ml

@@PressureCookingToday Thank you!

While we love our Ninja (there's NOTHING like that thermometer!), this Nova is way lighter to lift! It's also a more basic model, so it's in more people's budgets. And, since it's more basic, it's often less intimidating to beginners. :)

@@PressureCookingToday that's wisdom. :-) Would you please tell me how many inches across it is on the inside bottom of the air fryer basket of the the OL701? Wanting to order paper liners for it before it arrives. Thanks.

You'll need an air fryer lid but the Nova is compatible with the Instant Pot air fryer lid.

@@PressureCookingToday okay, thank you

You can steam baked potatoes www.pressurecookingtoday.com/pressure-cooker-baked-potatoes/ but you can't make homemade pizza in a pressure cooker.

Yes - Keep Warm :)

The light on the Keep Warm setting lights up to let you know if will go to Keep Warm after pressure cooking. Having it On does not interfere with the pressure cooking function. The display will show On until it reaches pressure. How long it takes will depend on the ingredients you have in the pot. The more liquid and the colder the ingredients, the longer it will take to come to pressure. There is not a button on top that has to be positioned. This model automatically resets to the sealing position when you open and close the lid. If steam is coming out of the float valve, that is normal. If steam is coming out of the steam release valve, the perhaps it is not seated properly and needs to be pushed down onto the metal stem.
