    Introduction with Video

    The Instant Pot Pro is one of the latest models that have been introduced. It’s an upgrade to my favorite model, the Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus, which was recently discontinued. I was sad to hear it was discontinued, but upon trying this new model, I got over it pretty quickly!

    The Instant Pot Pro has all the features that I love about the Duo Evo Plus and improves on them even further.

    What is an Instant Pot?

    The Instant Pot has become so popular in recent years that Instant Pot is being used by some as a generic name for pressure cookers of any brand.

    In reality, Instant Pot is the brand name of a multicooker that serves as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, yogurt maker, sauté/searing pan, steamer and warming pot all in one convenient appliance.

    Some people use the name Instapot, but the correct name is Instant Pot.

    The Instant Pot Company (Instant Brands) started out with one product – the Instant Pot – and now makes a wide range of kitchen appliances including air fryers, blenders, and toaster ovens.

    Although the Instant Pot pressure multicooker has many different functions, the most commonly used is the Pressure Cook function. Pressure cooking allows you to cook foods at a fraction of the time it would take on the stovetop.

    First Thing You Need to Do: Open the Box!

    Instant Pot Pro box

    I often hear from readers that they’re so intimidated by the Instant Pot that they’re scared to take it out of its box. If this is you, rest assured that there’s nothing to worry about. The Instant Pot has many layers of built-in safety features!

    Besides, if you don’t get it out of the box and try it out, in the event you have a defective unit you might miss the warranty period and be stuck with a bulky paperweight!

    In this guide, I’m going to (virtually) hold your hand and help you get going to the point where you’ll pressure cook something simple – water!


    Is the Instant Pot Pro Safe to Use?

    This is very different from your grandmother’s pressure cooker! If you’ve experienced stovetop pressure cooker mishaps in the past, you have nothing to worry about. The Instant Pot eliminates most of those pressure cooker issues.

    According to Instant Pot, in the past, most pressure cooker disasters could usually be attributed to user error. Instant Pot pressure multicookers are carefully designed to eliminate and avoid most of the potential problems. 

    There are many safety features help reduce common errors. These include pressure sensor technology, lid close detection, lid lock technology, overheat protection, and automatic temperature and pressure controls.


    Safety Precautions

    Although there are many built-in safety features as explained above, as a user you need to follow common-sense precautions:

    1. Don’t touch the hot surfaces, particularly the stainless steel parts. Use the handles to move the Instant Pot or the inner pot.
    2. Don’t place the Instant Pot on or close to an electric or gas burner.
    3. Don’t move the Instant Pot when it’s under pressure.
    4. Don’t fill over 2/3 full.
    5. When cooking foods that expand e.g. rice, beans, pasta don’t fill over 1/2 full.
    6. Ensure anti-block shield, float valve, and steam release pipe are clean and not clogged.
    7. Don’t open the lid until the float valve is down i.e. the Instant Pot is depressurized.
    8. Keep hands and face away from the steam release mechanism.
    9. Don’t obstruct the steam release assembly when pressure is being released.
    10. When quick-releasing frothy foods such as applesauce, oatmeal, pasta, etc. take extra care. It’s best to release pressure is short bursts for these types of foods.
    11. Don’t use another Instant Pot model’s lid on the Pro model.

    For more information about safety precautions, please read the Instant Pot Pro user manual.


    Instant Pot Pro vs Duo Evo Plus

    The Instant Pot Pro is an updated version of the Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus. Here are the main differences between the two models:

    1. The Instant Pot Pro allows you to save up to 5 favorite programs.
    2. The Instant Pot Pro allows you to set a reminder for 5-minute natural release or 10-minute natural release.
    3. Some people had issues with using the Saute feature on the Duo Evo Plus. When the temperature is set to the highest level, they get the C8 error code. This issue doesn’t seem to be happening with the Pro.

    Parts

    The Instant Pot Pro comes with the following main parts:

    • Base unit/Outer Pot – stainless steel exterior that houses the heating element, control panel, and attached power cord

    The steam release assembly consists of:

    • Steam release cover – diffuses the steam when pressure is released
    • Steam release valve – regulates the internal temperature. It is supposed to be wobbly, but should be pushed in all the way
    • Steam release pipe – steam travels from the inner pot through the pipe during steam release

    Instant Pot Pro Lid Interior Parts

    Instant Pot Pro lid interior parts - silicone cap for float valve, lid locking pin, anti block shield, sealing ring rack, sealing ring - Paint the Kitchen Red

    The inside of the Instant Pot Pro lid consists of the following parts:

    • Silicone Cap for Float Valve – covers the float valve and keeps it in place
    • Lid Locking Pin – safety mechanism that prevents the lid from opening under pressure
    • Anti-Block Shield – prevents food from coming out of the inner pot through the steam release pipe
    • Sealing Ring Rack – holds the sealing ring in place
    • Sealing Ring – silicone sealing ring that allows the Instant Pot to seal

    Sealing Ring

    How to Remove the Sealing Ring

    Instant Pot Pro collage - sealing ring in place, pull on to remove, removed completely - Paint the Kitchen Red
    • Pull gently on the silicone ring until it detaches from the sealing ring rack.
    • Continue to pull the silicone sealing ring out until it is completely separated.

    How to Replace the Sealing Ring

    Instant Pot Pro collage - sealing ring is out, sealing ring put onto rack, pushed in - Paint the Kitchen Red
    • Place the silicone sealing ring on the sealing ring rack.
    • Working your way all around, push the sealing ring until it’s firmly seated in the sealing ring rack.
    • Make sure no part of the sealing ring is sticking out, or you may have sealing issues and get the Burn Message.
    • The first few times, you may find it difficult to remove the sealing ring but after a few uses, it should stretch out a bit.

    Float Valve

    The float valve needs be cleaned periodically, especially after cooking frothy or starchy foods.

    How to Remove the Float Valve

    Instant Pot Pro collage - remove silicone cover, remove float valve- Paint the Kitchen Red
    • While holding the float valve in place on the outside of the lid, remove the float valve’s silicone cap.
    • Allow the float valve to fall out from the bottom.
    • Be careful not to misplace the silicone cap.

    How to Replace the Float Valve

    Instant Pot Pro collage - replace silicone cover, push in, float valve in place - Paint the Kitchen Red
    • Thread the float valve through the float valve hole.
    • While holding it in place on the exterior of the lid, replace the silicone cover by pushing it onto the float valve on the interior of the lid.

    Anti-Block Shield

    The anti-block shield should be cleaned periodically, especially after cooking frothy or starchy foods.

    How to Remove and Replace the Anti-block Shield

    Instant Pot Pro collage - silicone trivet to remove anti block shield, removed, replaced - Paint the Kitchen Red
    • The anti-block shield can be hard to remove with your bare hands.
    • Use a silicone trivet or a dish towel to push the anti-block shield in an upwards motion.
    • Try it from the front or from behind (as shown above in the first image)
    • To replace the anti-block shield, push it in until it clicks into place.

    Instant Pot Pro Assembly

    Instant Pot Pro collage - base unit, inner pot, inner placed in base unit - Paint the Kitchen Red
    • Place the inner pot in the Instant Pot base unit with the handles resting in the handle notches.

    Condensation Collector

    Instant Pot Pro collage - push condensation collector into notches on back of base unit until pushed in all the way - Paint the Kitchen Red

    The condensation collector catches any moisture that builds up on the rim. This usually comes from moisture dripping from inside the lid into the rim of the Instant Pot base, when the lid is propped open. Here’s how to attach the condensation collector:

    • Line up the condensation collector with the edges aligned with the notches on the back of the Instant Pot base unit.
    • Slide in the condensation collector until it’s pushed in all the way.

    Open and Close the Lid

    How to Close the Lid

    Instant Pot Pro collage - lid in open position, lid in closed position
    • Place the lid onto the Instant Pot base unit with the arrow mark on the lid lined up with the small bar that is above the right corner of the control panel.
    • You will hear a chime (if the volume is turned on).
    • Turn the lid clockwise until you hear another chime.
    • The lid will be closed.

    How to Open the Lid

    Instant Pot Pro collage - lid in closed position, lid in open position
    • Turn the lid counterclockwise until you hear a chime.
    • The arrow on the lid will be lined up with the bar on the base unit.
    • Lift the lid to remove it.
    • If you feel a slight resistance, wiggle the lid back and forth and the suction should release.

    How to Prop Open the Lid

    Propping open the lid keeps it out of the way and allows you to use the Instant Pot hands-free.

    Instant Pot Pro collage - lid fin slot, lid fin, lid propped open - Paint the Kitchen Red
    • Locate the lid fin slots in the rim of the base unit.
    • Insert the left lid fin into the left slot or the right lid fin into the right slot.

    Release Pressure

    There are a few different ways to release pressure from the Instant Pot Pro:

    1. Natural Pressure Release/Natural Release
    2. Quick Release
    3. 10-minute or 15-minute Natural Pressure Release
    4. Quick Release in Short Bursts

    [Find out more about the pressure release methods.]

    How to do a Faster Natural Pressure Release with QuickCool

    There is one additional pressure release method available with the Instant Pot Pro.

    Instant Pot Pro remove quickcool cover collage - push latch, lift latch, remove cover - Paint the Kitchen Red

    Back in the days of stovetop pressure cookers, you were able to cool the pressure cooker down faster by running cold water over the closed lid. This allowed the pressure to drop faster. This isn’t possible with an electric pressure cooker.

    To speed up the cooling process, remove the QuickCool cover on the Instant Pot Pro and place the quick cool tray accessory filled with ice on the metal surface. This allows the pressure to be naturally released faster (up to 50% faster).

    Here’s how you remove the cover and add the ice.

    • Push the tab inwards and pull up.
    • Lift the cover upward and towards you to remove it.
    • Add ice to the QuickCool tray and place the tray on the metal part of the lid.
    • The float valve will drop and you will be able to open the lid.

    USES: tender-crisp vegetables, delicate fish

    Instant Pot Pro Initial Test Run / Water Test

    What is the Water Test?

    A water test is done by pressure cooking water for a few minutes. According to the Instant Pot manual you need to use 3 cups of water but I’ve found that using 2 cups of water is adequate. The advantage of using 2 cups is that it takes less time for the Instant Pot to come to pressure.

    Why You Should do the Water Test

    The initial test run or water test serves two purposes: it familiarizes you with using your new Instant Pot Pro and it allows you to establish that your Instant Pot is working properly. If you have a defective unit, the water test will identify that and you can get a replacement unit.

    You should do a water test before the first use but you can also do it when you’re having problems with the Instant Pot pressurizing. Doing the water test will pinpoint whether there’s something about the recipe that’s causing your sealing issues.

    How to do the Initial Test Run / Water Test

    This section tells you how to use the Instant Pot Pro for the first time, right out of the box. You will do a water test i.e. pressure cook water.

    Instant Pot Pro Water Test Instructions collage - push in sealing ring, inner pot in place, plug in - Paint the Kitchen Red
    • Make sure the sealing ring is properly seated.
    • Place the inner pot into the base unit.

    • Press Start to begin pressure cooking.
    • The display will change to On.
    instant pot water test instructions collage - float valve down, time goes to 0005, float valve up
    • You’ll hear and see small amounts of steam coming from the top of the lid. This is normal and safe! Just keep your hands and face away from the steam.
    • Once pressure has built up, the float valve will come up.
    • After the float valve comes up, the display will change from On to 00 05. This can take a few minutes.
    instant pot water test instructions collage - display goes to 0000, press cancel, release pressure with switch
    • The display will count down from 00 05 to 00 00.

    • Press Cancel.
    • Do a quick release: move the steam release switch from Seal to Vent.
    • Steam will gush out of the steam release cover. Keep your hands and face away from the steam.

    • This can take a few minutes.
    Instant Pot Pro Water Test Instructions collage - turn lid, open lid, prop open lid- Paint the Kitchen Red
    • Open the lid and prop the lid open.
    • That’s it! You’ve completed the water test.

    Pros and Cons of the Pro

    As I’ve mentioned before, I really love this model of the Instant Pot and it’s now my favorite model. But there are a couple of things that I don’t like.

    Pros

    • Pressure release is diffused
    • Pressure release switch is easy to use and self sealing
    • Bake function allows for dry baking
    • Sous vide function
    • Convenient access to functions through buttons and less reliance on the knob.
    • Inner pot has handles

    Cons

    • Handles don’t allow the inner pot to be rotated while sauteing.
      (Some find the rotating inner pot annoying, but I love being able to rotate the inner pot in place while sauteing.)
    • The minimum cook time is 00:01 instead of 00:00 as in some models.
      (Sometimes I like to pressure cook for 00:00 minutes e.g. for quick-cooking vegetables.)
      [UPDATE: I’ve had questions from readers about a workaround for this. Here’s what I do: I program the Instant Pot to pressure cook for 1 minute, and the moment it switches from On to 00:01, I press cancel and release pressure.]

    First Recipes to Try

    You should be all set to try out your first recipe! Here are some of my favorite easy recipes:

    • Instant Pot Chipotle Shrimp Soup
    • Instant Pot Thai Red Curry
    • Instant Pot Chicken Tikka Masala
    • Instant Pot Cream of Chicken Soup
    • Instant Pot Vegetarian Moroccan Stew
    • Instant Pot Chicken Curry Soup

      Thank you for this post. Very helpful!
      Have you tried the steam function on the pro? I understand it is without pressure on this model and wonder how this impacts the time.

        Barbara, I just tried it and it does seal, come to pressure. If you wanted it to not pressurize you’d have to leave the sealing switch in the Vent position. So bottom line, the steam appears to work as with other models.

        Sasha, you need the steam release valve, not necessarily the cover, which is just a diffuser – handy and useful but not necessary. I’ve heard that the company will sometimes send out a replacement if you’re persistent. The other place to look is on ebay. Good luck!

      Hello. I tried to make yogurt for the first time in the pro, but I couldn’t find a way to get to ‘medium’ temp like all the videos call for. I goes from low to boil am I missing something?

        Shawn, on the Pro you can use the Low option for fermenting. I think they may have got rid of the old low which was super low. You can also use Custom and set the temperature to 110 degrees. Hope that helps.

      Hi,
      Thank you very much for this most clear and helpful guide! I was planning to buy Duo Evo Plus, but if in this model the error message problem doesn’t occur, it seems to be a real improvement on the Evo..

      I just can’t find any information on the Bake function. Nowhere! Not even on Instant Pot website.. Would you happen to have any recipes that use it?

      Thank you again!!

        You’re welcome, Julia! I haven’t posted a recipe for it because in my experience the cake took 2 to 2.5 hours (7 inch round at highest temperature – 347F I believe?) to bake. I didn’t change the proportions of the oven recipe, just halved it. You could give it a try and maybe you’ll have a different experience.
