  • If there's anything I love, it's shiny new things. With this stated, it should come as no surprise that my jaw hit the floor when I saw the beautiful new Instant Pot Ultra after its recent release. And seeing how much I LOVE my IP-DUO60 (so much that I was in the market for another to cook two different things at once), I knew I had to have one
    After playing with it, I decided to give a side-by-side Ultra vs. Duo comparison for any other folks out there who may be interested in making the purchase. The end result? Watch the video to find out!
    If you want to see a video of the Instant Pot Duo Plus compared to the Instant Pot Duo, check this link out here!: • Instant Pot Duo Plus v...

    *I love the instant pot so much! I have made quinoa, chicken, chili, asparagus **MyBest.Kitchen** and yogurt in it so far. The only thing that didn't work great was the asparagus. I cooked it for 1 minute and it was still overdone. It is a timesaver and uses much less energy than my gas stove.*

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your explanation is clear and helpful. I had watched hours of videos, read all available instructions, and nearly given up on figuring out how to program my new ultra (also my first pressure cooker of any kind ) I now understand the basics and do look forward to using it!! I wish that all the literature and the Instant Pot website just had a link to you. I'm delighted that you have a website yourself. I will definitely recommend it to everyone!

      Well I did order the Ultra and it came today, I did the water test and I'm ready to start cooking tomorrow for the Labor Day weekend. I think I'll start by making steamed potatoes and hard boiled eggs for potato salad. Then I'm on to BBQ ribs and maybe lime cheesecake. I'm glad you explained the workings of this pot so well because I thought the manual was confusing. So thank you so much for this video.

    @mikenpat208 6 лет назад +2

    Thank you!!! I researched the IPs trying to decide which one to get and decided on the Ultra. The only information I had was a comparison chart, but at least it did show the comparison of all the functions in all the IPs. Your video is awesome and I am really glad I decided on the Ultra! And I did purchase it from Sur La Table! Free shipping and coupon!

    Even though made 2 years ago, still helpful. I recently got an Instant Pot, didn't realize it was an Ultra (got it 2nd hand) and the majority of videos online are done with the Duo. So "Pressure" is "Manual"

  • @AcornHillHomestead
    @AcornHillHomestead 4 года назад +3

    Thanks for this video. Im late to the IP party and I just made my very first Ultra IP of 1.5 year old dried black beans. I used the straight bean setting, 2 cups rinsed but not soaked beans with 6 cups water (since my beans were older this was suggested somewhere) 2 huge cloves garlic, 1 tsp pink salt and 1 Tbs oil. Kept it simple and used the keep warm about 10 mins. Absolute perfection first time using. Unbelievable quality of cooked beans, no hard uncooked spots. No more canned beans with all the additives for me. Im going to eat this whole pot of beans by myself with chopped avocado.! 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for sharing.

    @traceybradshaw6558 5 лет назад

    I have both the Instant Pot 6qt Duo Plus and the 8qt Instant Pot Ultra. I love both of them and have had absolutely no issues with either of them. The only difference between the two was the the trivets I received with them were exactly the opposite of what you received. The more open one came with my Duo Plus and the other with my Ultra. So to resolve the issue for my Duo I would lay a piece of foil on it,until for a few dollars I purchased the other one from Amazon. Thank you Jeff for you fabulous videos with wonderful tips and recipes.

    Bought one based on your reviews and some of the features. Currently the price for these are $84.99 at WalMart (rollback) maybe a dollar or so less on Amazon currently (11-26-2018)
    Starting the learning curve now, the recipes look wonderful with a lot less effort than the other alternatives!! Thanks again!

  • @cheryls2022
    @cheryls2022 7 лет назад +5

    I recently (yesterday) found out that you can cancel the warming function in the Duo by pressing the Manual button twice. Only thing with that is when the cooking is done, the pot doesn't count up, the screen reads "OFF". So if you're cooking something that requires a natural release of so many minutes, you would have to use a kitchen timer. I forgot I had disabled the warm feature (when I did it I was watching an instructional RUclips recipe video) and thought something was wrong with my pot. Doh.

    I ordered the Duo on amazon, a couple of years ago, and what the seller sent me was the old LUX instead. I was new to IP, so I only realized the mistake after 1 month and a half. I cried wolf, but it was too late. So I got the Lux for the price of Duo. Lux is not bad at all, still I needed the 2 pressure settings the Duo has. Now, I want to make an upgrade from my old lux to Ultra. I only try to get a better price, maybe on boxing day as I missed the cyber Monday, or how it was called.
    Thank you for showing us how it works. It really looks cool.

What and where is the darn manual button? Thank you for pointing out that for newer models it’s called the, “pressure cook” button. I really enjoyed your video. You are entertaining and explained the usage of both models very well. I give you two thumbs up!

    • @Agape70113
      @Agape70113 5 лет назад +1

      Hi Cartik Seshan, I ended up keeping the Ultra because the deal was better when I bought them, but my cousin bought the duo and they really are the same in terms of what they do.
      I haven't had any problems with the Ultra & like that the lid is a little easier to use.
      I would say this review really rings true, it comes down to preference of buttons verses dial.

    I have the ultra mini. So far, I’ve only used it to make rice and hard boil eggs. I know that sounds ridiculous, but I got it when a rice cooker sale, that i was taking advantage of, ran out of units while i was paying. I called amazon immediately and asked for help. The best they could do was offer an alternative. One of the choices was the ultra mini for $47. Far be it from me to turn down an offer like that. I just kept using my 6 quart. I’m downsizing and was able to sell the 6 quart and just use the mini. Now, i need to go over all of the videos and learn great things. I truly appreciate your help.

    Actually the main benefit of the valve on the Ultra is not that there is a separate vent button. It is that it is auto-reseting when you close the lid so you can't accidentally leave it on vent.
