Instant Pot Ultra Beginners Quick Start Guide and Manual
Step by step instructions on how to use your Instant Pot ULTRA for the first time and how to do a water test / initial test run. DETAILED BLOG POST WITH …
I’m doing the water test as we speak! Really great video! I’ve had the pot for a month and I was so nervous to use it! 😅😬
Hi Nina .. Lovely demo. Clear and concise .. Thank you.
By far the best quick start guide yet! Thank you!!
Hi. My question is steam coming out of my Ultra when I first start. I saw one reply that said to just push the lid down.; I saw another that said not to. Can you help
Very concise, extremely helpful, and a perfectly paced video… Thank you! :))))
Just got mine Ultra for half the price on Black Friday cant wait to give it a try. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for showing all the steps in a detailed way!
Great Instructions and looking at your recipes…they look great too…
She does a great job with her presentation. I especially liked the way she visually showed us how to switch back and forth between the modes, i.e., changing it from steam to a different selection, for my purpose, the meat setting. She showed us what pressing the knob, turning the knob accomplishes. She demonstrated how to get out of my meat setting selection mode to the minutes mode so the user can override the IP Ultra preset, in my case, from 45 mins to longer if desired. Thank you!
I was scared to use the instant pot after reading the instructions but I just finished the water test and that went well. I am a much better visual learner in this type of instance!
Thank you. This video was very informative
Excellent instructions thank you aam
I just bought an ultra instant pot, and I saw your video! Thank you very much for showing us how to use it. I followed your directions and made chicken wings in it. They were delicious! 😋
Thank you for this video! You were so thorough and straight to the point. It was extremely helpful. I really appreciate it!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I will be including this URL when I give this as a gift to my niece.
Thank you! The instructions that came with this, were basically non-existent! Thanks for the help!
You didn’t mention Ultra at all
Cool
Years ago, I blew up my pressure cooker. It just missed my toddler. I think that’s is why I also just stare at my instant pot ultra. Thank you for getting me motivated by making it simple. 😁
does the slow cooker function work like regular slow cookers how do you use the slow cooker function
Hola compré dos olla pero nose usarla quiero que me expliquen en español soy Dominicana gracia
Thank you so much for making this video it is a great video for new users.
I've used my IP for a few years and decided to upgrade to the Ultra. Whoa! The dial really threw me off! Thanks for a clear explanation on how to use the dial feature. I love my IP!
great video, it cleared up my time choosing problem. Thank you.
Great video for people who barely have time to cook and need a quick tutorial.
Very rarely I post a comment! Nice and crisp. Definitely made it easier to quick start !
Amazing. Thank you. I just used mine tonight and your video helped me!!!
Thank you! You made getting started very easy.
Thanks a lot! Very helpful 🙂 you finally made it possible for me to start using it!
Thank you for this video!! Helps SO much!
Quiero aprender a utilizar esta olla de presión pero me gustaría que fuese en español, alguien me podrá ayudar gracias
I have to hold down the quick release button in order for it to quick release. Is this normal?
I just got an instant pot ultra, and I had no idea what to do with the quick release button. I wasnt sure if I should of pressed down on it when cooking or after. Now I know its after lol
O.K. For that model,….but some others are different…mine has no condensation collector,….no anti=block shield,…what ever that does…???….No off/on button,….no dial, for times etc,…I think the more added extras,…just helps to confuse people even more…
This video is sooooooo helpful and clear! Thank you so much for the water testing demo info. Now I'm going to start using the first instant pot in my life 🙂
The manufacturer should purchase the rights to put this video on DVD and include it with every purchase of an Instant Pot Ultra. Very professionally done and explains the use of the control panel settings very clearly and logically. I am a new user of the Instant Pot Ultra 80 and, so far, I have washed it, done the water test, and cooked a couple of batches of hard-boiled eggs. Everything is going well with your help. Thank you very much.
That's 25 minute preset time not 325. Sorry about the type o.
Just took this machine out of the box, washed it, filled it with my beef roast veggies and liquid. My recipe calls for a 50 minute cook time. However I cannot change the 325 minute preset time on the pressure cook programming. Can I change the minutes at all? I have tried to use the dial but the minutes don't change for me. Is this normal?
I love it, very well organized. I tried different "quick start" guide. This is just perfect!
Great video. I was wondering how to remove the anti-block shield. The manual is not at all clear about this so this video really helped.
I actually told my husband NOT to buy me a Instant pot, since I'm so terrified of pressure cookers(long story, growing up, with my mom blowing up her pressure cooker multiple times)fast forward to mid January and I finally took it out of the box after I looked at your video. I'm still in the next room fearfully watching from afar, as steam is being released at the 1 min cook time(followed your video to a tee). I'm still terrified of this, but watching your video did make it a little, and I do mean LITTLE less terrifying. It just finished, and is on warm mode. I'm trying to decide whether I'm going to let it release steam on it's own or if I try…we'll see.
a must watcher video on how to operate InstantPot. Thanks for sharing.
instructions state 2 cup minimal for Ultra
Thanks for this helpful video! What happens if you don't press the quick release button?
I’m am so happy I found your page ! Terrified to use my ínstant pot until I saw how easy your video was very easy step by step ! Thank you again
Just started watching this – great to see how to wash the little lid parts. Thank you!
Just want to congratulate you on an excellent video, WAY better than the manual! Did the water test and everything worked fine so far…..
My steam release button doesn’t stay put. I have to keep my finger on it to release steam. Is that normal? Or am I doing something wrong?
Great guide! Thank you very much for this
