Instant Pot models; is low pressure important? (942 views)

I do use the low pressure setting for meats dishes like pot roast, pulled pork, but lots of people do everything on high pressure. I find that meats shrink less on low pressure. I used low pressure all the time with my stovetop pressure cooker. I haven't cooked shrimp in my instant pot so I can't offer any advice there.

I have the original Duo model. I almost always use it in manual mode rather than using the preset buttons. I do make yogurt and use the yogurt button, but I have never looked to see if yogurt cooks at high or low pressure.

This guy has done a lot of testing of the various models and you might find some helpful model comparison info in his pressure cooker section to help you decide which model is right for you. www.dadcooksdinner.com/
