  • QuestionWhat PSI does this pot cook at? Can I can food in it or sterilize bottles?

    Asked by Sue.

    • Answer Thanks for reaching out, Sue! Our Instant Pot Pro does have a sterilize function. With regards to Pressure Canning, the Instant Pot Max and Pro Plus models are safe to use as a tool for pressure canning. Test data confirms that the Max and Pro Plus models operate at required temperature ranges that can perform canning of the entire spectrum of foods as per USDA home canning guidelines. It is important that recipes are closely followed when canning. Modifying cooking times, procedures, ingredients, or temperatures can be dangerous. Please follow the USDA published guidelines & recipes for home canning. The “Low Pressure” setting on the Instant Pot Max and Pro Plus can sustain a temperature range of 230-231°F / 110 - 111°C for canning of high-acid foods. The “Max Pressure” setting on the Instant Pot Max and Pro Plus can sustain a temperature range of 242-247°F / 116 - 119°C for canning of low-acid foods. USDA canning instructions for high-acid foods are based on a 212°F / 100°C setting, and low-acid foods are based on a 240°F / 115°C setting. The Instant Pot Max and Pro Plus canning settings operate at higher temperatures for extra safety. Certain foods may appear overcooked. The canning guidelines are based on the condition of up to 4,921ft / 1500 m altitude. At higher altitudes, the steam release may be activated to control the internal pressure to a safe level. The real-time display of the internal temperature will indicate to the user whether the desired safe canning temperature can be sustained. Users should observe this important guideline (or restriction) to ensure food safety in the home canning experience.
