Default Pressure cooking dried pinto beans

My Kuhn Rikon recipe book, which is bean variety specific, advises,
10-12 min @ 15psi, unsoaked, and with water level 2" above beans.

I originally bought my PC to quick cook beans, but have since
discovered I don't like how they turn out. Even without pre-soaking,
which I prefer, I don't like the results. PC beans seem to have
a slightly gummy texture which I dislike, but that's jes me. YMMV.
