That certainly seems reasonable. I don't own, and never have used, a pressure cooker, and don't necessarily have space for an additional item of that size... so I'm unlikely to ever explore using one. Tangentially I do want to add that using a heavy pot does seem to improve bean cooking results -- it least to more even cooking. Steve |
