4.
Within 6 seconds, the “STEAM / FAST” indicator light will
stop flashing and turn on and the LED display timer will start to
countdown at 6 minutes decrement. The cooker enters “STEAM
/ FAST” cooking mode.
5.
After cooking completes, your food will be ready to serve and
the cooker will automatically enter to WARM mode up to 9.5
hours.
NOTE: You cannot change the cooking time once the cooker enters a
cooking mode unless CANCEL the cooking mode to start over.
Caution:
1.
To prevent overflow: do not fill the cooker more than ¾ full of
water and food.
2. Ensure all ingredients are fully cooked before serving. If food is
not cooked through, restart the cooking cycle to cook longer.
3. If the Stew or food becomes too dry, it may cause the cooker to
overheat and you will hear a warning “beep” as the cooker
switches to the Warm cycle. You can cancel the cooking cycle.
SLOW / BROTH COOKING
The SLOW setting heats gentler than FAST setting and is good for
making soup, stew, bone or chicken broth, beans or chili. The
recommended cooking time is from 1 hour up to 3 hours. Bone broth up
to 9 hours, depending on amount of food and liquid added.
A full pot load takes about 60 minutes to reach to a boil. There will
be some liquid evaporation (about ½ - 1 cup per hour) during the
first 2-3 hours of cooking. As the results of clay’s low thermal
conductivity that releases heat slowly and cooks your food evenly, it
takes time to drop down to the desired simmer temperature.
VitaClay cooks 4 to 6 times faster to quickly bring to a boil than
conventional slow cooker. Your food is ready in 30 minutes or in an
hour or two without any pressure!
