yes so far. I am primarily using the recipes and timing from the book Pressure Cooking Perfection by American Test Kitchen. I use my own timer and not the timer that comes with the unit (because I know my timer is accurate and I haven't calibrated the battery operated timer wit the unit).

No. And I find it very limiting. You can ONLY use it with the very limited number of enclosed Ball approved recipes. I gave mine away.

Yes you can and Ziplock has a recipe page http://www.ziploc.com/Recipes/Pages/default.aspx that you can go to for ideas on how to cook with mixed ingredients.

I don't remember because I had my own recipes to use. You can find recipes very easily online.

No. Just cook as many as you want. In fact, I cooked three yesterday and all went well.

Hello, I haven't used MasterCook 9.0, but have used and use much earlier versions of MC--4.0 and 5.0--for precisely your pupose. My sister and I started out using and choosing from thier formats, but our book got so large, we are now using it in combination with Publisher so we can add additional features separate from the recipes. I'm not able to comment on the other product you mention. We started our project a little over 10 years ago. MC was the best one we found at the time. For health reasons and others, it has taken us a good while to complete our project, but we've found MC 4.0 and 5.0, even as old as they are, still great resources. Easy to use, quite a few recipe layout options, 5.0 has more complete nutrition information, places to write notes/family anecdotes at the start or finish of your recipe, flexibility with the ingredient list, in case you are using something not included there or are using another recipe as an ingredient. I imagine 9.0 is even better, more updated, though like I say, I can't speak to it directly. Hopefully someone else can help you with that. Good luck with your project. CV

Yes. I just did it. You go to the recipe list. Right click on the recipe and a drop-down menu will appear. You can then click on "copy recipe to another chapter". I have a chapter labeled Biscotti. I copied one of the recipes to the chapter labeled Cookies. It now appears in both chapters. It is so easy. If you want, on the drop-down menu is also the option to "move" a recipe to another chapter. You will love this software. It is so user-friendly. Hope this helps.

You can. In fact that was one of my wife's favorite parts about the gift, taking 100's of index cards, magazine scraps, etc. and inputting the recipes into the Key Ingredient site. (First you enter them into your personalized page on KeyIngredient.com, then it automatically syncs the recipes to the Key Ingredient reader in the kitchen). It's very easy and organized. We love it!

Yes, you can enter your own recipes, and get nutritional analysis, as long as MC8 has the nutritional information on the ingredients you enter. IF you enter something that ISN'T in the info banks, it will say so, and give you the option to provide that information, IF you have it.

Yes. Two simple ways are to:1. Press the "Add 30 Sec" button. Each press adds 30 seconds. 2. Press the "Cooking Menu" button and then select "Cook by Time". You can then rotate the knob to select the amount of time.

No. It comes with basic instructions on cooking with it and cleaning it but it does not include recipes.

No, you can't. You can only select one of the four functions (rotisserie, bake, convection, broil) at a time.
