Can I use a smaller inner pot with it?

Dear Valued Customer,Thank you for contacting Rosewill. Unfortunately, no, RHRC-13001 should only work with the pot that comes it. Thank you for your understanding and patience.Sincerely,Rosewill Support Service Agent

I don't believe it would be advisable. You should the pot/crock that came with it. That said, you can prepare very small amounts, down to 1/2 cup of dry rice.

I do believe that you can, as I had a turkey fryer full of boiling water going on it - that's bigger than the usual canning pot. There is an adapter you can buy if your pot is not magnetic, but it's only about 6" wide.

Never actually did what you suggest but would bet it'd be OK because the weight would be evenly distributed. BUT, if the circumference overhangs the Tamer by much, the efficiency of the Tamer would be reduced, I think, and more heat would get to the pot at the edges, if you can visualize that. Sorry.So, it's kind of up to you. I've used the Tamer with big saucepans, etc,. and always have one at the stove. I don't think the Tamer will be hurt by what you suggest, but wonder if the stuff in the pot will burn at the edges??

I live alone and use it MORE that the larger size! Brown rice, plus steaming veggies and tubers all do well in the smaller pot.

Yes, but I would work my way up to larger pots. Start with a smaller pot and work your way up in size each year. This way you can water it prperly.

I think you want the diameter of the pots (both large and small). The lid is larger as it locks onto the flanges around the outside of the pots. That said, the INTERIOR diameter of the pot is 9 3/4 inches. For comparison, the steamer basket that comes with the set is 8 3/4 inches in diameter. That leaves a 1/2 inch gap around between the pot and the steamer. When it sits on the wire tripod, also included, the top of the steamer sits about an inch blow the rim of the pot. I would guess that those are the minimum space allowances designed by the manufacturer. When you mention plates, I hope you are talking about material which is suitable to be put under pressure. I wouldn't attempt to use even Pyrex in this thing without checking first. You can do a lot of damage with this tool if it's misused. Be careful.

The capacity of the pot is not the issue. Measure the opening. I have one pot with an enormous opening, and it will not work for that one. All the others fit.

You can, but you probably won't like the result. There's a reason why these come in different sizes. They rely on fixed amounts of water and grounds. I have a friend who has two - one this size and a smaller one - trying to make a smaller batch in a bigger pot - undrinkable, like dirty socks and burnt rubber. Best bet is make a full pot and dump out what you don't drink

Get a 6 qt you can less in a smaller unit but you cannot cook more in a smaller one

I use a 1 liter stainless pot and it fit fine with no issue. I'd say my pot is 6 -8 inches diameter at the bottom.

You probably could, but this model doesn't come with the extra turkey strainer that you can lower into the pot.

You would need an adapter to do this. It does sort of defeat the purpose of carrying a compact stove though. If you have space for a normal tank, why not use a larger cooking surface as well? If you are doing this for space / weight, just buy the compact canisters that are made for this device.

Yes. I recommend using a light weight dutch oven that will fit within the interior dimensions.

yes, you can. The quality of the pot is not as good as I expected. It is indeed thin.

You could potentially use the bottom pot for water bath canning but as the others have said, it's not really big enough for serious canning.

The pot that comes with it is too small, but I don't know why you could not use a larger pot to deep fry a turkey.

It nests inside the 5 qt perfectly. I doubt very much it will fit in a smaller pot. Check dimensions.
