does this electric pressure cooker conform to 15PSI?

Lol. I have no idea. I know that I cooked dry black beans in 31 minutes. They were actually a bit over cooked.

there is no psi measurement device on the cooker. just high and low indicator

I read some reviews on cooking.com that said it only reaches 10 psi on high. I assume it's the same for both models.

The Fagor has two preset pressure settings: 1) 8psi 2) 15psi. I use mine to do everything from canning to cooking chili, beans, and even cooking freshly caught Dungeness crab.

PH, I assume that you are at an elevation wher 15 pounds is needed so to answer your question, it is yes. That is why experts advise having their pressure gauge tested every year or so. Using the weight, there is no need to be concerned if the gauge is off a bit. Although 1 psi would not be critical, the rules have always been strictly black and white with no gray area between.

Sorry Betty. I'm no help, my experience is with an electric stove top; however, in either the Rikon owner's manual or one of the pressure cooker cook books this subject I is covered.

Sorry, I don't know. The gasket didn't work. I followed the instructions and tried it several times but, it was not right, so eventually I scrapped the pressure cooker. I hope you have better luck than I had.

Absolutely, in fact is a bit faster than the regular pressure cooker. It may need a little more water than the traditional pressure cooker, as it seems to evaporate more. Hope this helps!

Sorry it took so long to respond. It's about 14" tall and 15" diameter. The diameter is because of the projections on the outside such as the digital controls and the moisture collection trap. This is my first pressure cooker, I love it and use it frequently.

I'm sorry I do not know, the only pressure cooker I have is the Instant Pot.

Sholeh, unfortunately we only have this 6.5 quart pressure cooker. I apologize for the inconvenience!

I did not use a pressure cooker, but I think it would be OK for a small to medium pressure cooker, let's say 3-5 quarts. It is quite powerful.

All of our current pressure cookers have a 15 pounds weight. The regulator will rock at 15 pounds. Please note that you only want a nice gentle rock, so you will need to adjust your stove to get the regulator rocking slowly. If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Department via phone at 1-800-877-0441 or e-mail us at contact1@gopresto.com. We are open M-F 8-4:15 CT.

Hi Monica...I did not notice that it is not the electric pressure cooker...the ring is for the electric one. More then likely not the same.

according to my research, the lower PSI on High pressure setting can affect the cooking time slightly. if a recipe shows a time range, obviously the longer time would be selected for the electric PC. i don't understand the one reply that said to "knock off 2/3rds..." when the lower PSI of the electric model would clearly call for slightly more time.

On the bottom of my cooker a stamped plate stated 120V 60HZ 195W Hope this helps.

I use this in my bakery in New Zealand for cooking diced Beef. I am pretty sure that the poundage would be 15lb's, judging by the amount of time it takes to cook the Beef and compared with my Tefal pressure cooker. There is only one level for this model as far as I can tell. The rotating dead weight pressure valve is the pressure indicator when it starts revolving turn the heat down until it is turning very slowly and cook for the required amount of time. I hope this helps. It is a very good pressure cooker.

Check the dimensions of your pressure cooker and compare them with the rack and steamer pan. There may be different sizes out there. Perhaps the manufacture of the product can give you an accurate answer.
