IP is worth it for HB eggs alone.
I like 5/4/4
1C H2O
5 min(to pressure), 4min(manual cook time), 4min (rest in the IP), ice bath.
Beautifully presented.

vb4677 said:Yeah that's the one odd "standard" with the IP - the cook time is the time it's under pressure, but doesn't count the prep time, the heat up time or the pressure release time. The 'standard' however, I've found is that the IP recipes you find online all use the "cook time" to mean the time under pressure.
One 'trick' is to use the saute feature as it heats up the pot before you add the lid... -

I have just a 2 minute cook time on my HB eggs, and natural release, then into an ice bath. Come out well cooked and SO peelable!!!

I've never talked to anyone who bought an IP who didn't love it.
And the eggs are just awesome. I can often get the shell off in one piece!Cincinnati, Ohio. Large BGE since 2011. Still learning. -
Greek yogurt is on the "project" list.
I agree with a second sealing ring.
I wouldn't mind getting a second SS IP pot.BrandonQuad Cities

Watched my Exec Chef Bro-in-law make a risotto old school way and stand there and stir forever. I did a mushroom one in the IP (some stirring during the saute phase, but no where near what he did!) and it turned out really good. Will do that again, as it's an impressive dish...Kansas City: Too Much City for One State - Missouri side

Does anyone think the number of eggs has an effect on the cooking time?

Do you need to keep them separated or is it ok to just pile 'em in there? I've seen photos of it both ways. Saw one where they cut an egg carton in half and used that to separate. Someone else used bottle caps. This is more my style...
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

That’s what I do @Carolina Q

I recall reading somewhere you could fill it half full with eggs just stacking 'em in there...in an 8 qt - that's a lot of cackleberries !

I read somewhere 36, not sure which unit that was.

I use the rack, and pile them in. 18 eggs is fine in the IP.BrandonQuad Cities

Cool. Off to buy a dozen. I have never bought anything other than grocery store eggs. There's a farm near me that sells free range eggs for $5/dozen and I'm tempted. Quite a difference from Aldi 49¢, hahaha! But they look a bit different too. Have to try it.

I pay $3 dozen. They are worth it. I could see $5 in CT.

Has anyone tried meatloaf in the IP?
