Electric pressure cooker CUCKOO (general questions and user reviews)

Well, what then? Induction is just a way ... Like an induction cooker compared to a conventional cooker, well, it requires different dishes .. But who said that the taste of pancakes fried in a pan on an induction cooker differs from the taste of pancakes from a classic cooker. In Panasonic, in the "baking" mode, you can perfectly and quickly fry everything you need: meat, chicken, frying ...
The answer is not valid, not reasoned

I mean the speed of heating and the quality of the dishes ... you can't argue that it is better to cook in WOK?!?!

Aunt Besya, I am not campaigning for a cuckoo (I don’t know myself whether I want it or not), but I do not agree with the statement that “it’s great and quick to fry”. You can fry, but not quickly. The only good thing is that you do not need to stand near it, so as not to burn.

and in Kuku I fry no more than 5 minutes on average !!! And the potatoes turned out in 15 !!!

It depends on what to fry ... If, for example, the meat is good, then it is not recommended to fry it in an ordinary pan for a long time, so as not to spoil it. The main thing is to warm up the pan correctly. So much depends on the original product, after all, and not on the device in which you cook.

Who has a Cuckoo CMC-HE1054F multicooker, could you please measure your pot. I wanted to know the top and bottom diameter, as well as the height. How much is the working volume in liters really obtained if they write that the pan is 4.1 liters?

The lower one is 18 and the upper one is 24. The recommended volume is 3 liters, but the jelly turns out to be more than in Panassa 18th. CHECKED empirically !!!

Many thanks to zvezda for the information. I also wanted to clarify the top diameter 24 - is it the inner diameter, without walls, or external with walls? And if possible the height of the saucepan.

The lower one is 18 and the upper one is 24. The recommended volume is 3 liters, but the jelly is larger than in Panassa 18th. CHECKED empirically !!!

Well, at least kill me, I don't understand how in a saucepan with a capacity of 3.1 it can be obtained more than in a saucepan with a capacity of 4.5 Liters, and in Africa a liter ...

There the pan itself is larger than in Panassa, it's just that the mark is 3 liters (the last one) and maybe due to the fact that the broth does not boil out during cooking ?? After all, when I cooked in Panas, there was always steam, but in the Cuckoo it cooks under pressure and nothing soars ... this is the only explanation ... and it turned out above the mark.

Well, at least kill me, I don't understand how in a saucepan with a capacity of 3.1 it can be obtained more than in a saucepan with a capacity of 4.5 liters, and in Africa a liter ...

In Panasonic, the entire pan is 4.5 liters and the working volume can be 3 to 3.2 liters. Don't be confused. And about the Cuckoo, zvezda wrote about the working volume, and not about the size of the pan. If you want to measure in Panasonic the upper and lower diameters and height of the pan and write on the forum. Then we calculate which is more.

[Star]

Star, here you are wrong, in Panas the jellied meat also does not boil away.

Why bother when you can just fill a pot with water

And that's right! To the top mark inside the saucepan, exactly 3.5 liters

Tatulya ... and I have boiled away !!! Up to the top edge of my saucepan is 4.85.

Star! Thanks for the recipes and tips! : flowers: I read, and I charge myself with energy! (y) I also want to buy 1054. I cook in cartoon 1018, I like it.But still, I wonder if it is possible to cook 2 dishes at once in this Kuku 1054? It will depend on whether I buy it ... In my cartoon, I often cook 2 dishes at once, I really like it. Answer at least someone .......

do you mean a double boiler ??? There was simply no need .... but wait a bit !!! I will definitely do it ... or if you want to ask what you need (just for you) ... I'll cook it, it's easier for me !!!

yes, I'm talking about a double boiler. I, for example, cook rice or potatoes in the saucepan itself, chicken legs or fish in foil for a child on top in a double boiler (on Pilaf mode). or below meat or roast, or stuffed potatoes, and in a double boiler vegetables for salad (in the Baking mode). and in kuku, as I understood, there is also a timer? how long can cooking be delayed?

Tell me, what kind of separator plate goes to this pressure cooker? can you cook 2 dishes at once with it? did anyone use it?

[Scarecrow !!!]

Scarecrow !!!Rulka-otpad, but I can say with confidence that 45 minutes is enough !!! We cook it often, while it always turns out from ice cream.
galinankaI bought it, but have not tried it yet, but it says that for two types of rice .... although we will come up with something of our own. I don’t think there will be a problem with two products.

zvezda, I will wait for your new recipes using this plate, I don’t really want to cook 2 types of rice at once, but meat with rice or something else ..... in general, you know better, but I’m still thinking about buying this Kuku ..... I want a multifunctional pressure cooker so that I can cook 2 dishes at once - the main one and on a double boiler. I look forward to your recipes!

Scarecrow, knuckle just class! Is 45 minutes enough? It's just fantastic !!! Great!

[zvezda!]

zvezda! I found a site on the network that you visit and very much upset me there one information !!! It is clear that we are talking about a completely different model, but still about the same company - Cuckoo User Caroline ( 🔗) twice in a month and a half of operation of the multicooker, the valve failed. You know something about her problems: what is the reason, for example?

Tell me, what kind of separator plate goes to this pressure cooker? can you cook 2 dishes at once with it? did anyone use it?

I tried, stewed chicken with spices in the multi-cook mode, and in the next section there was (now everyone will laugh a lot) - barley. I’m talking about barley for the tenth time, in my opinion. Well, I love her.

It turned out very tasty, because pearl barley, in fact, was cooked in chicken broth. The only problem is that it is difficult to guess the amount of liquid. I poured some water, and the chicken itself gives the juice. How much she will release it is unknown, so it is better to not add water so that instead of cereal it does not turn out a mess. I kind of got it, the pearl barley turned out to be non-mucous and very tasty. In addition, I think that it is better to cook long-cooking cereals, legumes, and potatoes this way (in tandem with meat). Rice, for example, it seems to me, during the stewing of chickens (so it is also under pressure) will turn into a smear.

Aunt Besya !!!Unfortunately, this Carolina is not a regular, or rather not a frequent user of that site, and it was about the 6 thousand Cuckoo, I have been using it for only a month and so far there have been no problems, and on the road, there are not even hints at all, so I can't say anything.
Scarecrow !!!Here is the photo where my knuckle from the bones took 45 minutes to prepare !!! We do it very often, so I can say for sure that it is enough, but I fry it for 3 minutes before that !!!

[zvezda,]

zvezda, and you cooked milk porridge in the "cuckoo" ?? How is it cooked there? How long does it take? Somehow it doesn't reach me (in the brake) can it work just like a multicooker, without pressure ?? Otherwise, I don’t understand .. But I finally moved in, how does the 20-thousandth differ from the 33-thousandth

[Aunt Besya !!!]

I cook porridge often, but we only eat rice, and I cook it for 23 minutes from 1 cup, there is simply no more need. But I just cooked the rice for the side dish in the cooker mode, I didn’t time it ... well, you need to add another 5 minutes to bleed off the steam.One thing I can say for sure, very much faster than in Panassa.Aunt Besya !!!I myself do not know exactly how they differ, tell me, I'm interested !!!

Nightmare!

I have a price of 20 thousand rubles in my head does not fit, but it turns out there is for 33!

What does she do for this money or is she made of gold and platinum?

Yes, it is a gold-plated bowl !!! Yes, not so expensive 20 thousand if decomposed by functions !!! After all, count 5 devices for this money. For example, I will now sell the stove ...

[Dairy rice ??? Specify, pliz!]

Dairy rice ??? Specify, pliz! Because we really respect milk porridge, millet, rice ...
Well, somebody will say, does it work without pressure ?? In order not to cook for 23 minutes, but put milk porridge at night and get a ready-made breakfast in the morning ?? I don’t need even 23 minutes in the morning, sleepyhead, I don’t have 23 minutes
So ... What the manager told me ...
CMC-HE1054F, then the one that costs 19,990 rubles
HD 1010 FI GOLD - 33990 rubles
Both have induction heating
The first, unlike the second (oddly enough) is Russified, has a voice guide in Russian, modes "oven or" Russian oven "and" bread maker.
The second has a gold-plated bowl with 1000 (!) Samples and a dozen specialized programs for rice, which are simply removed in the first, as irrelevant for Russia. Anyway, the store manager said that even taking into account the "golden" bowl, a more expensive nafig is not needed !! So that's it!

Yes, I also did not find anything clever in an expensive cuckoo besides a bowl and wondered why pay so much? It's good that I didn't buy ...

I cooked porridge. Dairy. What - to remember. I just cooked millet and ... I don't remember which one else. A timer is set and in the morning there will be porridge for breakfast, just like in Panasonic. I don't remember if there is pressure in the cooker mode. I need to see when I will cook again. Then I'll write. And she fry me a little porridge. Of course, it will not fry very liquid milk, but thicker - there is a little. A light, light fry appears at the bottom.

Unfortunately, I don’t use the timer, so I can’t say, but I’m looking forward to breakfast at 4 am and 8 am it was hot !!! But he doesn't fry the porridge, that's for sure !!!! I was also told that I do not need 33 at all !!!!

[zvezda]

zvezda, please tell me, how do you like that cuckoo that over 6500? I wonder if she is better than Panas? As far as I remember, you also have Panas for comparison. There was also a dispute about the CR-0821FI, does it have a pressure cooker mode? The valve, that is ... And, in general, is it comparable with the model for 20 tons? How did you like it? You promised a report

valve to valve is different. Anyone in a cooker with any device will have a hole for steam to escape

Unfortunately, I just cook a little, we just don't have time to eat so much. Panass was given to me for a while, poyuzat, in general, the jelly cooked in it and led me to buy a Cuckoo, but compared to a Cuckoo for 6500, it cooks Cuckoo faster and the quality of the saucepan is better in it, because there is a multi-cook mode !!! Suggest a more common meal in your home and I'll cook it at 0821F. it will be easier for me. I can’t tear myself away from my Kuku 1054, I’ve already grown together with her ... even my husband can cook in it ...

HD 1010 FI GOLD - 33990 rubles

When I was interested in this question from the managers of the sales company, they explained to me that these pans have special modes of cooking rice for sushi, and some kind of special and healthy mode of cooking rice.
These pots are used by restaurants that prepare rice for sushi - these models of pots are specially ordered.

Well, well, the rich also cry

Phew, finally registered!
Well hello, dear forum users!
After reading this topic to the 10th page, I ran to order a cuckoo, because I realized that my collection of kitchen devices was far behind the times. And now the third evening I exercise - on Monday meat with vegetables (according to Jerome's recipe - "Irish stew"), yesterday borsch, today meat with buckwheat.Everything turned out quite well, except for a few misfires with the buttons (which did not affect the quality of the final product). However, I was faced with an incomprehensible phenomenon - on the first day, the device regularly informed me with a voice "cooking is over", "steam is being discharged", "the dish is prepared", and also beautifully cooked. However, apparently, in the process of "poking the buttons" I knocked down some settings, and yesterday the cuckoo stopped turning off at the set time and reporting something. I suppose that somewhere at the wrong time I pressed the "cancel" button (on a multi-cook), and the device remembered this, and now it will wait for cancellation all the time on a multi-cook. We are talking about this program. because today, during the warm-up period, the cuckoo switched off and chirped, as expected. Can someone explain to me what needs to be done to restore the correct setting? There is nothing about this in the instructions (which I have long ceased to be surprised at, so often I observe incomplete information in them).
I beg the specialists to respond !!!

[Sloth]

Firstly, I promised someone about the "Kashvarka" mode to write: at the end of the program it cooks with pressure (on the display the inscription lights up "under pressure").

Secondly, Sloth Has she stopped communicating anything at all, or only cuckoo at the end?
In multi-cook mode, she writes "Done", but this is not the end of cooking. That is, the dish can be eaten, but while it does not count the minutes indicated on the display to the end (what it does at this time - I have no idea), it will not bake. Quietly opens earlier, but from her point of view, this is an interruption of the program.

It was interesting to me about porridge

beautiful pasta!

zvezda, and in this photo a saucepan of another cheaper cuckoo?

[Yes]

Yes, I wrote. But apparently you quickly get used to the good, although I can't say anything bad about 0821. The saucepan is good in quality, easy to clean, not scratched, just cooks longer ...

she stopped reporting anything at all. In a multi-cooker, it counts down the prescribed minutes to the end, but does not turn off and does not go into heating mode. She continues cooking (and the display reads "cooking") for at least 20 minutes. after the expiration of the set time (I did not have enough patience to wait longer).
In my opinion, this disgrace occurs only on the multi-cook program. Yesterday on the program, she warmed up everything regularly and switched off.
I will try other programs today to make sure everything works correctly. Thank you for your sympathy, Chuchelka!

Scarecrow, zvezda! Once again, I want to ask, because, unfortunately, I did not wait for an answer: is it possible to cook 2 dishes in a cookie at once, in the saucepan itself and on a double boiler? Can the timer be set in any program? In Panasonic, out of 6 timer programs, only 3. can be set in a cookie? I would like to know all the subtleties .... decide to buy or not.

Who did I answer about cooking with a separator plate? Did I confuse something? ... Oh, okay.

Cooking in a bowl and a steam basket at the same time is not forbidden. In an ordinary pressure cooker, something is being prepared. And I have no idea about the timer (delaying the start of cooking). The cooker is put on the timer, I haven't tried the rest. We need to poke, look, then I'll write.

My five-year-old child told me today with an enigmatic face: "Mom, your ... samovar is hissing in the kitchen." Why the samovar and where this word comes from - I still cannot understand, but it was funny.

I can't say about the timer at all, I never cook on it ... I don't like it when I'm not around so that something is cooked ... but I tried two dishes at the same time, only the truth is rice below, and chicken breasts above, it turned out great ... Scarecrow really wrote about the separating plate, but I have not tried it yet, but I am sure that everything will work out !!!

Who did I answer about cooking with a separator plate? Did I confuse something? ... Oh, okay.

I also asked a question about the separating plate, and about the steam plate. Everything is clear about the separating liquid, there the liquid must be guessed, since it is a liquid, the total is obtained for two dishes. now it's clear with steam.
scarecrow, zvezda! Thank you very much for your answers!

The cooker is put on the timer, I haven't tried the rest. We need to poke, look, then I'll write.

I will wait for an answer about the timer, for me this is very important. I have a small child, especially there is not enough time for anything, the timer is the right thing. in my multicooker I constantly use it, it's a pity, only that there it is only on 3 modes .... maybe in this pressure cooker there are more modes with a timer ... I'm waiting for your answers.

she stopped reporting anything at all. In a multi-cooker, it counts down the prescribed minutes to the end, but does not turn off and does not go into heating mode.

In my opinion, this disgrace occurs only on the multi-cook program. Yesterday she warmed up everything on the program and switched off.

I have the same disgrace. It does not turn off and informs about the end of cooking. What to do? Return back?

Panic is canceled !!!!! Calm down !!! Let's figure it out ..... all this happens on the Multipovar program ?? Did I understand correctly??? There, first, there is heating and pressure formation (I think Chuchelka would say better, she is a specialist in pressure cookers) then the excess steam is released and only then the cooking itself !!!! Wait a bit, don't worry !!!

So far, I have only managed to try two programs: a multi-cooker and a double boiler, and both do not turn off.

Shows the minutes remaining and then silently immediately switches to heating mode.
