Choosing a multicooker, pressure cooker, rice cooker (2)

[Gingi]

Gingi, gemlux GL-PC-27, 2 liters. In fact, a liter and a half of usable volume. Good baby, inexpensive. There are drawbacks, of course ... But making friends with her is easy. I have this since winter, I really like it. Soup for one meal, side dish for 4-5 people, good porridge. Rice cooks well, there is even a separate button.
Of the significant drawbacks: there are stupid incomprehensible buttons. You can't make out without instructions, but there are no instructions ... There is no insert for steam, although it is declared. The bowl pah-pah, but it is not clear from what (like not ceramics, and not teflon ...), it happens, it sticks. But I put a piece of baking paper under the muffins, okay.
In general, I took it for "catching up", to the six-liter ARC, but in fact I use a very comfortable baby much more often.
By the way, ARC now has babies too.
Polaris is also a good 3-liter pressure cooker, but they haven't had it on the site for a long time. And in the spring it was at a good discount.

Rita, Raechka, it happens ... I was too lazy to write it in Latin ...

[Udaccha]

Udaccha, and ARC not considering? Little has been written about them, but soooo cool! Yes, there are not many buttons (and for me they would be even less needed), but the range is 4-5-6 liters, spare parts and bowls. Now they have small pressure cookers.
Of course, they lose to many in terms of functionality, but, in fact, what is needed from a multicooker-pressure cooker? There are frying, baking, yogurt without pressure (in their last series), there are two pressures (0.7 and 0.3). Kashki do not run away. Even in a six-liter, you can cook two servings of porridge))
In general, I have ARC of 6 liters for about two years. I'm sooooo happy. Now if I choose from all, I would take the same one. Multicooker is not even close.

Lena, thanks for your opinion and advice!)
I looked, the price is not so high, it is cheaper than my usual multi Redmond) I will read, very interesting. Maybe I will buy such a dacha. I wonder what materials it is made of, which is so cheap.

Udaccha, look at the polaris. Mine is five years old. I write honestly their bowls are bad, but with pods. I bought it from Redmond without pens and I'm using it. Mine is five years old. I use it for yoghurts, ham, suvid, jellied meat, as it turned out in the fifth year it has an excellent deep fat - the oil does not burn, does not splash. Porridge is convenient for me on the stove in a milk cooker. But in terms of porridges, I'm still fussy (I don't eat semolina, yachts, oatmeal through my teeth, corn), that's friendship and rice aldante from multi for my taste. Soups in it are normal, but I don't like frying in a pressure cooker. Bakes fine. Most importantly, you can turn off the auto-heating and the multi-cook is excellent

Olya, thanks! But it’s because of the bowl that I want a fundamentally different cartoon. In Redmond (I have an RMC-M90, a bowl with handles ... that was my condition when buying) everything literally immediately began to stick to the bottom. It does not fry, but extinguishes. In general, I use it, but without pleasure. I cooked jellied meat smartly, I don't remember 6 or 8 hours. I loaded it up to my throat - nothing came out. By the way, I chose the Extinguishing mode. On the Internet, there are many who do it in this mode. But I do not have enough taste and richness in cooked dishes.
Even on the stove in a saucepan from Kukmara, everything turns out so tasty that sometimes I prefer to cook on gas, and not in a cartoon.
I want it tasty and fast)))) Recently I have to cook a lot, to facilitate and speed up the process)))

I have both Shtebochka and Element. Shteba is good in that you can set the temperature from 30 grams. and higher. And it's easy to operate. I love her very much. The element is good for everyone, and you can set the temperature in it, but from 50 grams. And this is a very difficult choice between these multicooker. I became friends with Shteba from the first day and there was not a single puncture. And Mal swore with Element. Both bake well. But the Element bakes the top, if you bake charlotte-type pies and you don't need to turn it over, turn it over in Shteba. In Shtebu, if we cook jellied meat, we pour water to the very eyeballs, this will not work with the Element. But in Elik, the meat is just super, and there are many more excellent qualities. Now my Shtebochka is on vacation, a man is working in my kitchen. I really liked the first in the Element. Ragu is just mortality. I fry mushrooms, and here the man is beyond competition. I chose all the multicooker, and much more on the advice of our girls, and of course, my heart fell.

Lyudmila, is not that kind of meat obtained in Shteba? Here in Tefala, everyone writes that the meat is simply awesome.
If the top is baked in the Element, then it is probably induction yet?
I'm ready to give up baking. I bought a lot of rings early and bake a biscuit in the oven. I can only bake in it in the country. And then, if I already have a small oven, I no longer bake in it. For me, this is not an important point in the cartoon. But the preparation of the main dishes is in the first place. And in these two multicooker, the temperature setting step is 1? I read that Tefala is 10. For many, this is a minus. And that also stops me.
Now, like all of you, I will break down and have a dozen cartoons at home and I will be kicked out of it))))))))))))))

In Shtebe I cook only coNpot and yogurt.

good day
Why do you cook such a limited list of dishes in it?



I read something about Steba ... quickly some breakdowns are formed ...

I will read, very interesting. Maybe I will buy such a dacha. I wonder what materials it is made of, which is so cheap.

Well, by the way, the materials there are quite good. There are no burrs, inconsistencies. Such a heavy saucepan. Shiny - metallic. Bowl pah-pah, not a scratch yet. In my Witford flooring, it is a type of modern flooring. It seems that ceramics and daikin are written in different models.
I heard about them that this is a Russian company with factory production in China. Therefore, the prices are low. Can you compare Polaris (with the type of their promotions and discounts), or some not particularly advertised companies? Prices can be even lower. Another issue is that the quality is unknown.
Lack of ARC in small functionality. Only the cooking times in the programs and the cooking temperature change. And the rest is default. The pressure is about 0.3 on chicken and rice and 0.7 on meat, jellied meat.
They also have an interesting lid design, especially noticeable on baked goods. The condensation is collected inside, under the removable disc. And does not drip on the cake))
In general, a decent saucepan

But is this time selected by the user himself or is it written in the recipe book? For example, I have no idea at what temperature and how long it takes to cook the chicken in a particular cartoon. How many products can I spoil while I learn?))))
I have already thought about buying Steba, because there are also few modes there and it would be necessary to understand at what temperature and what to choose in order to cook it before cooking the same pilaf. I'm not such an experienced multicooker user to figure it out on the fly)))) Therefore, now I think if I can handle it))))

[Udaccha]

Udaccha, for Shteba we have such a huge number of recipes on our website that it is simply impossible to make a mistake. If anything, you can always ask in the topics on both Stebs. Here, almost every hostess has or had a Shteba.



And pilaf in Stebs is a very large amount completely in recipes, with all the instructions.

Quote: Sapphire from Yesterday at 08:12 I cook only coNpot and yoghurt in Stebe.Good afternoon, why are you preparing such a limited list of dishes in it?

Because each dish has its own slow cooker or slow cooker. I have many different ones. Baking in the oven only. Previously, she fried meat and boiled jellied meat in it. Now jellied meat in an 8-liter slow, meat in Elik. For a long time there was a breakdown in the lid. The part that supports the valve has broken off. The husband disassembled, everything is kept on parole, flimsy plastic. I glued it, everything still works.
Now I also bought Orson. The lid is better made here, the only thing for me is inconvenient to open it, I have to use both hands. In Shteba, the handle is convenient with one hand and can be removed. Fries harder than Orson. Yogurt does great, it doesn't lie with the temperature.

[Udaccha]

Lyudmila, is not that kind of meat obtained in Shteba?

UdacchaWhen I didn't have an Element, Shtebochka suited me for everything. I still love her dearly. The element is an induction multicooker, and what is valuable to me is that you set the temperature yourself, or by default, the dish is ready immediately, as soon as the peasant warned that everything is ready, there is no need to wait for the release of steam. Shteba is gaining temperature and also resetting. And that multicooker breaks down, so now it is literally such a problem for all equipment. Previously, the warranty was given for 10 years or more. My old Panasonic has been working for 10 years and will work the same amount. The Japanese Mixer and Brown Coffee Grinder are 35 years old and work just fine.

for Shteba, we have such a huge number of recipes on our website that it is simply impossible to make a mistake. If anything, you can always ask in the topics on both Stebs. Here, almost every hostess has or had a Shteba.

Helen agrees. We have so many recipes for Shteba, and the girls will always tell you if something is unclear.

Elena, that is, if I decide on Shteba, I will not be disappointed?)

[Udaccha]

Udaccha, the staff, of course, will not disappoint. And all the equipment breaks down, unfortunately. At this point, whoever is lucky ...
The ARC website has recipes with cooking times. And here, on HP, there are discussions on cooking (a lot less stuff, of course, but also less to read).
And the principles of cooking in a pressure cooker are simple. By time - about three times less than minutes)) chicken - 20 minutes, potatoes - 5 minutes, pasta - divide the time from packaging by three, etc.

[Udaccha]

Udaccha, Shteba can only disappoint if it breaks down. And any current multi can have it, the girls have already written a lot about this. Therefore, start actively exploiting it immediately, after all, it has a 1 year (sometimes 2 years) warranty. Pay attention to the first difficulties with it right away, those about which they wrote here. If anything, immediately for an exchange! But I would not call it difficulties, these are just peculiarities of work. The same steam release, if necessary, forcibly release steam. For example, when boiling potatoes, if you boiled them with a decent amount of water. Before using it, I was so afraid of it! And after two hours of use, she did it with her eyes closed.
Shteba and only Shteba, 6 liter is better, XL And immediately a Teflon bowl to her.

Wow passion, I missed this moment. Can't be restored? In Shtebe I cook only coNpot and yogurt.

No, it is not.
The clap was from the control panel. The smoke and the smell of burning went. No longer included. It was dd2.
We passed it to Ozone without any problems. The money was returned.
But! I have already 5 years and dd1 Staff.
I cook in it. The husband had already repaired the cover.
But I love her all the same.
It is a pity that it did not grow together with the 2nd. It is better in terms of functionality.
I never leave one now.
And before I was not afraid ...

[Rita]

I really hope that the issue will be resolved in your favor and without nerves!

Rita, thank you, and it happened, on 30.07 I handed it over to the server / center, on 05.08 they issued a marriage certificate, took it to the store where I bought it (branded magician.Redmond), now I'm waiting for a refund, they said 2-3 days, but so far they are silent.

[Udaccha]

I'm reading you while) everywhere, I jump here and there)
To be honest, it's a pity that something can break down so quickly in Shteba ..
I understand that the technique is not durable, but not as fast. I read about some kind of bending of the legs, about pressing the lid ... it's now generally about multicooker.
With my still favor to the multicooker-pressure cooker Tefal, it still does not fit in my head how condensation can flow from behind in her other cartoons ... but with all that, she cooks very tasty - everyone writes about this.
Even the promoted Redmond works. The bowl, of course, like a frying pan, is not eternal and everyone knows the pros and cons of this or that coating. Moreover, the load on these bowls is many times greater in multicooker.

Udaccha, the staff, of course, will not disappoint. And all the equipment breaks down, unfortunately. At this point, whoever is lucky ...

It was because of the cooking time that I wanted a multicooker-pressure cooker)

The clap was from the control panel. The smoke and the smell of burning went. No longer included. It was dd2.

I forgot to add that all the sockets in the house were immediately knocked out - there is such a machine on the counter ...

now I'm waiting for a refund,

Tanyusha, good luck with that!

yes, it is still difficult (scary) for me to imagine the work of a multicooker-pressure cooker without any experience with such a toy at all)))) probably if I had such a pressure cooker with a set of programs that think for me, then I probably would have been easier to approach choosing a new pressure cooker. Shteba for me is some kind of higher level)))))

[Udaccha]

Udaccha, as soon as you buy, in a week you will laugh at your own words! With Shteba everything is so simple! As I understood, with ARS-ohm too.

[Udaccha]

Udaccha, don't worry, everything will work out. I have Shteba only a week, I study, I like it. Yes, there were already troubles - I decided to boil the milk, and then quickly release the pressure in order to drain, pour a new one and make condensed milk. The milk came out of the valve, it was fun ... Learn from mistakes.
I have a question for experienced users. You need to cook a duck, or rather a duck, last year, old. Found a recipe for pickling. I tried it on, the whole does not fit, cut it in half across, pickled it. I looked at the recipes, but they contain either whole chicken or parts of duck. I understand that first turn on the frying and fry the halves on all sides, and then "Meat" pressure is 0.7. But how long does it take? 40 minutes for chicken or pork probably won't be enough?

Buy and write! We will control your every step!

[Udaccha]

Shteba for me is some kind of higher level already)))))

Udaccha, there is no top level, I chose it, turned it on and do not bother cooking the pot!

40 minutes for chicken or pork probably won't be enough?

40 minutes under pressure? Chicken? Also 0.7 ... Or do you mean cooking plus until the pressure drops by itself?
In general, how many recipes I read, chicken and fish are written everywhere with a pressure of 0.3.I usually put it on for 17-20 minutes, even if half an hour with pressure is already falling apart into the trash.
Of course, this works if the chicken from the store is young, and not last year's treadmill))
And for last year's drake, 40 minutes should be enough. Well, the meat of the ducks is denser, more pressure is possible, probably

[Alenka578]

Alenka578, 0.7 is automatically put, I have not changed. Thank you, probably 40 minutes and I'll put it on.

there were some troubles - I decided to boil the milk, and then quickly release the pressure in order to drain, pour a new one and make condensed milk. Milk came out of the valve, it was fun ...

El, how much milk was there that it decided to run away? I'm afraid of that too, but I've never escaped from a pressure cooker. Boiled a maximum of 2 liters in a six liter. But you can see from the walls - he is not particularly trying to escape, although I usually release the pressure. It turns out melted very quickly - I put it on a pressure of 0.7 for 20-25 minutes (in ARC this is the meat button). Then I ferment the fermented baked milk, delicious. And you do not need to heat it at night

[Alenka578]

Alenka578, there were 1.5 liters of milk. I put the cooking on a couple for 2 minutes. At first I did not close the lid, then I closed it, and it started running even before the countdown. And I put the ghee according to the recipe book for Steba - languishing for 6 hours. For a long time, I will not do it anymore, mine said it tastes like boiled, well, maybe a little richer.

[Elya_lug]

Elya_lug, and how many degrees are cooking? Exactly 100? Or a little more?
With the lid open, I did not risk putting it. And I never put it in a slow cooker. But in a pressure cooker, under pressure - class! If you put 5 minutes, you get the usual boiled. If 20 - ghee, and with froth at the bottom it is delicious! And she even put frozen food, somehow there was no time at all, shook the ice out into the bowl, closed it, set it for 20 minutes and left. I thought it would burn. Nope! Well, yes, it stood a little longer until it melted. But the same baked milk came out))

[Alenka578]

Alenka578, I don't know how many degrees, I'll look at home. I will probably still boil the milk on gas.

Well, the money from Redmond has returned to the card. The whole process of using the multi, the conclusion of the SC and the refund took only 3 weeks.
During this time, I bought a practically new Redmond 01 for my relatives on Avito, everything is in perfect condition, the cartoon itself is clean, the bowl is like new, and even with a box, it seems they used very little. The price is generally a fairy tale. I have a 011 model, a complete analogue of 01. While testing the "baby" at home, cooks and bakes amazingly, does not burn, does not run away ... and why they stopped producing them, ideal little multi, without unnecessary bells and whistles and quirks.

[win-tat]

win-tat, Tanyusha! Glad for a good ending to a sad story! Good luck with the 011th cartoon!

Glad for a good ending to a sad story!

Lenochka, thanks! And how glad I am, so quickly I have not yet received a single refund, well, apart from Ozone, there are no problems at all, in any case it was before.
