Multicooker Phillips 3136/03 and HD3137 / 03 (reviews and discussion)

reheated it to 40

This means that 40 ° C is the operating temperature of this mode. This is what it should be (the generally accepted temperature for the "Yogurt" mode, this is how it is stated by the manufacturer.

[divlesika]

divlesika, Yogurt was made in glass jars of 250 ml. I put a napkin under the jars like a towel, only less. The yogurt comes out better than in my old Mulinex yogurt maker. She's been overheating lately and the yoghurt didn't turn out quite as it should.
and here is yogurt

[Manna]

Yeah, and today my yoghurt turned out wonderful, right! By the way, when I measured milk after half an hour from the beginning, I expected to see 40 degrees, like a dough with water, but it was 37 and with a penny.

I have several questions ripe
What position should the valve be in and why are the positions with the "open" and "closed" icon drawn?
What is the reheating temperature after cooking? 70, 80 or 60?
Manna, do you know how long it takes a multicooker to reach a given temperature regime? For example, here I put the cake to bake for 1 hour at 150, so how quickly does it heat up?

[Kate]

Kate, the valve is always in the "closed" position. "Open" only when it is removed for flushing.

Heating is usually somewhere around 75 ° C.

For baking, it is better to use 120-130 ° C. At 150 ° C, the bottom will be too thick.

Usually a multicooker comes to operating temperature with little or no liquid in 10 minutes. With a liter of water - somewhere in 30 minutes. With 2-3 liters of water - somewhere in 40-50 minutes. Depending, of course, on the initial temperature of the contents of the bowl.

[Manna]

Manna, Thank you so much!

The cheesecake didn't work out very well. Like a casserole. My friend one suggests that maybe the baking time was too long? In theory, the cheesecakes should float a little after baking, even be liquid in the center, everything came out thick and thick for me

I put 1h20min at 120C,
600g weighed kaymak (like thick homemade sour cream)
3 eggs, 1.5 tbsp. l. starch, 100g sugar ..

[Kate]

Kate, for a cheesecake 120 ° C is too much. For them, ideally 115 ° С (maybe try 110 ° С? I myself did not bake that way - we do not eat such pastries). Well, 80 minutes is a lot at 120 ° C. The cheesecake just dried up.

But he practically did not fall, which is often the case with such baked goods in multicooker. It turned out very nicely!

Yesterday I made chicken fillet with cheese in a steamed cartoon. It sounds strange, of course, but it turned out very tasty. Not expected. The fact is that my child in the garden was awarded with parasites (sorry for such frankness) and after their treatment, you need to follow a diet for a month. And my little son is very fond of baked meat with cheese. In general, I got out))). I put the onion in half rings on the double boiler, then the beaten and slightly salted chicken fillet, grated cream cheese on top and in the double boiler for an hour. It turned out not only tasty but also aesthetically pleasing, and most importantly dietary. It's a pity I didn't have time to take a photo. But the family appreciated the taste. The meat is very juicy. I didn't pickle it. Just a little bit of sea salt before the finished one.

Manna, I was just guided by the average parameters of cheese recipes for mv in different sources - everywhere there were 120 ... And at least an hour. Maybe (badly paid attention), there was more initial product mass there? Hmm ..

Katerina, happy for you!

I found one more nuance for myself. On the soup program, the boil is quite gentle, soft bubbling, I would say.However, if you open the lid a couple of times (steam is released), or lay in the rest of the ingredients for the soup, then the multicooker goes to a boil. Until you open the lid again and let off steam. Today I tried to escape the foam from boiling pea soup through the valve. I don't know if this would have happened, because I opened and closed the lid on time and the soft bubbling mode returned. As I understood for myself, this is all a sensor. Somewhere he "understands" that T is sufficient and he must continue to gurgle, somewhere he thinks that he still needs to turn up the heat)))

I cannot find the optimal temperature and time ratio for baking other than biscuit. I wanted to do a manic. Alas, it did not work out as it should. The crust is thick and dark. The inside and the top are damp. Baked for 1 hour at a temperature of 130

I prefer to bake at 120 ° C. Raw baked goods can be made with an excess of liquid, because in a multicooker it does not evaporate as much as in an oven. Well, on top of the multicooker, the pastries are always pale. And also there are drops from condensation, and it may seem that it is damp.

Manna, thanks for the answer. Can you please tell me what time do you set for baking at this temperature? Alas, it didn’t seem to me that the manna was really raw (((. The biscuit turned out well for me, but with muffins and pies it’s not the first attempt. I do everything strictly according to the recipe. Therefore, I sin on the time and temperature regimes.

At 3197, I baked a wet stew for 50 minutes on one side and 20 minutes on the other at 120 ° C. At 3095 - bird cherry cake for 55 minutes at 120 ° C, without turning. The recipes can be found in this section.

Thanks, I will take a look. I want to try again to bake a cupcake)))

[Vitamin]

Vitamin, Katya, if you find something good and suitable for you - drop the links here!

Well, you can say, this time it turned out to be a cheesecake. The main thing is that it turned out in texture and consistency. Since it seems that for real taste, nevertheless, cream cheese is needed, not kaymak and cottage cheese
Baked for 120 40 minutes, then 25 minutes on heating.

[divlesika]

divlesika, Congratulations! And I have my first problems with cartoons. The auto-heating mode stopped working ((((I don’t want to carry it to the service. You can cook without it, of course, but I was still upset. ...

[Katerina]

Katerina, does not work in all modes or on certain?

Ooh ... how does it manifest? is the indicator on, but not warm? in theory, under the guarantee can be attributed without problems. But extra hassle, yeah ..

[Manna]

Manna, alas at all. Even "porridge". At first I thought that we could be wrong, and I checked it on this mode and it still does not work ...divlesika, manifests itself in the following. During the operation of the mode, the auto-heating indicator is on, and as soon as the mode comes to an end, the indicator goes out, the time is counted as on auto-heating, but there is no heating. At first I thought that I could just turn it off, but no. If the auto-heating is turned off, the cartoon goes into standby mode like on "yoghurt" and displays in this case "5d".

Here is the same problem

[Katerina]

Katerina, have you checked if there is heating when the temperature of the contents of the bowl drops to 75 ° C? Or just looking at the light bulbs? And what does the display show? I showed this nuance in testing 3197 - the heating turns on when the temperature of the contents of the bowl falls below 75 ° C. Just try to wait half an hour or an hour after the end of the regime. It seems to me that you are doing well with auto heating.

The fact is that before she immediately switched to auto-heating. And now, just counting down the time as on heating and it is not. The first time I noticed when I came home and the soup is cold. .. I thought I could accidentally turn it off. Then we'll watch. Here is the "porridge" mode. The heating and start indicator is on.
And here's what happens when the mode ends.

This is what happens at the end of the regime. And anyone.

7 minutes have passed and there is no heating

I wish you were right. The prospect of trips to service centers does not make me happy (((

before, she immediately switched to auto-heating. And now, just counting down the time as on heating and it is not. The first time I noticed when I came home and the soup is cold.

Apparently, in this model, auto-heating works differently, since earlier it was immediately turned on earlier. Perhaps some kind of failure has occurred. And in fact (in addition to a non-burning light bulb), heat is not maintained on heating, did I understand correctly? If only the light hadn't been on, it wouldn't be so bad.

[Manna]

Manna, no light bulb, no heating, that's just the point. I called the service center. They said that there was a failure or breakdown of the control board. I'll take it. Sorry. I am also very upset that after the cartoon is dismantled, there will be traces on it. I was warned immediately. Like this

It's a pity that this happened with the new multicooker. I really sympathize. Maybe try to replace it? Ask the service to make a conclusion ...

[Vitamin]

Vitamin, Katyusha, it's a pity, of course! On the Philips website I saw a line that within 20-30 days (I don't remember exactly how long) you can return the product if you didn't like it. Maybe refer to this wording and, in general, change the multicooker to a new one?

[Kate]

A-ahh! I just stewed cabbage in a multi-cooker - the heating did not turn on! (((
The button did not light up, the countdown started. Now I will urgently check it in a different mode ..

Some time later:
girls, I think I have the same thing ... I put some water on the "Porridge" for 5 minutes, the heating burned during the program, and then passed out. Time runs. Poured cold water to lower the temperature in the bowl - it does not turn on. What to do. In general, I live in Yalta, in Crimea, as far as I know, there are no service centers.

Kate, and you accidentally crashed not after using the "Porridge" mode? I used it for the first time yesterday, but it worked then. And today no longer.

Virgo, and if you forcibly turn on the Heating, does it work?

Manna, just looked in - the water is heating! You can breathe out to some extent. That is, the light is off, time goes on and heats up. I diluted it with cold water on purpose, put in a thermometer - there is an increase. I'll write if it catches up to 75. And we still need to check how things are with the preliminary shutdown.

the light is off, time passes and heats up

I have it in 3197 - the light does not light at the end of the mode, but as soon as the temperature reaches 75 ° C, the heating element turns on, and the temperature stays around this mark.

[Manna]

Manna,

the heating element turns on, and the temperature is kept near this mark

and the light does not light up?
In our model with Katerina, it was initially that the light came on. More precisely, it did not go out after the end of the program, but continued to burn.

[when the heating is turned on at the end of the mode, the "Heating" light is off]

In my 3197, the light initially went out at the end of the mode, while the display shows that the heating is on:

The peculiarity of this model is also that when the heating is turned on at the end of the mode, the "Heating" light is off, and on the display, in addition to the "On" indicator, the "Heating" indicator appears and there is a direct minute-by-minute countdown of the heating time.

Well, here it is logical when there is a "Heating" indicator on the display. We don't have it

But both you and me are counting down the heating time. And the heating element turns on only when the temperature reaches a critical level. I assumed that you have the same.

Well, I checked the previously disabled heating - everything is as it was, after the end of the program the letters Sd (or 5d) light up, the heating indicator and the start button flash ...
In general, on the one hand, I'm glad that the heating still works, but I'm worried how long it will last .. Return of goods is valid within 28 days from the date of purchase, however, the address of the collection point is only in Moscow. And it's not a fact that a new, same multicooker will not give the same failure.

P. s. temperature measurement showed a maximum figure of 68 kopecks.

Manna, I want to refer to your experience again. Something I do not understand the moment. Yesterday I cooked porridge from rolled oats (for 2 multi-glasses of cereal), with milk + water.At the end of the regime, I opened the lid - I really liked how the process looked in the bowl - a barely noticeable peaceful bubbling, which was almost invisible. Now in the morning I cooked the same thing, but on water, without milk. I opened the lid and the foam rose to the ceiling like pea soup. The boiling is violent. What is the matter, I do not understand.

[Manna]

Hello Manna, Kate! In general, alas, but the heating does not work for me in all modes (the "yogurt" mode does not count) I called yesterday in support of Phillips, the policy of exchanging goods for a month in Ukraine is not carried out. I did not measure the temperature. I made a conclusion when, after a two-hour absence, the dish cooled down. But before it was kept hot. Of course, auto-heating is not a fundamental issue. Some people don't like him at all. It's just that I chose a multicooker for a very long time, and hoped that the model was correct and there would be no problems. And I trust this company for a long time and firmly. Therefore, it is doubly insulting. Where is the guarantee that something else will not be found in another month.

[Manna]

Manna, heating separately from the modes turns on and works. But in order to keep the dish hot at the end of cooking, no.

I called the company, and about happiness - it turns out there is a service center even in Yalta!
They offered to contact there, they say, what they say. Or if you don't want to repair, write a defect inspection report and already contact Philips for a refund or, possibly, an exchange. It's really dumb to change something to the same model ..

[divlesika]

divlesika, I'm glad that you do. It's still better than taking it to a service center.
It seems my cartoon lives its own life. Recently I cooked porridge for my husband. And not without surprise I noticed that at the fortieth minute the porridge was still very hot and the cartoon was warming up. Yes, the bulb didn't light up, but the heating worked. It's strange. I will continue to observe in other modes.

[divlesika]

divlesika, can you agree with a surcharge for another model? Or choose for a similar cost. Phillips has good models 3158, 3197. Unfortunately, we do not have these models in Ukraine.

[Vitamin]

Vitamin, well, I've already checked it on porridge, cooking, heating, stewing - heating works everywhere. With a dying light bulb.
Katya, could you look at the serial number on the multicooker body and write? The year and week of manufacture are indicated there. I wonder if our numbers are the same)) The code is XP1A1445000328, skip the first 4 digits, then the year is -14, then the weeks are 45 weeks.

Katya I have XP1A1452001100 Weeks are different. But there is only one problem. Moreover, it appeared almost simultaneously.

hmm ..
Katya, if you wish, could you check your heating once again on some program? For example, pour some water on a multi-cooker, set the program for 5-10 minutes. And then at the end, without touching anything, pour in cold water so that the temperature drops. If the heating still works for you, then it should heat up, like mine. From warm-cold to perceptibly hot.

I cooked pilaf. The heating worked, but the light still didn’t come on. Well a little later I will do an experiment with water, for example, for multi-cook and stewing. I will unsubscribe about the results
