Question 1

Does it come with a spare gasket?

Accepted Answer

The Japanese domestic package typically includes one spare silicone gasket in a small plastic bag. Some retailers may remove it; check the product listing or contact the seller to confirm.

Question 2

How long does it take to pressurize?

Accepted Answer

On an average gas burner, reaching high pressure takes about 8–12 minutes when empty, or 10–15 minutes with food and liquid. On induction it's slightly faster, around 7–10 minutes.

Question 3

Is the bottom fully sealed or does it have a rivet that might leak?

Accepted Answer

The base is made from a single stamped stainless steel sheet—there's no rivet on the inner floor, so leaks are extremely rare. The only seal is the silicone gasket in the lid, which should be replaced every 18–24 months with heavy use.

Question 4

Will it work on a smooth glass (radiant) electric range?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the base is flat and thick enough to avoid warping on electric glass tops. Just be sure not to slide it when full—always lift it.

Question 5

Can I double a soup recipe in this 6L cooker?

Accepted Answer

You can generally double a recipe that calls for a 3L cooker, but never fill above the 'MAX' line printed inside the pot—about two-thirds full for liquids or half full for foods that foam. Exceeding that can clog the valve.

Question 6

Does this cooker whistle like an old-style pressure cooker?

Accepted Answer

No. It has a continuous steam vent that silently releases excess pressure—you'll hear sizzling when cooking but no rhythmic whistle. The steam release valve, when manually opened, does make a loud hiss, so keep your hand away.

Question 7

Can I use it without the trivet inside?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but for most recipes, using the trivet keeps food from sticking to the bottom and ensures even heating. The trivet is especially important for cooking beans or grains directly in the liquid.
