what sort of Pot comes with your E.P ?
stainless steel, like the IP or Non Stick ?
Im wondering if your Pot is lighter than the IP stainless or not
for clean up, in your case and mine
shy not fill the pot with water, and then pressure ( clean ) cook the brine away ?
it would be interesting to compare your pot with the IP's pot :
surface type and actual weight of the pot that tells you its thickness
cheers
and a Happy New Year to all Pot Heads !
I'm not sure which model of Cuisinart PC that @DiggingDogFarm is using, but the one that I had included a non-stick inner pot. The pot was uniform thickness, not thick enough IMHO, so I did find bottom-scorching to be a problem at times. Also it was not long before the non-stick coating started getting scratches which eventually led to chipping of the non-stick surface. I understand that it's possible to order a stainless liner for the Cuisinart PC but I did not ever buy one. Now the IP on the other hand has a stainless steel inner pot, and I just realized that it has an extra thick (clad?) bottom. Maybe that's why I didn't have any trouble yesterday making goat cheese using the yogurt setting? Not sure. But so far I have not had any problem cleaning the stainless steel IP inner pot, nor did I have any problem cleaning the Cuisinart non-stick pot. Anyhow, to each their own and I'm glad that everyone is jumping on the PC bandwagon because I've been using PCs for decades (starting with an old Presto jiggly-top aluminum model) and I just love them! Now as far as this IP is concerned, maybe I'm still in the infatuation stage but so far I've found absolutely nothing to complain about (now that it was explained to me how to attach the lid by a kind eGulleter upthread).
PS Dang @Shelby your cheesecakes are killing me over here! Maybe I'll make one and give it to my SIL so I won't be tempted into unhealthy late-night snacking.
