designed and built before
AldiAmbiano9In1ProgrammablePressureCooker2019
the 9in1 is bigger 8Qt v 6Qt,
stainless steel pot,
controls on the main trunk
similar to a badge on bikes
wrapping around the tube in the middle
other models found quickly searhing
Aldi.US website warranty/ manuals are:
6 in 1
but electric,
not Crofton Pressure Cooker pot
(not electric heating elements, stovetop heating,
regular pot, but pressure)
which has some injuries, and other
problems published by others elsewhere.
This one has the controls on a big protruding
bottom which faces up, angularly
The Electric Pressure Cooker has
Red LED controls
and Six buttons with
Mode
PreSets
+ Plus
Display
with lights around the 4x 8? segmented displays
- Minus
Keep Warm
Start/Stop
This is a light aluminum?
Teflon like dark inside nonstick
aluminum silvery shiny outside pot
with curled top edge
imprinted Fifths (2/5 3/5 4/5 and
Cups / Quart? measuring scale
(litres too?)
alone one side
and rather dark to see,
similar to my BlackAndDeckerRiceCooker2019
yet to be written up,
but the oldest of my purchases
of these type devices
electric cooking things for food,
and before
BlackAndDeckerBreadMaker2019
picked up fairly recently at a thrift store...
Body
Original Text
As a tool/ method,
what it works on,
helps create are important too.
Starting with
Hard Boiled Eggs
Trying Six medium eggs
but wondering how much water,
using the steaming rack
so water fill to under that,
warm/cold filtered
and time a wonder too,
might have looked it up
ran it a couple times for
9 minutes or so,
there is a pressure regulator top
float thing that you turn to let out pressure
but careful not to burn yourself,
exhaust coming out away from you
and arrow and float all the way down,
weight of it may be a limiting factor,
possibly like a lid on the rice cooker
and some pots/ dutch Ovens2019
the seal also with water/ steam
but most have holes which would limit
but orient the vapour in a certain direction...
and a hole that when pressurized
prevents the lid from being
Getting the lid on is odd,
certain bent around parts
and matching with spaces on the
base, twisting goes further around
than i would think,
some arrows, and takes some practice
and probably better writing
(maybe read the instructions?
besides remembering to dishwash the pot
before first use, the legalese/ warnings
take the fun out of starting with a new device,
for me, i'm sure they are similar to the 9in1
and i read those a long time ago...)
No on button, switch display lights
red 4x Zeros when plugged in,
beeping starts each button press,
annoyingly
The display is weird,
as it animates
like the left two numbers to graphically
show something like boiling / steaming pot,
but not knowing, nor seeing,
in the manual, maybe a YouTube video
shows it in operation?
setting it is different,
Mode/Preset
based on food type
for n possibilities
then
+ Plus
- Minus
from the default for that
seems to work to add time
to a certain limit for whatever preset/
and modes may or may not support that,
though I've only tried a couple/ three by now...
Oatmeal
Regular not quick
Afterwards, the lid wasn't very clean
and I've not run the top thru the dishwasher
the 9in1
i might have taken it apart a bit,
and there are cleaning type instructions,
a silicone seal
(need to get a spare
times a running out,
supplies are limited
and since the model is
not on the Aldi.US website,
even with a QRCode to scan
for video on the paper manual,
which goes nowhere but a top
level world view and selecting US
doesn't help, so video pulled,
and i guess aged/ unsupported
but sold, warranty, etc may still be
good and finally have one...
though not the same and reusing the pot,
1000 Watts, only,
others are bigger and more volume,
so not linear i guess Watts
to Volume of pot (in quarts?
and/or metric?)
for even finding a manual
2016-7 range date, i'd have to look,
fact check, but need to remember to
mention
Dried Black Beans
One of the main reasons for trying pressure
cooking, besides geeky curiosity and hungry
which is a kinda spin off of
MetaBreadBooks2019
and
MungedMetaData2017
trying those now
guessing preset/mode
a Tenderize/Beans
combined preset
selecting that gives a P40
(Pressurized50 Mins?) time,
so bumped it up to 60 minutes
(the max for that preset)
and seeing what happens,
first time out, but early am
and may be going elsewhere
for a bit today, so trying to get
it done before going for the day,
i ended up eating the beans,
seemed softer than what i'd accomplished
previously with
Ambiano6Qt4In1MultiCooker2019
regular pots, and a small fraction of the time,
no presoaking/ quick soaking the beans either,
and no rinsing/ refreshing/flushing the water
Beeping/ on button presses,
while setting is annoying,
will see what alarm type stuff it uses to say it's
finished, don't recall it at all,
just clicking of solenoids,
relays type high power
and some giggling steam
type thing to get just warm enough
for steam...
likely temp ranges vary with pressure,
but that conversion, equations,
knowledge is to be built up,
if i can...
4x Upside down 6's when done
and goes in to Keep Warm mode
not sure the maximum time,
i think it's still cooking some,
and wonder ramp up and
cool off time factoring into how
long stuff takes, kinda like
preheating and prep
time, bake then cooling,
giving a more honest time frame,
instead of the just at full pressure
time(s)...
More to learn,
try reading the manual,
there were a few recipes,
not much that i cared for,
and have checked out a lot
of InstantPot type pressure cooking
books from the library, many specialized
GlutenFree,
Vegan,
Autism,
etc
so will see what recipes i can find
and add to MetaBreadBooks2019
links for finding interesting,
then what i have/ can easily get ingredients,
modifications to taste, and results
on trying them...
Insert somewhre above?
Chronologically?
Beans liquid poured out
near the end could not spoon out well,
so say last small bowl of beans
hidden in liquid,
spooning unproductive
and keep the liquid?
seemed dark like coffee,
but not slimey like residue left in cans
or slow cooker
so different byproducts
when pressurized cooking
v low temp, no pressure cooking?
Compare contrast refineries?
Modified Text
What's Missing?
electronic manual pdf from Aldi.US website
one Ambiano electric about that time
seems to go to Crofton manual instead,...
Previous to that, chronologically
says Crofton,and links duplicated?
one repeated, by mistake?
Maybe Ambiano's first release?
Got an original?
Antique?
(for some time systems, electronics
faster than 100 years like for furniture,
books, etc)
What Can Be Found?
finally have a pressure cooker
that does more than 2 minutes
of preheating and abort with an Error 1,
so will see what happens...
What Can Not Be Found?
supplies like seal?
is it the same size as name brands
like InstantPot?
and where/ how much, how long
does it take to get one/a couple,
possibly saving shipping
How To Analyze?
Lenses
Noob
Very cheap entry price,
older technology, small cooker,
but a base to start from,
and smaller batches means
less waste and shorter cooking times?
(Despite 1000 Watt limit...?)
others are 1200 Watt...
Experienced
Probably got the wrong pot,
and have no clue as how to cook,
so good luck...
/SnobbishlyLiftsNoseInAir
GlutenFree
Wheat, is there anything else,
it seems in the Wheat dominated market,
but corn,
rice,
potato,
etc...
Vegetarian
Vegan
Garbage in/
Garbage out?
DisAbled
Not getting burned when tired,
etc
Cognitively (sp a->i),
better instructions
specific for disabilities
reading, DysLexia,
Scientific theory to hold the
countless data...
Cooking, absorbtion rates,
saturating,
with pressure, without
why, why not?
Young
High pressure and temps mean
dangerous for most,
so parental supervision,
likely just on site, probably needed,
not my decision, it's a parent/ guardians..
Poor
At $20 leftover/oddity find
the low end has a new
low price? besides the few
9in1s that were gone before
i got a chance for a working one...
Assumptions
Cooking with is better than without,
at least for me...
Some learning and experimenting
to be done, try my regular stuff,
Oatmeal
Rice
Beans
and stuff i know something of in regular
and/or MultiCooker first?
and see what else to try,
chicken?
baking bread?
didn't see any yogurt nor caning modes
like on the 9in1,
so bummed about that,
one thing i was hoping to try...
Time Limits
Number of running/ miles/ hours/
wash cycles
likely wear out seals
interest level,
seasonal as hot out,
and making more heat
in the cooker, but like
FixItAndForgetItBakingWithYourSlowCookerByPhyllisGood2019
separating from the main heat,
and likely less than a regular oven,
controlled
and stops itself,
kinda like a deadman's switch
for a train/ engineer/ driver dies
it brakes /stops automatically,
and
forgetful and cooking would usually mean
burning a lot of stuff, mostly food,
sometimes pot, and worst the residence,
but precautions taken, try while watching,
try while on site, say start and sleep
and x,y,z
Oven timer countdown set
if stepping out say for more water...
Less than 5-10 minutes
Like a slow cooker designed
to Set It and Forget It,
and run by its self...
Check LegalSleeze on it,
as not an apartment provided
appliance, so not their liability
and if a return/ defective, etc
They had slow cooker class(es)
and gave away those,
but brand and other GotCha$...

Conclusion
Summary of experience or similar
Good so far,
annoying about the pot compatibility,
different sizes and since other pot is
bigger, and not fit in this,
smaller to larger base unit,
but that base doesn't work,
for more than about 2 minutes preheating...
Learning modes/ times and settings
will be a while, but luckily had
already gotten out some books
on InstantPots and a couple
generic MultiCooker and other
stuff in titles, mostly not bread,
but might have some in there
somewhere, will have to look/
search for, later on...
Tofu burgers
and other interesting things
Boston Baked Beans
some other goodies
that i'm still rather hungry
after the whole beans package,
but added light Corn Syrup
and took a nap,
so will have to dishwash run
3 hours plus and more other things
to do, and get back to it...
Typed into HammodPage instead
Finally got something,
and learning about it,
with simple stuff,
first...
Eggs because have just that
and water...
Less cleanup/ mess,
complicated...
Discussion
A place for feedback on the page presented
What things do you like about cooking?
What recipes do you think might work on / in
one of these?
What limitations are there in using specialty
devices for cooking?
What of those who don't have the device?
Is it like i was for months trying to wait
to find one, searching in vain,
and then something, not exactly what i wanted,
but close enough/ satisficing?
Or only to be disappointed?
