Any hints on how to get beans to cook evenly? I soak beans overnight and follow the instruction, but some beans are overdone and others are undercook

Respectfully, any time I've ever had problems over the decades with beans not cooking evenly it was invariably due to a batch of mixed old AND new beans. This happens more than you might think, and unfortunately a recent purchase of mine of small red beans in 25 lb. bulk are proving to be exactly that. Soaking an extra couple of hours seems to help a little (10 hours instead of 8) and then bringing to full heat and pressure a little more slowly, then pressure cooking one extra minute than you normally would. All those things together will help when old and new beans have been mixed together.

Can someone please confirm that this pressure cooker is induction stove compatible by seeing if a magnet will stick to the bottom? Thanks.

All of our current stainless steel pressure cookers are compatible with an induction top range. If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Department via phone at 1-800-877-0441 or e-mail us at contact1@gopresto.com. We are open M-F 8-4:15 CT.

Could canning be done in this if so how many jars and what size?

There was a time when canning using pressure cookers was deemed a safe method of preserving. However, since 2006 Presto has not provided information for canning in pressure cookers. The information used to support canning in pressure cookers was based on research done in the late 1970's. The current recommendation from the United States Department of Agriculture indicates that to pressure can you will need to use a vessel that is specially a pressure canner, which holds at minimum four quart-size jars. Note that pressure canners are generally 12-quart size or larger. If you have any questions, you are able to contact our Customer Service Department by phone at 1-800-877-0441 or e-mail at contact1@gopresto.com. We are open M-F 8-4:15 CT.

I am not 100% sure, but I think they are made in Wisconsin, USA. Hope this helps. Suz
