Has anybody tested both in parallel and did form an opinion between a stovetop pressure cooker and an instant pot?
Mainly I want to cook beans, since I fell in love with the book 'Cool Beans'.
I am currious about the set it and forget it nature of the Instant pot. I have a rice cooker and therefore am very open about this concept.
However, I am concerned, that the effort it takes to clean the device nullifies the advantages of this advantage.
Also I know that a classic stovetop pressure cooker gives me some more flexibility for legumes with a stovetop device as I can reduce pressure quickly by cooling down the pot under running water.
I am wondering though if this flexibility is required in practice.
Currently I have a WMF Perfect Pro Stovetop Pressure Cooker.
Cleaning is as easy as it gets with this pressure cooker. You can simply remove the handle with all the valves by pulling back one spring. The handle gets cleaned under running water, the lid without the sealing ring goes into the dish washer.
