Thanks Barry! The Fagor LUX LCD is a great pressure cooker. All my recipes are created using a 6 quart pressure cooker. If a recipe doesn’t have much liquid in the recipe, you may have to add additional liquid and sauce ingredients to get the same flavor. I aim for 1 cup of liquid in the 6 quart, you’ll probably want to be about 1 1/2 cups in the 8 quart just to be caution. If a recipe uses ingredients that releases a lot of liquid as it cooks, you may be able to use less – pork shoulder and chicken for example.

Awesome web site. Awesome recipes. Well done. Question (not sure you have time for questions) I have an 8 qt Fagor LUX LCD and it seems most recipes (everywhere) are designed for 6 qt pressure cookers. Do I need add more water for an 8 qt pot vs a 6 qt pot? If so, won’t that change the amount of the other ingredients?

Thanks so much for posting this Barbara! Ordered in Canada! I love my 6 qt and wanted to add the 8 qt for large batch cooking of soups and corn on the cob. This size should do me well 🙂

In reply to Mary. Great idea to keep two rings. I imagine you can get a lot of peppers in the 8 quart. Have fun!

Thanks so much for the heads up, Barbara. I just grabbed one….that’s going to make life SO much easier when I’m cooking 2 corned beef at once. Even making a bigger pot of stock (like at Thanksgiving when we have a big turkey)-this will give me plenty of room and I won’t have to worry about the pot being too full. I’m a happy person right now. 🙂

I must have been asleep at the wheel because I paid much more than that for my 8 qt. Woke up this morning thinking about how many stuffed peppers I could pack in there. lol I also bought two rings for the pot; one black and one clear. Easier to remember which one is the savory ring. Mary

Thank you so much for letting me know about this great deal! I’ve been wanting to add an 8 qt to complement my 6 qt for awhile now for bigger batches of soups, etc. Thanks again.
