If you\u00a0purchased an Instant Pot Duo on Prime Day, you may be unaware of or confused by the\u00a0new features on the Instant Pot DUO Version 2. Here’s some additional information on the\u00a0new features of the Instant Pot Duo Version 2 that\u00a0will help.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Instant Pot DUO and LUX Version 2 were\u00a0released\u00a0in October, 2015.\u00a0Instant Pot continuing it’s tradition of great customer service added features to the Instant Pot that users have been requesting.<\/p>\n

In my opinion,\u00a0the biggest and best change in Version 2, is it\u00a0memorizes the cooking time you used last<\/strong>. (It also remembers whether you used low or high pressure and the temperature you used if you’re using one of the functions that let’s you change the temperature.)<\/p>\n

I make white rice<\/a> in my Instant Pot several times a week using the manual button and a 3 minute cook time. It was a little bit annoying to have to hold the \u201c-\u201c button while it counted down from 30 minutes to 3 minutes every time.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

Now the\u00a0new Version 2 DUO remembers I used a 3 minute cook time last time I used the manual button, and it starts at 3 minutes. It remembers the time even if I unplug the DUO.<\/p>\n

If however, you prefer to use the factory settings, all you have to do to reset to the factory default settings<\/strong>, is press and hold the \u201cAdjust\u201d button for 3 seconds. Just be sure your Instant Pot cooker is in the Off mode<\/strong> when you’re resetting it.<\/p>\n

\"You
\nAnother new features that people have been asking for is the ability to turn off the beeping<\/strong>. People were concerned\u00a0that the beeping might wake up their babies. So now you can turn off the beeps.<\/p>\n

\n

You turn the\u00a0beeping off by pressing and holding the \u201c-\u201c button for 3 seconds. The screen\u00a0will show\u00a0\u201cSOFF\u201d which represents\u00a0\u201cSound Off\u201d.<\/p>\n

To turn the beeping back On, press and hold the \u201c+\u201c button for 3 seconds. The\u00a0screen shows \u201cS ON\u201d which represents\u00a0\u201cSound On\u201d. (The\u00a0Updated Feature Information Sheet<\/a>\u00a0included with my Version 2 Duo incorrectly listed holding the “-” button instead of the “+”.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

If an error occurs while pressure cooking you will still be alerted even if you have turned the sound off.<\/p>\n

\"You<\/p>\n

There were changes made to the Slow Cook temperatures to more closely replicated the temperatures of conventional slow cookers. Slow Cook on the Normal mode is now 87.8~93\u00b0C\/190~200\u00b0F. \u00a0Slow cook on the\u00a0More mode is now 93~99\u00b0C\/200~210\u00b0F. Slow cook on the\u00a0Less mode is 82~87.8\u00b0C\/180~190\u00b0F.<\/p>\n

Changes were made so you can now turn off the Keep Warm function. To turn off the Keep Warm function\u00a0press the cooking program button twice BEFORE the cooking program starts<\/strong>. The light on the Keep Warm button will light up if the Keep Warm function is activated. The light will\u00a0turn off if the Keep Warm function is turned off.<\/p>\n

An example of when I\u00a0might want to turn off the Keep Warm function is when I’m cooking rice. Rice will stay warm a long time covered in the pressure cooking pot, but using the Keep Warm function for a long time, could dry out and potential even burn the bottom layer of rice.<\/p>\n

\"Instant<\/p>\n

Another change is Version 2 comes with a detachable cord. There have been mixed reviews about this. Some people are afraid of losing it, but personally I like not having to wind a cord around the Instant Pot when I store it. Now the cord\u00a0fits neatly inside the pot.<\/p>\n

The manual was not updated to include the new features. Instead a one page Updated Feature Information sheet was included. If you didn’t save the sheet, I’ve posted a copy below. You can also find the Updated Feature Information Sheet<\/a>\u00a0on\u00a0the Instant Pot website.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re unsure which model you have, the label on the back of the Instant Pot will tell you the model and list V2 or IP-DUO60-ENW, which is exactly the same as V2.<\/p>\n

Disclosure: I received an Instant Pot DUO Version 2 to review, but was not compensated for this post and all opinions expressed are always my own.<\/em><\/p>\n
