MANUAL PRESSURE COOK MODE
Pressure Cooking is a method of cooking food in a small amount of liquid with a gasket sealed lid that retains steam inside and builds pressure. It is the increase in pressure that raises temperature of the liquid and steam inside to well above boiling point and therefore allows food to be cooked up to 70% faster. This means less energy is consumed and you will enjoy substantial savings in both time and cost. Because pressure cooked foods require very little cooking liquid, more vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are retained, and the natural flavors are enhanced.
1. To select the manual pressure, cook mode,
press and hold the PRESSURE COOK button for 2 seconds.
2. Adjust the cooking pressure by using the
PRESSURE/TEMPERATURE (+/-) buttons. Pressure can be adjusted from 1.5 psi (LOW) to 12 psi (HIGH).
3. The figure on the LED screen indicates the
preset cooking time for the selected setting. Adjust the cooking time by using the TIME (+ / -) buttons (next to the 4-digit display) to reduce the cooking time or increase the cooking time. Time can be adjusted up to 2 hours.
4. Press the STEAM RELEASE button to select

HANDS- FREE VARIABLE STEAM
RELEASE The Fast Slow GO™ features 3 steam release methods: Auto Quick Pressure is released quickly to minimize overcooking of food or recipes with short cook times. This is recommended only for food types that do not expand or foam when boiling. Pulse Pressure is released in bursts to reduce disturbance to the food inside. This is recommended for food types that generate small amount of foam or do not foam at all when boiling. Natural Pressure naturally subsides inside without releasing steam through the vent to prevent the churning up or breaking apart of sensitive ingredients like stocks and beans during pressure release. Natural pressure release mode is suitable for all types of food recipes. NOTE Some food type (e.g. legumes) that are known to generate excessive foam can only use 'Natu- ral' Pressure release to prevent food spillage. These can be selected using the STEAM RELEASE button on the control panel during the set up and STEAM RELEASE cycles. Once selected, the Pressure Release Valve will automatically release the steam at the end of the pressure cooking cycle. NOTE The steam or pressure release mode pro- grammed into each preset cooking modes are selected for best results. Any changes to the steam release mode may lead to food spillage. CAUTION Always keep hands and face clear of the pressure release valve when pressure cooking as hot steam and water may be emitted during operation.

REDUCE This preset has three levels: low, medium and high. The REDUCE function is ideal for thickening and intensifying the flavor of sauces, syrups and stocks. STEAM The STEAM setting is ideal for steaming food such as vegetables, fish fillets and dumplings. When steaming for more than 30 minutes, it is recommended to add 1 cup warm water into the cooking bowl at 30 minute increments to ensure consistent steaming performance. To reduce condensation forming on the outside surfaces of the lid and handle, it is recommended to remove the pressure release valve. WARNING If the lid will not unlock, this indicates the appliance is still under pressure. Do not force the lid open as any remaining pressure can be hazardous. Press and hold the STEAM RELEASE button to manually release steam (refer to page 15 for manual and variable steam release). SOUS VIDE The SOUS VIDE setting is ideal for cooking food to a very precise temperature in a water bath. What is Sous Vide? Sous Vide is a cooking technique that allows you to cook food to the doneness you desire by heating water to a set temperature. Food items are placed in a heat-proof, food safe plastic bag, that is submerged and cooked to your preferred19 doneness without the risk of drying out through over cooking. What do you need to cook food with the SOUS VIDE function? Thick, heat-proof, food safe plastic bags. Resealable zip-top bags will also work if the cooking temperature is under 158°F (70°C). Do I need to vacuum seal? You do not need to vacuum seal bags for SOUS VIDE, however, as much air as possible needs to be removed from the bag, and water prevented from entering the bag to provide accurate food results. To use the water displacement method, place food in a zip-top bag with a double seal, then lower the bagged food into a water filled container. Once most of the air is out of the bag, carefully seal just above the water line. Is the lid open or closed? To ensure consistent cooking temperatures, the lid must be closed and in the locked position during the sous vide function. When do I sear? You can sear items before or after cooking with the SAUTÉ/SEAR function. If searing prior to using the SOUS VIDE function, allow time for resting and cooling overnight in the refrigerator. SOUS VIDE steps:
1. Fill cooking bowl with warm water until it
has reached the MAX line. To reduce preheat time, start with water close to your target temperature.
2. Press SOUS VIDE and set temperature and
time as desired. Close lid and press START to begin heating water.
3. Place the food item or the produce in a
plastic Sous Vide or zip-top bag. If you do not have specific Sous Vide sealed bag, we recommend using a double-sealed zip-top bag. Add aromatics like bay leaves, rosemary, lemon slices or rind and oil as desired.
4. When water has reached desired
temperature (machine will beep once), carefully place bag into the water bath. If bag floats, place stainless trivet upside down over the bag to keep it fully submerged.
5. Close the lid and rotate to locked position,
but ensuring the pressure release valve is in the open position.
6. When cooking time is completed, remove
bag from water bath. Temperature and Time:
- EGGS – poached egg - 147°F (64°C) for 1 hour YOGURT How to use the yogurt shortcut auto program? Plain Yogurt Prep time: 10 minutes / Incubation: 5-8 hours (plus up to 1 hour 30 minutes cooling) 1 quart / 1 Liter whole, homogenized milk 2 tbsp plain yogurt with live and active cultures STEP 1 – Scald the Milk Place the cooking bowl in the Fast Slow GO. Add the milk. Close and lock the lid. Press YOGURT then press START. The milk will heat to 182°F (83°C) and hold at the temperature for 10 minutes. STEP 2 – Cool the Milk Open the lid and do not press any controls. The cooling phase will automatically cool the milk to 110°F (43°C). First the word ‘COOL’ will appear on the cooker screen. At the end of the cooling time the cooker will sound an alert when it has reached the correct temperature, about 1 hour 30 minutes.20 TIP Cooling the milk with the lid open will result in a skin forming on top. Removing this skin before adding the starter will help to ensure a smoother texture to the yogurt. STEP 3 – Incubate the Yogurt At the end of STEP 2, the word ‘ADD’ will appear in the cooker screen. Place the yogurt starter in a bowl. Add ½ cup of the cooled milk and whisk until smooth. Whisk the milk mixture into the cooled milk in the cooking bowl. Close and lock the lid press START to incubate for 5-8 hours. The longer it is incubated the tangier the yogurt will be. STEP 4 – Refrigerate When the cooker sounds an alert that the yogurt has finished incubating, remove the cooking bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold. Once the yogurt is completely cold, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. TIPS
- Using homogenized milk will produce a smoother yogurt. If your result is slightly lumpy and separated, whisk the cooled yogurt gently to combine.
- To cool scalded milk faster, place cooking bowl in a larger bowl of iced water, check the temperature with a thermometer. When the milk has reached 110°F (43°C), add ½ cup of the cooled milk to the yogurt starter, whisk until smooth, then whisk in the mixture and return the cooking bowl to the pressure cooker.
- To increase tanginess of the yogurt, increase the incubation time. KEEP WARM The KEEP WARM function maintains hot food at safe serving temperature of 140°F (60°C) or above for up to 6 hours at the end of a cooking cycle. If using the KEEP WARM function as a standalone, the feature can be run for up to 24 hours.

ALTITUDE ADJUST Pressure builds and increases when the temperature inside the cooking vessel exceeds boiling point. As altitude increases, the temperature at which water boils decreases as a result of the drop in air pressure. This creates very different conditions for cooking when using a pressure cooker. In order to maintain consistent cooking results at various altitudes, the Fast Slow GO™ has an Altitude Adjust feature that adjusts the settings based on the altitude of your current location.
