Selecting the Soup Function: Once the ingredients are in the pot, secure the lid and ensure the steam release valve is set to the sealing position. Press the Soup button on the control panel. The Instant Pot will then begin the cooking process.

Instant Pot SOUP Setting (SOUP/BROTH BUTTON) The default Instant Pot soup setting is pre-programmed to set the pot to cook at HIGH pressure for 30 minutes. The soup program brings the contents of the pot to a slow simmer and results in a clear broth due to lack of boiling motion.

Maximum When pressure cooking, do not fill the inner pot higher than the PC MAX — 2/3 line as indicated on the inner pot. When cooking foods that expand (e.g., rice, beans, pasta) do not fill the inner pot higher than the — 1/2 line as indicated on the inner pot.

SOLUTION: Open the Instant Pot and make sure there's enough liquid. If too much liquid has evaporated, the Instant Pot won't pressurize, so add more liquid if necessary.

It's absolutely possible to overcook Instant Pot bone broth.

Use an automatic natural release (NPR) for soups, chilis, and oatmeals to let the pressure slowly release for up to 40 minutes. Opt for a manual quick release (QR) that takes 1 to 5 minutes if you want to avoid over-cooking delicate foods like fish, green beans, or pasta.

Can you leave bone broth in Instant Pot overnight? Yes. After it has cooked, set it on warm for 10 hours. I will frequently let it go during the day, and then when it's done cooking set it to warm for 10 hours when I don't want to deal with it at the moment.

Your Instant Pot needs liquid to work. If there's not enough, your pot won't be able to create enough steam to build pressure. About 1 cup is the minimum amount of liquid, so if you're cooking a recipe that will absorb water, like rice or beans, you'll need even more.

Commercial instant soups are manufactured in several types. Some consist of a packet of dry soup stock. These do not contain water, and are prepared by adding water and then heating the product for a short time, or by adding hot water directly to the dry soup mix.
