Frequently asked questions
How long do beans take in a pressure cooker?
Pre-soaked beans: 12–15 minutes at full pressure. Unsoaked: 25–30 minutes. Both faster than the 90+ minutes of open-pot cooking.
Are pressure cookers safe?
Modern pressure cookers have at least two independent safety valves and a locking lid that cannot be opened under pressure. The pressure cookers we stock are all CE/BSI tested.
Which pressure cooker is best for a Kenyan family of four?
A 5–6L pressure cooker covers most family meals. For larger households or anyone hosting regularly, step up to 8L.
Can I use a pressure cooker on a gas cooker?
Yes — every pressure cooker we sell works on gas. Match the pot diameter to the burner: a 22cm pot suits the standard family-size burner found on Tortoise, Mika, and Bruhm cookers.
