Outstanding video and the best overview with examples that I've seen. Had I not already been sitting here awaiting my Amazon delivery of this unit today, you would have convinced me to order it. My mouth is watering and I'm thinking about all the possible ingredients in my house right now! You more than earned my subscription and I look forward to your cookbook.

Yogurt can be made on sous vide function. Set time and temp. Just made 1/2 gallon two days ago. 1/2 gallon milk warmed to 115°. Add Yogurt starter packet. Stir. Set to 105-112° for 8 hours. Cool for two hours. Fridge for 6 hours. Separate into containers. I add fruit, granola etc when I eat it but premix fruit for my kids and put into reuseable squeeze pouches for their convenience to grab some in the early morning.

Was I ever so glad to see this most outstanding, positive, and inspiring video!! I'm a Vietnam Combat Veteran (flew B-52 D over Vietnam) with severe PTSD with related Depression/Anxiety issues. As a result of these things, I have lost everything; my family and my children. All I can do now is to try to survive. I bought my Instant Pot Duo-Air Crisp a couple of months ago. So far, I had only used it for its pressure cooking function, the simplest and easiest. This video showed me now how to "fill in the blanks" which I had been wondering about and wishing for. Now, if I can't do anything else good for myself, I will be able to feed myself to my heart's contentment!! What a blessing! Thank you so much Jeffrey, you have no idea what a difference you have made in my life. Thank you!

OMG young man! I’m so glad I found your video. I’m a 73 yr old grandmother and just bought my first Instant Pot which just happens to be the Duo Crisp + Air Fryer. Your video is informative and answered so many questions I had. Additionally it took the little bit of fear I had away. Thank you, thank you, thank you. My 6 yr old granddaughter loves Mac and cheese so I can’t wait to try your recipe with the crunchy topping, to surprise her.

This is by far the best tutorial on YouTube for this model!

Quick tip for people missing the yogurt button on this...you can use the dehydrate button for fermenting to achieve the same results and use the saute button to get to the right temp to "boil" the milk. Take the liner out to cool in ice bath before mixing in the starter, then dehydrate will be used as the "fermenting" time. I am just not sure how long you can set the dehydrating time...so you may have to set it twice if needing an 18-24 hour incubation

I’ve got to hand it to you. You are excellent at explaining things to an old person with dyslexia that doesn’t cook. It’s just way too hard to follow directions😂. I put it off for two months now and Ive got to tell you, your instructions really gave me confidence

[richardaileen]

Jeffrey; What do we see here? Oh my! I see Cookbook II, with receipe's for the Crisp and Air Fryer! When You publish it, I'll buy one! Who else would buy a copy? Go Jeffrey!

Hey loved the new gadget! Show us the dehydration function please

[jeanettealley]

Thank you SOOO Much!! This is my First Ever Instant Pot and you guided me to make sense of the whole thing! You also explain everything so succinctly that I feel like I Get It!! I'm not afraid or intimidated by it anymore. The relief is palpable!! Thank Thank Thank You!!

Great job on explaining never had one of this before in my life my husband got it for me really excited to start using it so simple thank you so much!

[kareinasalazar]

I just picked up this model yesterday and I appreciate the in-depth review and step-by-step how to tips! Thanks so much! I’m not a fan of Mac and cheese, but I have to say that recipe looks so good and simple enough for me to try out ☺️

Once again Jeff, great work. I bought two instant pot whisper quiet models for a great price for mom & dad and one for my family as gifts for Christmas 2022. Disappointed to learn that IP doesn't offer the air fryer lid for my model. My mom is still a bit timid about hers and hasn't used it as I'm on 20 meals in mine, mostly your recipes ! I'm going to give her mine, return hers and get the duo crisp. And darn it, I'm going to show her in person how easy this device is in person and cook their favorite dish. Mom is 75, dad 77. Set in their ways but so grateful to have them. Again, thanks for the great demonstrations !

[jenbear]

Thank you for demonstrating this! This is my first instant pot and when I saw the air frying addition, it only made sense to get this model for space saving. The instructions that came with it are pretty vague- probably assuming people have already had an instant pot before. I was wondering if I needed to put liquid in under the frying rack or not- so thanks for showing how to air fry! I’ve made a couple of things pressure cooking and wondered what the “L” meant at the end.
Very nice demonstration and I’ll definitely try the Mac & cheese you just demonstrated!

Instant Pot also came out with just a straight fryer as well. I saw it for $119 at Wal-Mart. However, love the idea of having it be able to do both. Best of both worlds. Getting the air fryer capability beats out the bells and whistles of the Evo. If you want to add the air fryer capability, for just $46 extra, you get two appliances in one with an 8 quart capacity. Seems like a no brainer if you're in the market. I still have the yogurt function on my 6 qt.

I’m so glad you showed the pressure cooking! I just got this bad boy delivered and I’ve never used an instant pot/air fryer EVER. this was on sale and I couldn’t pass up this duo. Can’t wait to use it! Great video.

[kimbeatty-kennedy]

I am addicted to both Jeffrey's videos AND my new Instant Pot!

[suzannewise]

I loved this tutorial. I got this for Christmas from my daughter. I unwrapped it and said, "Uh-oh!" "It's on now." lol

[eveastardust]

You clearly have talent and knowledge, I appreciate you sharing it! The duo crisp is also great for those of us who want to avoid a triple bypass, stint or statin meds, by using it to cook plant-based whole foods.

I just came across your youtube. I loved how simple and easy you described how to use the Instant pot duo. I have had it for 3 years and never used the air fryer attachment. I did it today and I was amazed. I made store bought frys and used the broiler, it came out great. I am going to use the instant pot more often now. Thank you for the video😃😃😃😃
