Test if your pressure cooker is working! * 1
    #1109176 -

A simple test to test if your pressure cooker is working properly:

Let a drop of water drop on the pressure cooker while sterilizing.
If the drop boils like underneath, the temperature is around 250?F(120?C) and the pressure cooker is working properly.

How can you not hear the PC boiling???
It`s pretty difficult unless you`re deaf.
Despite the fact that steam is released and the rocker weight jitters for an hour.

I don't get it.

What do you mean by "If the drop boils like underneath"?

A operating pressure cooker is hot.
Quite hot to be honest.

It?s hotter than the boiling point of water at 1 atmosphere(212?F=100?C)
If the pressure cooker is of a "standard" kind, it will be 250?F=121?C hot.


Now, if you put a small amount of water(=a drop) onto the surface of the lid of the pressure cooker(while the pressure cooker is under pressure), the drop of water will begin to boil vigorously and will have evaporated in 2-3 seconds, since the surface of the pressure cooker is so much hotter than the boiling point of water at the atmospheric pressure.

If the pressure cooker doesn?t work, if the pressure doesn?t build up properly, the pressure cooker temperature will be the same as the boiling point of water at atmospheric pressure or only slightly above.
If you were to drop a drop of water on such a cooker, the drop would only sit there and slowly evaporate over the course of a minute or so.

I tested my cooker and the drops boil and evaporate in about 10 seconds. I guess this one isn't 120*C but somewhere between 100 and 120. Probably because it's an old one. Hot enough I hope...

Not that I would know of.

Just people searching and not entering a timeline for how far back they want the search engine to search...either that or not paying attention to the last post in the thread and the date/year.

cool.  good to know how to test it!

about bumping old threads, i never understood why it is so frowned upon (ive been on other boards as well, it seems to be the way of most of them) often the topic is laid out very well on old threads, often by people who i dont see posting these days. we wouldnt want thier wisdom to be lost among a thousand other threads. many threads degenerate into flame wars and bullshit sessions, and some contain very little useable or even relevent info.

*lol! this doesnt have anything to do with testing a cooker, i suppose.

Agreed, Over the past few days there have been a few different posts about
dangerous PC explosions and mishaps. If anyone can glean even the smallest
amount of PC safety and the general understanding of how they work, then it's worth a bump or two.


I can't imagine the sound and the shear force of an AA lid blowing off...:whoah: :eek:
