Breville Fast Slow Pro BPR700 Questions & Answers (page 4 of 5)

When I put my Breville fast slow pro on pressure, it built up the pressure then stopped, the screen said the lid was not sealed. I know the lid was on properly so what should I do please? Thank you.

How to fix error E0?

when you lift the lid of the pressure cooker and it hinges up does liquid drip back into the bowl? For example if I was making a cake in there I wouldn't want any liquid dripping back onto it. Thanks.

I am trying to decide between the 650 and 700 models. Are there any real differences?

This product is listed under California's Proposition 65. Can Breville answer why? I really like this units features but want to avoid Toxins in my food. Is there a Stainless Steel Inner available for this pot?

I have just purchased the breville fast slow pro but haven't used it yet. I am concerned about the cooking time for things like curries and casseroles. It says it takes an hour? Is this the case? Other pressure cookers take 24 minutes.

Hi there,
I've just bought mine, used it 3 times but I'm struggling to get my pot clean - no food residue but smell wise. I've washed it so many times, even put it through the diswasher but it stinks! The food doesn't have an after taste but once I've washed it, its like the smell still sticks. Does anyone else have the same problem or know how to get rid of the smell?

I just purchased this and tried the BBQ beans recipe in the book. After 15 mins to preheat, 25 mins cooking and fast release steam the beans were nowhere near cooked????? Recipe book said 25 mins cooking time.

Also the valve is ever so slightly releasing steam throughput the whole process. But the machine says it's still at high pressure. Is this normal? My tefal doesn't do this. It every so often spurts steam out in one fast spurt to maintain its pressure.

Does anyone know if the valve should be noisy and releasing all the way through???

Thanks

Dear Breville, can I saute veges/spices etc with lid open? Thank you

How long should it take for the pressure cooker setting to heat up? I only got mine today, seems to take a while to get the process started - is there a way to make it quicker

Hi, pressure cooker function seem to 'stick' on pre heating on screen, but seems to be cooking. Is this normal?

Hi I just bought one of these Fast slow cooker pro yesterday from Briscoes, mine is a 650 not 700. Is this one OK as it seems only the 200 or 700 is mentioned here and the 200 was recalled. After reading all the problems with this cooker, I am hoping all goes well with my one

How do you change settings during cooking process? For example, if I am using the sear function and then want to switch to the pressure cooking function, do I have to hit Stop/Cancel to change the setting? Is there a way to change the function during the cooking process without hitting Stop/Cancel?

I used it for the first time tonight for bone broth, it cooked it well, but what a mess with all the steam and froth coming out of release valve, I placed the cooker under the exhaust fan in the kitchen and everything was dripping all over the place.
I can't use it and then have to wash all my range hood grills
I checked the instruction book and it states auto quick,auto pulse,natural
I pressed steam release thinking it would show on the screen which one to chose but it did not
When it stopped cooking the mess was unbelievable
How do I select one of these?

I think my silicone seal is too loose which can lead to the lid not sealing properly if i am not super careful to ensure it is sitting correctly. Can i get a replacement seal from Breville which may fit better?

First off I am from America, and for some reason, even after I deleted cookies, it won't let me go to the North American version of the site.

We could not get the lid to seal if the pressure pop up thing was directly in the middle. After trying 4 times and waiting forever to be told the lid was not sealing (popup centered), my older sister had a go. She noted that while turning the lid as many times as we did that it would ding once, then multiple dings the further you turned the lid. She stopped turning the lid as soon as the first ding happened. I checked the centering of the popup, and it appeared to be 2-3 mm off center, so I was concerned the popup could not popup. Unit sealed and popup had room. Are we off base here? Does one ding mean we hit the spot, and 3 that the lid is turned too far?

If we can keep it sealing properly using this method (on the first try), should we still consider calling customer service (in the US of course) for a replacement?

Thank you very much.

Can the lid be removed from the Breville fast slow? Or is it stuck/joined to the side of the pressure cooker?

Does anyone know of a brand that does stainless steel inner bowl pressure cookers? Rather than bad Teflon?

What is the difference between sear, saute, and reduce? I read somewhere that hi on reduce is equivalent to low on saute. Is that true? Where does sear fit in?

What is the difference between the BPR700 and the BPR700BSS?
