Instant Pot, resources, recipes and tips

I should send this in to IP customer service or somewhere else probably.

To me the #1 improvement - mainly to the Mini - would be to invert the height / width proportions for more “floor space.”

Most of the food burn or similar issues occur because the pot is taller than it is wide - solids get stuck at the bottom and have to be stirred occasionally.

It’s like using a stock pot for everything you’d otherwise use a saucepan or chefs pan for.

If they made the bottom wider (at least on one model) I might never need my other (non-CS/CI) pans again. Plenty of floor space to brown, add a bit of liquid, close and switch to PC mode. I already have that in my stovetop PCs, but the convenience of electric shut-off and the beep alerts are very useful additions.
