即时壶刚刚发布了一个新的模型!Here’s Why You Need It

For all the press and buzz that the Instant Pot gets, executives at the brand don’t toot their own horns nearly as much as they should. Case in point: The company quietly released a new model yesterday and we just happened to see it online. The new model is called theDuo Novaand, while there’s lots to say about it (which we’ll do in a bit below), there’s one extra-cool new feature that we’re excited about.

This new model has an Easy Seal Lid, whichautomatically sets to sealwhen you close it (with older versions, you had to this yourself and it was easy to forget!). No more wasting time because youcould have sworn you sealed itbut actually did not.

It also has an Easy Steam Release Button, which sits an inch or two away from the steam nozzle, that you can press to gently release the steam. (This keeps your fingers out of the way of the hot steam!) And it also releases the steam gently and diffuses it more than the other machines.

It’s like theDuo, in that it’s a 7-in-1 machine—it’s a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, and yogurt maker. Plus, you can set it to keep food warm for, say, someone who’s coming home late. And you can sauté in it (it actually has three different sauté settings). However, the Duo Nova has a fancier interface with a status bar to monitor your progress, a delay start button for easy breakfasts, and new easy-to-read icons.

现在,两人新星只能在6-quart option, but it will soon be released in the 3- and 8-quart size, as well.

This isn’t the first time the folks at Instant Pot did some covert product release: Just a few weeks ago, the company alsoquietly launched the Instant Pot DUOin three new colors (mint, white, and an orange-y red). If WE ran Instant Pot, we’d be up, shouting on a rooftop virtually every day!
