Pros & Cons
Pros
Kuhn rikon 5l is a slicker design than my earlier pcs. Black beans are tastier if not soaked, or if soaked, cooked in the soaking water with the aromatics. About a half hour to make a beef stew, including prep.
Kuhn rikon is the gold standard. Works flawlessly, easy cleanup. The stainless steel is really heavy and super nicely polished. The quality of workmanship is second to none and the ease of cleaning is a breeze.
The exhaust valve on this model is beautiful and also extremely sturdy. Everything works flawlessly and the two sizes are very versatile. The quality is best.
Cons
It's not easy to remove the foam of the meat when making a broth. It's rather difficult because the materiel inside the pot is probably not well polished and there are pores.
