Kuhn Rikon 5.3Q Family Braiser

Kuhn Rikon 5.3Q Family Braiser

Quiet, super-safe, extremely attractive, and "everyday practical"... If you don't associate those words with pressure cookers, it can only be because you haven't experienced Kuhn Rikon Duromatic... and you're in for a big treat!

This family-style Kuhn Rikon Duromatic pressure cooker model has extra wide 11" base and waffle bottom for stainless stick resistance. Great for braising large quantities of meats, cooking stews, grains, rice & beans. Dinner for 6 to 8 with this professional model pressure cooker. Kuhn Rikon Model #30330.

Quiet, super-safe, extremely attractive, and "everyday practical"... If you don't associate those words with pressure cookers, it can only be because you haven't experienced Kuhn Rikon Duromatic... and you're in for a big treat!

null Cooking with a Kuhn Rikon Duromatic pressure cooker reduces cooking times (and energy costs!) by two thirds. It makes tough foods tender, and enhances flavor blending for tastier dishes. Kuhn Rikon Duromatic also preserves the vivid colors of your vegetables—as well as more of their nutrients. But in the past, pressure cookers have been big, noisy monstrosities... and more than a little scary!

Crafted in Switzerland of 18-10 Surgical Stainless with the attention to detail for which the Swiss are world renowned, Kuhn Rikon Duromatic Cookware will revolutionize your perceptions of pressure cooking. With super quiet valves, clad construction, and 5 unique (and truly effective) safety systems, Kuhn Rikon Duromatic pressure cookware is changing the way cooking is done. See the image below for what these five safety features are!

The Kuhn Rikon Duromatic line features fry pans that pressure cook and braise, with innovative stick resistant stainless surfaces, and interchangeable glass lids. Every Kuhn Rikon Duromatic pressure cooker base features a thick layer of pure aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel for even browning and fast warm up.

Versatile Kuhn Rikon Duromatic pressure cookers are sized for any task, from singles and small families to the professional cook. And Kuhn Rikon Duromatic pressure cookers work on all cooking surfaces, including induction cooktops.

See Kuhn Rikon Duromatic Pressure Cooker FAQ.

Gaskets should be replaced periodically, as they will harden over time and stop working — which will cause seal loss, and your cooker won't work. It's easiest to order a with your cooker, so you'll have a backup. (They can also be nicked or damaged by a stove burner, etc.) Tip: When not in use, gaskets can be removed from cooker lid to maintain proper shape for longest life.

Can you use a Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker for canning? The answer is here!

With any pressure cooker, be sure to add sufficient water. Complete evaporation will spoil your food and damage the cooker. If you want, you can keep food suspended above the water by using a trivet.

Simple design, easy to clean, safe to use, and with a large capacity for copious leafy greens like kale. Essential for a family and practical for couples who entertain and have dinner guests.

Carlton L., CA

The Family Cooker is an extremely well-made and sturdy pot. I've cooked racks of ribs, and seen beans cooked in it. My friend canned in hers with no trouble whatsoever. It's got to be my favorite pot. I highly recommend it.

Rachel J, MS

I've never cooked with such a quality item in my life. Everything I've made has come out perfectly. I highly recommend this 12 qt cooker, it's worth every penny. Be sure to purchase it from Pleasant Hill Grain. Their customer service is the best!

The "Rolls-Royce" of pressure cookers

By Greg F on 2/25/2023 Verified Buyer

While we also have the larger Kuhn Rikon, (double the size of this one,) as well. Welove them both. I'd have to say that this one is the one we usually grab, unless we'll be cooking for a whole lot of people. This unit is perfect for a couple, but will easily accommodate enough food to feed four people as well. If you're thinking of buying a real quality stainless steel pressure cooker, (not one of those commonly sold everywhere cheap junk stamped aluminum ones,) and you're only feeding 2-4 people, this would be my recommendation. If you have more mouths to feed, I'd buy the "big brother" model, (which we also have as well.)

Cooking under pressure

By John B. in CO on 4/30/2020 Verified Buyer

Kuhn Rikon is the best performing and best looking pressure cooker out there--excellent.
