Greenings, Green Warriors! Imagine setting a timer before bed and waking up to a pot of perfectly cooked beans in the morning. With an Instant Pot, it’s possible!
For optimal results when using the delay cook feature with beans, it’s advised to soak them first and fill the water up to the Max Fill Line before setting the cooking timer. Skipping this step could lead to uneven cooking as the beans may absorb water prematurely.
Scroll down for a step-by-step guide and timing chart.

Here’s a step-by-step sample guide:
- Morning: Place rinsed beans in the Instant Pot Liner.
- Fill with water to max fill line.
- Place Instant Pot Liner in the refrigerator and cover (you can use an Instant Pot Lid )
- Evening: Remove lid and drain the water (you can transfer everything into a colander).
- Refill the liner with soaked beans and fill with water up to the Max Fill Line.
- Place the water and bean-filled liner in the Instant Pot.
- Secure Instant Pot cooking lid onto the Instant Pot.
- Set the delay start timer to begin cooking at your desired time in the morning.
For additional guidance, refer to the cooking chart as soaked beans require less cooking time.
Using the delay cook feature with soaked beans ensures that your beans are ready to eat when you are. This method is particularly useful for busy individuals who want to come home to a hot, nutritious meal without spending much time in the kitchen after a long day.
- *Tips for Using the Delay Cook Feature:**
- **Timing is Key**: Be mindful of the total time the beans will sit in the water before cooking. Too long, and they might become overly soft or start fermenting.
- **Temperature Considerations**: If your kitchen is particularly warm, consider placing the Instant Pot liner with the beans and water in the refrigerator to prevent any potential bacteria growth.
- **Flavor Enhancements**: Add spices, herbs, or broth instead of plain water for a richer flavor. For instance, a bay leaf or a clove of garlic can infuse the beans with subtle, delicious notes.
- **Check Seals and Settings**: Make sure the sealing ring and valve are properly positioned to avoid any mishaps. Double-check your delay start settings to ensure everything is programmed correctly.
- **Post-Cooking Adjustments**: After the beans have cooked, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Sometimes a pinch of salt substitute or a splash of vinegar can elevate the dish.
