Sous-vide is perfect for slow cooking
Unfortunately, it is now known that the slow cooking program of the Instant Pot does not work very well and is actually very unclear. Because how hot does it actually get and why does it all take so long?
We strongly recommend the sous vide program for slow cooking and making yogurt with your Instant Pot.
The sous-vide program heats up quickly and becomes as hot as you set it to, accurate to 1°C.

Additionally, we strongly recommend a glass lid for slow cooking.
Every time you open the Instant Pot to check progress you loose a lot of heat (roughly half an hour of slow cooking time).
PS make sure you buy the right size lid! For Instant Pot Ultimate you need the 7,6L lid.
