Possible Causes

Incorrect program selected, Faulty temperature or pressure sensor under-reading, Steam leak preventing full pressure, User opening lid too often in non-pressure modes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure food is safe to eat; if undercooked, continue cooking.

  • Verify program: Confirm you are using the correct Gourmia program and time for the food type.
  • Check for leaks: Inspect lid gasket and steam release valve for leaks that could prevent full pressure.
  • Sensor issues (advanced): If the unit consistently ends early, the sensor may be misreading. Test and replace the base temperature sensor or pressure sensor as needed.
  • Adjust cooking time: Increase the programmed time slightly to compensate while investigating hardware issues.
