Why your Instant Pot may not pressure well - How to Clean the vents

Wondering why your Instant Pot take a longer time to pressurize or it just doesn’t seem to work like when you first got your Instant Pot? This video is how to take apart, clean, & reassemble your Instant Pot cover so your vents function like new!
I have a 8 quart (I said 6 qt in video but they function the same) and 3 quart Instant Pots and use one or both daily! They're great for cooking rice, steaming potatos, making stews, and prepping my pup's homemade food!
You can buy a 3 quart at this Amazon link: amzn.to/2O30q9t
The 8 quart Instant Pot is at this link: amzn.to/2Q8ED2W

Your tutorial is just what I needed today! Thank you for sharing these cleaning tips. I was doing a natural release and it was taking forever. So I turned the pot off and waited a while. Still the button remained up and I couldn't open the lid. So I took the end of the spoon and touched the button gently. Down it went! So I knew there was something clogging up the vents. Your cleaning tips saved the day and now everything is working smoothly again.
