How to use the health pot

The concept of health preservation and nourishment is increasingly valued by people in modern families. Therefore, health-preserving kettles are also favored and loved by people, because health-preserving kettles can not only stew tonics, but also be used to make coffee, prepare medicinal food, and make soup for health preservation. However, how to use a health-preserving kettle and how to choose a good quality one also require skills. Today we will introduce it to you.

How to use the health pot and safety precautions

When using for the first time, please pour clean water into the kettle body first. The water level must be about 0.5 cm higher than the heating element at the bottom of the kettle body. Then turn on the power. If the model has a fast or slow gear function, please set it to the fast gear. At this time, the electric medicine kettle will automatically heat to boiling until the water is evaporated to below the heating element. It will automatically stop heating, stop keeping warm, and sound a reminder (green light). The test is completed and the machine can work normally.

When decocting Chinese medicine, there is an automatic control function. When there is no one watching, the cooking will stop automatically after the medicine is decocted. At this time, the red light is on, but the medicine juice is retained in the pot and can be poured out and drunk at any time.

When decocting or stewing, before adding soup ingredients or pouring medicinal juice, be sure to unplug the power supply first to ensure safety. It is strictly forbidden to operate with power on.

When using a health kettle, according to the principle of the machine, the water level must be higher than the heating element and not exceed 70% of the height of the kettle body (to prevent overflow due to excessive water). Generally, when the moisture content of household medicinal materials is lower than the heating element, pour out about 1 bowl of water (it varies depending on the density and consistency of different medicinal residues). This is the most common one. Generally, adults use about 200-300 grams of herbs. The more water you put in, the longer it will take to boil the medicine. The boiled medicine will be very concentrated and the effect will be very good. The normal time for boiling medicine is 1-2 hours at the fast setting and 3-6 hours at the slow setting. Under normal circumstances, please use the fast setting and the machine will work automatically. For medicines that require slow boiling, please use slow boiling (usually rare).

If you want to cook porridge, it is recommended to choose the "soup" function. Do not add too much water when cooking porridge. If the porridge is very thick, you need to supervise and stir the bottom of the pot manually to avoid sticking to the pot. Except for pressure cookers, no kitchenware can avoid overflowing, and the Royalstar health-preserving kettle is no exception. During the heating process, bubbles will be produced when the soup in the food boils. If the bubbles continue to expand without bursting, they will overflow. If you don't want to prevent overflow, you can add a small amount of cooking oil in the kettle to avoid bubbles in the soup. Before eating, you can scoop up the oil droplets floating on the surface, which will not affect the taste of the food.

The health kettle has the functions of cooking porridge, decocting medicine, scented tea, and stewing soup. In order to be compatible with all functions and convenient for daily use, it is set with an independent glass cover, which makes cooking healthier. Because it is a glass product, it cannot meet the requirements of tight closure, so it is recommended to remove the cover or press the cover to pour water when pouring water.

After the medicine pot is put into decocting medicine, when the water level in the pot is lower than the heating element and the temperature of the top panel of the heating element rises to 125°-130°, the medicine pot will automatically switch from the heating state to the heat preservation state, and the heat preservation light will light up! It means the decoction is finished. If you don’t need to keep the medicine warm, you can cut off the power supply and pour out the medicine! Generally, it takes about 1-2 hours to decoct a dose of Chinese medicine, and the decoction time is mainly determined by the amount of water added! Less water means shorter time, more water means longer time!

After use, clean the pot. Be sure to use a soft cloth when cleaning and do not scrape it hard to avoid damaging the non-stick coating.

That’s all the methods of using the health-preserving kettle that I introduced to you today. I hope you can pay attention to it in your daily life. When choosing, you must pay attention to the manufacturer and brand, and never choose products without any quality assurance. To prevent problems from occurring during daily use and hurting yourself. If you have any questions, you can also ask professionals for advice.
