How to Clean the Instant Pot Sealing Ring – Simple Way!!!!
How to get rid of the funky smell off the Instant Pot Sealing or Silicone ring??? In this video, I’m sharing the most effective, the best and the cheapest way to clean …
This is what you do: put in 2 cups white vinegar , 1/2 lemon , put the lid on , use the steam function for 2 min : VIOLA! The gasket will now have gotten clean in the process and will no longer smell … that is ABSOLUTELY everything you need to know.. don't bother watching the video this dingbat talks endlessly
Just watched. You did an excellent job. Thank you. Just one question… does it matter which side you put the seal back in??? Thanks again, it’s people like you that makes learning easy.
you can buy replacement rings on amazon. they come in colors. I use a certain color for meat, beans, stew, stuffed bell peppers etc. I do use this method though with them.
This is a great suggestion. -running a cooking cycle with a lemon and vinegar. I will try this. It's interesting that the instant pot manual claims that you can wash the pot lid in the dishwasher. I tried this (although on the top rack of the dishwasher). The pot lid was ok BUT the silicone ring did retain the smell of the last item that we had cooked.
Is this every time you do after cooking. It is totally waste time because of this smelly sealing ring and the instant pot not worth it even is faster but it makes very worst in kitchen.

How many times you told "funky smell" lol
Your whistle is called a vent release valve.
The entire lid can go into the dishwasher safely, the unit CANNOT.
Look on Instant Pot site.
i thought that using 2 cups would be excessive for a steam process so i used alot less and my ring still smells so using 2 cups must be important

Love, love love my IP but that funky smelly ring drives me crazy even after washing in soapy water. Will definitely try your method. Thank you.
