I did not pre-soak the beans, The ham bone was much bigger than I thought it was, I did 2 cups of great northern beans with 1 medium onion and 8 cups water with 2 Tbs Olive oil , and set the cooker to 30 minutes, which was not enough. Long story, This is a guessing game for me. ( I would try 45 minutes ) and let the pressure go down slow. It depends on what you put in it as to where to set it I think. But if you get it right it will be damn good!
( note ) this is a 8 qt. cooker ( not a 6 qt. cooker ) Size matters!! I see a lot of learning with this thing.
