ABSTRACT:
A steam pressure cooker is provided with a normally open drain valve connected to the bottom of the cooker pressure vessel and having a relatively large flow capacity to drain liquids and food particles. A separate exhaust pipe of restricted capacity is also connected to the vessel and controlled by a separate valve. Steam is supplied to the pressure vessel through an inlet source, and with the drain valve closed the restricted exhaust pipe allows pressure to rise in the vessel since flow through the restricted pipe is less than the inlet flow. Controls are provided for closing the main drain valve and the restricted exhaust pipe separately, in sequence, and these controls include a manually operable device which can be used to open the restricted exhaust pipe to depressurize the vessel independently of the automatic control of the cooker.
