Editorial Policy
Our goal is to publish pressure‑cooking guidance that is accurate, safe, and reproducible—rooted in testing, not trends.
Accuracy & Sources
We fact‑check timing, safety, and equipment claims against primary sources such as manufacturer manuals and established food‑safety authorities. When evidence is mixed, we test, document assumptions, and note limitations.
Independence
Editorial decisions are separate from revenue. Brands do not preview, edit, or approve our content. Loaner units, if accepted, are disclosed and tested alongside retail units when possible.
Updates & Corrections
We date‑stamp articles, maintain change logs for substantive edits, and correct errors promptly. Significant corrections include a note explaining what changed and why. Readers can request a correction at [email protected].
Review Process
- Research: Identify user needs (first‑time buyers, upgraders, meal‑preppers, small‑space and budget‑focused cooks).
- Testing: Apply our standardized protocols (time–thickness maps, altitude/release adjustments, energy‑per‑meal scoring).
- Analysis: Weight outcomes by speed, consistency, safety, and ownership cost.
- Clarity: Translate findings into checklists, tables, and tool inputs.
