In reply to Diana Wolf. Cooking down on the stove reduces the broth more so you could start it in the pressure cooker and then finish on the stove top to save time.

I don’t know what happened here. I obviously did something wrong.
I had such hopes for this but it is definitely a fail. Maybe I didn’t use enough bones or too much water but it did not get gelatinous at all. I regularly make broth from chicken bones which comes out a lovely pale golden jelly consistency. Even my chicken soup gets gellified. This is a brown liquid with not Good flavor.

First I thought I didn’t cook it enough so I did it again- total of 12 hours. I’m sure it isn’t the recipe- had to be something I did.
Going to toss it, sadly and go back to just cooking it down on the stove top, may not be as nutritious but it will be edible. ?

In reply to Buddy. I just blend it in after it's been reheated.

After taking the broth out of the pressure cooker and chilling in the refrigerator there is a layer of grease or fat should that be removed or should that be reheated and drink?

In reply to Phong. Good point. Thanks for the tip. I make sure I specify that when getting the bones from the butcher.

In reply to Lisa. Just make sure you have enough connective tissues. Those release gelatin.

In reply to Brittany. Yes! Slow cooking is actually the best for bone broth.

Will this work in a crockpot? We don't have a pressure cooker and can't see buying one for a few recipes.

In reply to Hannah. You'll want to cook it longer. Sometimes, I pressure cook initially then put the Instant Pot on slow cook and let it sit for a day or two.

My broth is not gelatinous! 🙁 I put water until it just covered the bones (three lbs) then high pressure for three hours. What am I doing wrong??

In reply to Sue. I don't always get the gel even when I slow cook for days.

I've been making bone broth for about 2 months now and I've only gotten gel once. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.I use my pressure cooker for 4 hours.
