Instapot pressure pressure knob literally explodes upwards.
I've been using this instapot for about 2 years now.
My gf recently took the parts off for cleaning but it never went back on quite the same because the pressure knob on top is incapable of staying on during the pressurized cooking part.
It will quite literally rocket upwards due to the steam. It's quite hilarious because I've broken 2 ramikins trying to hold it down during cooking.
Another thing I noticed is that the sealing level no longer really does anything. Either flipped up or down it makes no difference. The instapot is still cooking though which is strange.
Is there anything I can do to keep the pressure knob from becoming an explosive projectile every time I use the insta pot?
Many thanks
