Steaming Guide - West Bend Chris Freytag Health Steamer Manual De Instrucciones

These steaming times are for the bottom basket filled to the capacity listed in the
chart. Items will cook faster in the bottom basket. If you are cooking with multiple
baskets, or putting more food into the baskets than suggested, you may have to add
extra steaming time. The water level does not have to be precise. The following
levels are suggested to provide enough water for the recommended steaming times.
Note: The drip tray must always be used.
