Cooks on high for two hours then goes to low until you shut it off. Works great!
How do I adjust heat on 6 qt. Corningware SlowCooker?
These models have been discontinued so replacement parts are no longer available from Corningware.
When a slow cooker is set on auto, it starts out with a high temperature and then switches to a low temperature when the crock has warmed up sufficiently. When the crock starts to cool off it switches back to high again, and so on.
utill reaches a certain temperature
The auto function will cook on high for a certain lenght of time and then switch to low.
You probably can't, but a light sanding with Emory cloth might help. I'd be hesitant to try anything spectacular though. Glassware is fragile and can be damaged by misuse. Be advised too, that there is a school of thought which will tell you that newer (post 1984 if memory serves) Corningware may spontaneously explode. GOOGLE "exploding corningware" for a plethora of stories. FriPilot
The machine starts cooking on high and reduces to low once the food is cooked, I use it a lot and it is a great feature.
Funny you should ask. I am looking for a replacement lid for the same model. If I can't find a lid, my ceramic crock would be available for sale.
Yes, you can cook pasta in a slow cooker by adding the pasta, sauce, and water to the slow cooker and cooking on low for a few hours until the pasta is tender.
Yes, you can make meatloaf in a slow cooker by shaping the meat mixture into a loaf, placing it in the slow cooker, and cooking it on low for several hours until it is cooked through.
Parchment paper or aluminum foil can be used as a substitute for a slow cooker liner.
