How do you get the PSI right -- just the old fashioned way of guessing not too much and not too little?

Yes or get a gauge to read it. This pump is best as a last resort, and not a replacement to a floor pump.

The pressure gauge on my unit redlines at 144 psi. I doubt very seriously that it will deliver anything close to that.

I would get a 0-30 psi gauge. It would be more accurate for a low pressure reading.

Yes as this is more than 50% of full scale it is very easy to read and confirm this pressure on a 0-60 psi scale. Many other gauges have a 0-100 or even 0-120 psi scale and it is more difficult to read a relatively low (37 psi) reading on those gauges.

A little experimentng adding or subtracting seconds will give you a pretty accurate answer.

I am not sure what you are asking, but there is no specific pressure that it uses.

It's a tester. I thought it was stupid - just put your hand on it and try. That's what I thought. It worked! It hurt. But that's because stupidly I thought #1 on a scale of 1-6 would be the least jolt. Wrong! Number #4 is the least. How counter-intuitive is that?

Yes, and it works just .....great! You may have to figure out your set point after you meet your PSI; but that is simple and seems to work for all the cooking I have completed!! GREAT PRODUCT....I RECOMMEND IT TO ALL!!!!

The PSI is adjustable and has a gauge .There are two gauges,one for tank pressure and another for line pressure.

One is the minimum psi, the other is maximum. Don't go below the first or above the second.

I ordered the 1.5 because I wasn't sure on how much pressure was going to applied. Melisa

I don't remember reading the PSI. One of the things I do like is that steam does not come out the top, Mr Chef adjustments itself unlike my non electric pressure pot that I put on the stove and have to adjust and adjust the burner to get the pressure set right. I also like that I can touch the sides when it is cooking so it is not heating up the house or putting humidity into the air, that is important here in Florida and elsewhere in the the summer. It cooks faster than the stove and makes everything tender also. If you are cooking for a family I think you will love this cooker as I do.

70-75 psi seems to work well. more pressure does not appear to have any greater effect. Hands down, one of the best purchases I have made in some time. I only use 110 volts. It has been more than adequate for my needs.

there is no psi measurement device on the cooker. just high and low indicator

Working PSI is 90 i think. however, to achieve a working PSI of 90, the regulator will have to be set higher. If you set the regulator at 90 and hit the trigger, you'll notice the psi gauge will go down to 70-80 psi. So set at 100ish and adjust your gauge to keep the psi at 90. The PSI at most auto shops is in the 125 neighborhood

If by best you mean most entertaining, try 200 psi. If that doesn't work, crank it up some more. Sorry, I suffer from extreme sacrasm. Your question is too vague.

The gauge reads 300psi, but it only gives me about 120 psig i think, its maybe more like 110 psig, anymore the regulator starts to leak off the extra pressure. This sucks....
