No. This one has a minimum setting of 1 hr. I bought another type also from amazon that has a 30 minute setting.

Burned the pots???????Use light bulbs that don't radiate much heat.LEDs are wonderful, if bulb heat is the problem. Good luck.

it is in increments of 2... like 2, 4, 6, 8. then there is a blank space where u can just leave it on permanently without the timer.

I just run in thru again without the grounds after the warmer timer shuts off. I have mine set for 4 hours..... but if your drinking good coffee you wouldnt have to re-heat, It should be already gone and making another fresh pot.

It's been several months since we replaced ours, so only going on memory here. There was a 'one minute' button which would heat on high for one minute. If you enter say 530, it should heat for 5 minutes 30 seconds, at whatever power level selected. If it doesn't do that, it's defective. Try entering a time then hit the timer button, which should just time down and sound the alarm when the time is up. If that doesn't work either, you know it's defective. Good luck. (Our control panel worked fine for 10 years.)

This Microwave has provisions for 1-2-3-4-5-6 minute cycles. If you want a different time, you can set it manually. However, this is the least of the problems with this unit. It cuts out the power when you have a 2-6 minute cook time. if you are not standing there, you'll have no idea how long your food has really cooked. Good luck.

Hi Beth,This is a great timer and is my third one. I buy them for my irrigation systems and have been using them for a long time. You won't have any problem setting this up to run for 8 hours. You can set any duration between 1 minute and 11 hours and 59 minutes.Good Luck!Alex

Instructions say 30 sec at a time until warm enough. It does not hold the heat very long at all. Not worth it.

Jane Lewis' answer sounds right! I "reduce" the amount of electricity used by setting my timer for 25 to 30 minutes and then plugging in the top to the base when the timer rings. This gives the base time to start the boiling process.

I wish I knew, because this is a common problem. But I have a suggestion. When you are done using it, donot turn it off! Turn it on the coolest setting, zero I think, and let it cool down with air blowing through it. About 45 minutes. Otherwise you will burn up the heating element!

Under 5 mins? Turn the dial to the far right and turn it on. Heats up too much then just turn down the dial.

i haven't actually timed it but it is quite fast. the cheap one we bought as a temporary fix when my good one finally wore out was so slow it drove me crazy! i would say less than 5 minutes for a full pot.

The herbs will cook down to about 1/2 to 1 cup of liquid. A pot of herbs takes about 3-4 hours to cook. The pot will automatically click over to the "warm" mode when it's finished cooking. Once it does that, you can pour off the liquid. I suggest using a small strainer when you pour it into your cup. Then put the herbs from the strainer back in the pot if you'll be using them a second time.

JROnline -- did you find a timer that is programmable for seconds? We are looking for this as well and only finding 1 min minimums.

I concur with the answers below and just want to add, I LOVE THESE POTS. I have two of them and they have been wonderful. Caution: they cook must FASTER then conventional pots. IOW, sauces that used to take 10+ minutes to make now take about 5-7 minutes.

depends on altitude, amount, fire temp. tea pot with a qt. of water, maybe 10 minutes.

I have to agree with Michael...I sent mine back as it was scratched up, looked used and every time I plugged it in the controller smoked (I tried 8-10 times). Was afraid to even give it a whirl, so wouldn't recommend. My suggestion: invest in a 1600 watt portable induction cooktop and use your own clad induction ready cookware. With those you can use them as a slow cooker. It's the solution I finally came up with.I never took the opportunity to measure volume since, as I said, the controller smoked, even after leaving it plugged in for 30+ minutes 8-10 times. It did look to hold 4 qts. to the top, but would advise using only 2-3 qts., just in case it boiled over.
