Pressure cooking gives you time, energy, and preserves vitamins. In a pressure cooker, you can prepare food gently under pressure in just a few minutes. Some Fissler pressure cookers also have a pressureless steam cooking stage. With steam cooking, food is cooked delicately, preserving almost all its flavor and nutritional value. With pressure cooking, you use less energy due to shorter cooking times: This means you cook in an environmentally conscious way and save money.

Pressure cooking gives you time, saves energy, and preserves the best of your ingredients. In pressure cooking, ingredients are cooked quickly and gently. Vitamins and flavor are largely preserved compared to conventional cooking.
Pressure cooking is modern and fits ideally with a healthy lifestyle. Pressure cookers are ideal for:
Cooking with a pressure cooker saves you time. The pressure created in the pot reduces cooking time by up to 70%.
This increase in temperature ensures that the cooking time is more than halved compared to a conventional cooking pot.
Shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption make the pressure cookers from Fissler sustainable companions in the kitchen.
The Vitavit® Premium also features the German-made CookStar® base. This has a high thermal conductivity and is particularly energy-efficient. It is suitable for all types of stoves and optimized for induction. The Vitaquick® pressure cooker is equipped with the Superthermic® base, which is also suitable for all types of stoves.
Vitamins, nutrients, and flavors are almost completely preserved during pressure cooking.
Especially for sensitive vitamins, this fast method of preparation is gentler than cooking in a conventional pot. Valuable vitamin C, for example, is retained by up to 90% during pressure cooking.
Pressure cookers use steam to create pressure in an airtight pot. This allows higher temperatures for faster cooking of food.
The boiling temperature of the liquid is increased from 212°F to up to 240°F with the help of pressure. The lid with the safety system with patented technology and the Fissler sealing ring closes the pot securely and airtight.
During heating, water vapor is produced, which allows oxygen, which is harmful to vitamins, to escape from the pot.
How to use your pressure cooker:
For us, "Made in Germany" means creating long-term value. Through a combination of leading technology, craftsmanship and high-quality materials, we produce the finest cookware.
In 1953, Fissler invented the first multi-stage safety cooking valve, made the pressure cooker safe and "tamed" it for home use. The three-stage safety system with patented technology ensures that the pot is safe to use. Today, thanks to Fissler, you can use pressure cookers easily, conveniently, and safely on the stove at home.
All Fissler pressure cookers have a safety system with patented technology and meet strict quality and safety guidelines. For example, they regulate themselves if the pressure inside should be too high. You cannot open the pressure cooker until there is no more pressure inside. In addition, the pressure cannot be built up until the pot is properly closed.
The cooking stages allow foods of different heat sensitivity to be cooked optimally in the pressure cooker.
Depending on the model, several cooking levels are possible with the pressure cookers. These have an influence on the cooking time. Cooking time in the Vitavit® Premium (also for previous models) is as follows:
The Vitaquick® is the predecessor model of the Vitavit® Premium and only has two cooking stages:
Stage 2 (240°F, fast cooking stage)
Equivalent to about ⅓ to ½ the cooking time with a conventional saucepan and is ideal for meat or stews.
Stage 1 (230°F, slow cooking stage)
About 50% longer than level 3 and well suited for delicate vegetables or fish.
Fissler pressure cookers come in different sizes. Depending on the dish and portion size, you will find the right model at Fissler:
1.9 quart: 1-2 people
2.6 quart: 1-3 people
4-4.8 quart: 3-4 people
6.3 quart: 4-6 people
8.5 quart: 6-8 people
10.6 quart: 8+ people
To ensure that your pressure cooker lasts a long time, it is important to clean it properly. Since the pot body and lid (apart from the attachments) are dishwasher-safe, cleaning requires only a few simple steps.
You should proceed with the attachment parts of the cover as follows:
Regular use of stainless steel care also helps to preserve the stainless steel surface.

Fissler offers practical pressure cooker sets that are well equipped for the preparation for several meals and portion sizes.
The Vitaquick® pressure cooker sets consist of a pressure skillet (2.6 qt.) and a large pressure cooker (4.5 qt.or 6.3 qt., depending on the set). This means you are optimally prepared for both smaller portions for 1-2 people and larger portions for 2-4 people.
The Vitavit® Premium set is available in various combinations. These consist of a Vitavit® Premium pressure cooker with a capacity of 6.3 qt or 4.8qt and are also equipped with a pressure skillet. With the glass lid, the pot can be used like a conventional cooking pot.
Our cookware is made with the best technology and craftsmanship. Our materials are of the highest quality, so your cookware will last for years. Thank you for the chef, the ingredients, and the people who we cook for. This is how we say thank you.
Pressure cookers cook food under pressure with steam in a hermetically sealed pot. This allows food to be cooked at temperatures of up to 240°F. This saves time, energy, and preserves the vitamins and flavor.
Fissler pressure cookers have a multi-stage safety system with patented technology that is continuously being developed. To guarantee the safety and high quality of our pressure cookers, every Fissler pressure cooker goes through a manual "100% check" before it leaves our factory in Rhineland-Palatinate. Fissler pressure cookers regulate themselves if the pressure inside should be too high. For safety reasons, the pressure cooker cannot be opened until pressure has been released. Also, pressure cannot build up within the pot unless it’s properly locked. In addition, the locking indicator shows with the change from red to green and an audible "click" that the pot is securely closed.
Whether passionate cooks, discerning gourmets, or epicures: a pressure cooker is worthwhile for anyone who wants to save time and energy when cooking. Pressure cookers are suitable for any household size.
The higher temperature in the pot shortens cooking times by up to 70% compared to conventional cooking. This can save up to 50% energy. By excluding atmospheric oxygen and thanks to the short cooking times, the food is also cooked particularly gently. Vitamin, mineral, and aroma substances are better preserved, colors remain fresh and the intrinsic flavor intense.
Pot and lid (without cooking crown, handle and sealing ring) can be cleaned in the dishwasher. The cooking crown, handle and sealing ring must be cleaned by hand. We recommend treating the pot and lid with stainless steel care if necessary. This will make the stainless steel more resistant to salts and acidic foods. Residues of the care products should always be washed off thoroughly.
