Tips for Making Instant Pot Cinnamon Extract
Cook time does not include time to come up to pressure or for pressure to release.
Instant Pot Cinnamon Extract is ready to go in as little as 1 day but for the best homemade Cinnamon extract let sit for up to 2 weeks before use.
Do not use a stovetop pressure cooker or cook near an open flame.
Do not use a quick pressure release EVER with this recipe. You have to do a full natural pressure release as to not release alcohol vapor into the air.
Cinnamon sticks need to be completely submerged in the vodka.
Use a new canning jar or a canning jar that has not been used more than two times previously.
Make sure liquid is just below the first jar thread as the liquid needs room to expand.
