If you want to use your own cooker, just make sure it has the external valve that used to be standard on most pressure cookers but now are much harder to find. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.highwaterfilters.com\/collections\/vortex-non-electric-water-distiller-kit\/products\/vortex-magefesa-modified-pressure-cooker?variant=26542385990\"\u003eThe Magefesa Star R\u003c\/a\u003e has the right kind of valve.
