Brentwood BPC-110 7.5-Quart Aluminum Stovetop Pressure Cooker - Silver, 3 Safety Valves, Dishwasher Safe

Brentwood BPC-110 7.5-Quart Aluminum Stovetop Pressure Cooker

Before there were electric multi-cookers there was the stovetop pressure cooker, and there is still nothing that turns a tough cut of beef into a fall-apart stew faster. The Brentwood BPC-110 is a heavy-gauge aluminum 7.5-quart cooker with three safety valves and a pressure-lock indicator - a serious, simple pot that cooks up to 30% faster than conventional methods and goes in the dishwasher when you are done.

Key Features

• Cooks Up to 30% Faster: Pressure cooking collapses the timeline on beans, stews, braises, stocks and tough cuts. A pot roast becomes a weeknight meal.
• Three Safety Valves Plus a Valve Lock: Redundant pressure relief, plus a safety valve lock that will not let you open the lid while the pot is still under pressure. This is the part that matters most.
• 7.5-Quart Capacity: Big enough for a whole chicken, a family batch of beans, or a stock pot's worth of broth.
• Heavy-Gauge Aluminum: Aluminum heats fast and evenly, and keeps the pot light enough to lift full - a real consideration at 7.5 quarts.
• Dishwasher Safe: Brentwood explicitly rates this cooker dishwasher safe, which is genuinely uncommon for pressure cookers.
• Dual Cool-Touch Handles: Two handles, both stay cool, so you carry it with confidence instead of oven mitts and hope.
• No Electricity Needed: It is a stovetop pot. It works when the power is out, it works on a camp stove, and it will still work in twenty years.

Beans and legumes from dry, pot roast and short ribs, pulled pork, bone broth and stock, tamales, chili, canning-adjacent batch cooking, large-family dinners, and cooks who want pressure cooking without adding another electric appliance to a crowded counter. It is also the pressure cooker to own if you cook during power outages or on a camp stove.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this electric?
A: No. It is a stovetop pressure cooker. Amazon files it under electric pressure cookers, which is a miscategorization - there is no cord, no wattage and no presets. It goes on a burner.

Q: What is the actual capacity - 7.5 quarts or 7 liters?
A: Brentwood's own title and manual say 7.5 quarts, and that is the figure we publish. Note that Brentwood's body copy on the same page says six quarts and some retailers say 7.0 L - we cite the manufacturer's title and do not stack a liter figure beside it.

Q: Can I use it on an induction cooktop?
A: No. It is an aluminum body and Brentwood does not rate it for induction. Aluminum is not magnetic; it will not work on induction.

Q: Can I open it while it is under pressure?
A: No - and that is the point. The safety valve lock physically prevents the lid from opening until pressure has released, and the indicator tells you which state you are in.

Q: Is it dishwasher safe?
A: Yes. Brentwood states this explicitly, which is unusual for a pressure cooker and a real convenience.

Q: Is there a Prop 65 warning?
A: Yes. Brentwood's AB 1200 disclosure for this model group lists just two chemicals: nickel and nickel compounds (Proposition 65-listed) and aluminum.

Care & Use

Before every use, check that the pressure regulator and all three safety valves are clear of food debris - a blocked valve is the one genuine hazard of a pressure cooker. Never force the lid; wait for the safety valve lock to release.

Do not fill beyond the manufacturer's maximum fill line, and never fill more than two-thirds full with liquid (or half full with foods that foam, like beans and grains).

California Proposition 65 / AB 1200: Brentwood discloses that this model group contains nickel and nickel compounds (Proposition 65-listed) and aluminum. Dishwasher safe per the manufacturer.
