More info is needed on your vague message. How do you determine the number
of hours set? What tactile feedback, if any, is given while you are setting
the number of hours?

Hi,
I have a Hamilton Beach slow cooker. You can set the number of hours you
want it to cook. You turn the knob to the desired high or low, then you
set the number of hours. When it is done, it will go to warm and stay
there.
Hope this helps.

Hi Jim, I have not heard of any accessible slow cookers. I would be
interested in one myself.

Good afternoon,
My name is Jim, and it's funny that I'd subscribe to this list, as I am
hardly a cook. I'm a bachelor who is hardly ever home and doesn't have
time
for a lot of cooking, but I'm also hoping that will change because it's
expensive to eat out a lot. I can do a bit more than boil water, but
don't
ask me to cook, for a ton of people, things that aren't easy.
Anyway, here's my question. Being new to the list, I have absolutely no
idea if this question has been asked, and if so, please forgive the
repeated
question.
So, after about 20 years of having a very simple slow cooker, it's time
for
a new one after I was somewhat careless and breaking mine a little while
ago. I'm a bachelor, and slow cooker or Crockpot recipes are great for
me
because I don't have to worry about much effort when it comes to
cooking.
However, lately, I seem to be getting home later than before, easily
being
out of the house for twelve hours.
Some of the recipes I've done call for cooking somewhere between six and
eight hours, and after twelve hours, some foods kind of dry out or
become
somewhat sticky or like paste <grin>.
So, do any of you have any recommendations for a good slow cooker or
Crockpot with perhaps a timer function that would be accessible to blind
people? I somehow doubt there'll be one that does what I'm looking for,
but
I just thought I'd ask.especially blind people who might have similar
experiences. I've been online, looking at the supposedly easy
programmable
ones, but what scares me is the digital setting ability.
Any suggestions would be great.
Jim
