In reply to Lisa Gilbert. Thanks for your feedback Lisa, I'll make sure to try again with whole soy beans and adjust the cooking time accordingly.

I’m not able to get dehulled soy beans so I did the extra step and soaked first. I then cooked for 40 minutes which was far too long. I think the cooking time for soaked beans should be halved.

In reply to Heidi. It will continue if the mold is already well developed. Usually at this point, the heat from the tempeh itself will allow the mold to develop without any other heat source.

In reply to Heidi. Yes, I usually use a glass lid too. Just be aware that it will also produce steam so you will have to pat it dry from time to time.

Great vid and very helpful. I have seen other versions in which (a) no water has been used during the fermentation process and (b) the pot has been left on the “Low” setting from the time mould has started forming u til the end product. If the IP is switched off, is fermentation guaranteed to continue?

I tried making natto in my instant pot and it turned out very wet – am concerned if I use the lid which seals, that it will do the same thing to the tempeh. Can I put any glass lid over if it covers the pot – I don’t have one that fits exactly. Would appreciate your input. Cheers
