I reduce the amount of water usually by a little bit because the crockpot is really good at making its own juice. ------------- http://www.bump-and-beyond.com/">

I ususally nearly always halve the water amount. And I put my crockpot on in the morning on low and turn it off at 6pm for dinner. ------------- http://www.bump-and-beyond.com/">

| Even with a maggi cook in the pot satchet you would put it on in the morning at about what time and still turn off at 6pm |

About 8am as I was leaving. My DP would check it when he came home for lunch and if he thought it was done, would just turn it on to heat, which keeps the food hot. ------------- http://www.bump-and-beyond.com/">
