-When water heats in a pressure cooker and the pressure builds to lock the lid, the temperature of the water increases, and boiling stops. For 15 psi (100 kPa) pressure cookers, the temp of the water is as high as 121 C (250 F), considerable hotter, and results is very severe burns if you come in contact with the steam venting from open relief valves or a failed gasket.+When water heats in a pressure cooker and the pressure builds to lock the lid, the temperature of the water increases, and boiling stops.
