Hello Malkeetji,

Thank you for your kind comment. Always nice to know where my colleagues are.
Also, your suggestion about using a wallpaper removing machine seems super !! Never thought about that before !
Indeed, working with my modified pressure cooker is not without risk. The needle can detach suddenly, and worse, the cooker can explode because I had to remove one of the security valves. But, untill now nothing serious has happened…
Did you succeed to open a joint with this wallpaper steamer ??

You have mentioned that you recieve several burns with the steam from your pressure cooker and hose. Another useful device is a wallpaper removing machine from DIY shops. It has a chamber to put the water, it is heated and has an attached hose, simply remove the large handle from the end to leave a hose end through which the staem comes.
