Yes. The Instant Pot always smells like the last thing we cooked, but the smell doesn't seem to affect the taste of the next item.

That having been said, we're retired our Instant Pot after only a few attempts. Everything just makes the pot go to "BURN' before pressuring up. We've double and triple checked everything and it just always burns.
