How do I know cheesecake is cooked all the way?
Make certain that you have enough cups of water added to the Instant Pot before cooking. I add the water in 1/2 cup increments. You need to be certain to cover the cheesecake as well.
After the cooking time has passed, there shouldn’t be any liquid on the top. It should have a very slight jiggle to it, but not be overall jiggly. You can also let it cool a bit to see if it’s firming up.
