For a 6-quart Instant Pot, pour 1 cup of broth or water into the inner pot. For an 8-quart Instant Pot, pour 1 ½ cups of broth or water into the inner pot.
1- 1 ½ cups vegetable broth or water
Place a steamer basket in the inner pot of the Instant Pot and add the green beans to the steamer basket.
Close the lid and check that the venting knob is sealed.
