I have only used the rocker type. My understanding is that the spring
type doesn't use up liquid as fast, so perhaps recipes for them would
call for less liquid. In any event, having too much liquid is better
than too little (too a point, at least), so the Presto recipes should be
ok for the spring type cookers.
