I've done lentils and split peas in a pressure cooker without soaking
them.....

I put 2 cups of water per cup of lentils (or split peas) into the
pressure cooker with a chopped onion, some garlic powder, fresh ground
pepper and a ham bone, bring up to pressure then turn down and let
pressure for about 2 hours or so on low.

Works fine for me, and I'm sure it'd work with beans as well.

I know this is gonna get me flamed, but I usually just stick with canned
beans as I rarely ever eat them. Seems to eliminate the "gas" factor.
