Milk
There are lots of fantastic recipes out there that call for milk to help make your dish creamier. Nevertheless, you should avoid using milk in your slow cooker.
And if you absolutely must, you should be careful of the amount and timing. In fact, dairy products, in general, should not be used in your slow cooker because prolonged cooking could cause them to curdle.
So if you truly must add dairy to your pot, add it at the end. Adding it too soon will make your dish a mess of chunky and curdled milk.
Too Much Liquid
Slow cookers don’t really lose much moisture when you’re cooking. Adding too much water will make your dish taste pretty bland. If you’re not using a specific recipe, we recommend you reduce the amount of liquid you put in by half.

Thanx u for interesting information.
Wow! I’ve been using dry pinto beans or great northern beans without soaking in my slow cooker for years…sometimes I put a frozen smoked pork hock in before starting it on high…comes out great every time…no worries here (~.~)
