My slow cooker finally died after 12 years, tried a new method

My old Crock-Pot gave out last Tuesday when I was making a bean stew for the week. The ceramic insert cracked right down the middle during a preheat. I ended up buying a secondhand one from a thrift store near my house for $8, and it works fine, but I had to adjust the cooking time since the newer models run hotter. Has anyone else had to relearn their timing after switching slow cookers?

Man I used to think all slow cookers were basically the same but that thrift store find totally proved me wrong. It took me like three batches to figure out my new one cooks way faster than my old one ever did.
