Try filling the crock with ice or ice-cold water - the reasoning is that the ice should cause the crock to shrink just enough to get it out. If that does not work, switch it on to heat he base; which should cause it to expand and when it is warm, pour cold water into the crock to shrink it

My Hamilton Beach slow cooker stopped going to keep warm after time was up, model 33966C
If your Hamilton Beach slow cooker model 33966C is no longer switching to the "keep warm" setting after the cook time is up, there could be a few possible causes:
- The thermostat may be malfunctioning. The thermostat controls the temperature of the slow cooker and if it's not working correctly, it could prevent the slow cooker from switching to the "keep warm" setting.
- The timer may be malfunctioning. The timer controls the cook time and if it's not working correctly, it could prevent the slow cooker from switching to the "keep warm" setting after the cook time is up.
- The heating element may be malfunctioning. If the heating element is not working properly, the slow cooker may not be able to maintain the correct temperature to switch to the "keep warm" setting.
- The lid may not be properly sealed. If the lid is not properly sealed, heat may be escaping and the slow cooker may not be able to maintain the correct temperature to switch to the "keep warm" setting.
It is recommended to try to unplug the slow cooker for a few minutes and then plug it back in to see if that solves the problem. If the problem persists, it may be best to contact Hamilton Beach customer service for further assistance or to have the slow cooker repaired or replaced.
Should the lid be a tight fit or loose
Most crock pots are made of porous ceramic and is relatively brittle. It is glazed on all sides (except the bottom usually), to make it hold liquids without absorption. The lids, usually glass or thermoplastic, sit of top, but do not usually fit tightly as this could crack the crock. Also, it is not a pressure cooker, so you want excess steam to vent. The lid just keeps the heat inside and allows condensation to drip back into the crock, reducing the speed at which the fluids cook off, thus the term slow cooker.
