You need to presoak the beans. Otherwise you will have problems!

 Carlota Saavedra Chmielewski (Virginia) says:
If your pinto beans are dry, fill the jar only halfway and the rest up to 1-inch from rim with water or broth. The dried beans will double their size when they expand and soak up the liquid. Do not put dry beans up to 1-inch of the jar. If they are dry then up to halfway, with the rest water.
