Per the manual, your 3.0 holds 8 qts, as does mine...
If you put 8 qts in, as opposed to the 'about 8', let it run a couple mins, and let it sit for several minutes, you should be close to top notch of stick, if you are inserting the stick all the way.

If the full 8 are in, you need to let it drain a few/several mins: those 8 qts are not dropping to the pan in a couple mins, esp if not fully warmed up.
