Part of it probably depends on what beans. I eat a lot of chickpeas and I think they’re a harder bean and less likely to get mushy. The other one is black beans and definitely they would be easier to overcook. Did you do the quick release? If not, next time quick release then immediately drain them and give them a quick rinse in cold water. I’m just using the bean setting on my instant pot so if that’s what you’re doing and it’s still mushy with the quick release, figure out how long that cooks for and drop it by a minute or two.
how do you prepare them? Whenever I tried using a pressure cooked for dried beans they turned out mush.

Hmm yes, I tried both, quick release and letting it cool down, also with chickpeas. Always ended up in mush…
I have a stovetop one, so there’s no program for me, I just tried what some recipies on the internet recommend.
Oh ok. I have to guess they’re cooking too long then but I’ve never used a stovetop one so IDK how much you should adjust it.
