You can keep the rice in the cooker for days and it keeps the temp well above the danger zone - which you can test with an infrared thermometer. I usually make enough for a couple of days - I make it late at night for a snack and it's fine for the next two days - I have a 10 cup IH pressure (around $600), a 10 cup fuzzy, a 3 cup steel, and a 5 cup micom. I've kept rice in all of them - just the rice in the 3 cup (6 cups cooked) is never enough to even last a few hours.
Good video. I have this exact cooker and I like it quite a bit. GABA rice is brown rice that has been germinated. This cooker will germinate any brown rice, and then cook it when set to the GABA cycle. Or you can buy pre-germinated brown rice which is labeled "GABA" and just cook it on the standard brown rice setting. You don't have to buy GABA rice to cook on the GABA setting. In fact you shouldn't, because you can't make pre-germinated rice any more germinated. It's just one or the other. Frankly, I think the "GABA" brown rice in a bag may be a bit of a marketing gimmick. That rice is completely dry, so whatever germination occurred, it was stopped again before they bagged it. I can't imagine that dried GABA in a bag is as good as rice that was freshly germinated and then cooked while the germ was still fresh.
@@emilyalana A simple (but slow) alternative to a fancy rice cooker with a GABA setting, or buying rare GABA rice, is to simply wash raw brown rice and let it soak for 6 hours in warm weather, or a whole day in cool weather. GABA rice really is noticeably different from brown rice cooked in the standard way. It's much softer and the flavor becomes mild but no less complex. I find it very enjoyable - I like it much more than traditional method brown rice. I hope more people start to make brown rice this way.
@@HCShuffle I'm with you on the nutritional claims. I'm not a nutritionist nor am I even good at chemistry or biology, but it seems a bit optimistic to think that something can happen to dry rice in around 4 hours (on my cooker) that would have a significant impact on its composition. Of course the process involves holding the rice at a very specific temperature for a certain minimum amount of time, but it just seems unlikely that it's as profoundly beneficial as the health claims. Actually, more than the rice cooker companies, it seems to me that the health improvement industry hypes GABA the most.
I got one of these for my birthday and I love it. It cooks rice perfectly and I have as of late been using my rice cooker for hard boiled eggs much better than doing them on the stove top. My model is this one. Looking forward to trying a cake and a fritata in this one. My older one got worn out and I asked for a new one. Thought hubby would get the same one I had but he got the Mercedes model of rice cookers. No more burning rice and ruining pans on the stove.
The extended keep warm function will keep rice warm and fresh for days. But I understand that you may want to take the rice out to use the machine for something else.
I have a zojirushi for the past 7 years! Buy buy buy, flawless operation time and again, I have used it literally thousands of times and never a problem. White rice, brown rice, AND best of all SUSHI RICE 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤! as somebody else said the ROLLS ROYCE of rice cooker
I just purchased this machine. I purchased an All-Clad rice cooker and no matter what I did it always scorched the rice. I cooked rice in it 5 times and finally gave up. I figured the Japanese know what they are doing with rice so I decided to give this a try. Hpe it works like I think it will.
Just to add a comment, my 20 year old 10 cup model is still in use and has been every day for the last several years. You can not say they aren't worth the money.
If you keep your water kettle under a cabinet, it will eventually destroy your cabinets. Love them, but find a place for the steam to not hit a cabinet.
I have one at home, but Zojirushi is quite the best rice cooker ever. My parents have on and it still has worked for 9 years! If some of you love rice, then I would recommend you to invest in Zojirushi because you won ´t regret it!
Depends on what type of review you are looking for. In this one, the person did not know to clean rice prior to cooking as well takes time here to advise that you can freeze and store rice....if you dont already know that then watch the entire video. If you are fully aware that rice is dirty and must be cleaned-etc then begin watching at 4:11
@@TSGSU They obviously haven't considered the implications of that then. Hard rice will scratch a non-stick surface. It's a no brainer regardless of what they say
By the way those bowls are not Teflon coated but Platinum according to the user manual a scratched surfaced over time is not a problem. The bowls are easily available but are expensive at around 100 USD.
Thank you so very much for this review! I already have a Zojirushi bread 🍞 machine. Now I’m thinking very seriously about purchasing the very same rice cooker that you just reviewed. That’s the very machine that I’ve been researching. And thank you also for explaining about rinsing the rice. I always wondered why I saw some people washing the rice 🍚. Beautiful rice cooker. Thank you again for this review. 😌 ✌🏼💗🙏🏼
I strongly suggest you buy a plastic rice cleaning bowl to clean your rice. Doing it the way you are doing it is very hard on your bowl, and if it is damaged, it costs a fortune to replace. By the way, it is called a rice paddle. :)
Did you remove the plastic on the top lid? Thought that was suppose to be in durin cooking. But I was worried about BPA leaking in heat from the plastics.
There's a food science behind why you "clean your rice..." Sadly, most don't understand these principles and default to always cleaning when it's not always required nor necessary. The main reason to "clean your rice" is to remove the starch particles that build up in the bag. If you don't want sticky rice, then "wash" it first. Personally, I love sticky-rice. So, I never "wash" before cooking.
Thanks for the video! I usually cook rice with other ingredients. Could we do the same with the ricecooker? Let's say for example corn, peas, mushrooms, etc...
I have a $16 three cup rice maker. For large Christmas gatherings, white rice and black beans are part on our menu. I make several batches the day before and refrigerate it in gallon ziplocks. The next day, I add a few tablespoons of water to the rice, microwave it for a couple minutes and the rice is hot and fluffy again as if it was just made.
please...do not wash the rice in the inner pot. It will scratch off the inner nonsticking coating. There are rice colanders for that purpose. Please, do not freeze your rice unless its leftover that you plan to fry as fried rice next day. The rice will be plainly tateless and dried if freeze. Just cook them as needed. And there is a keep warm timer for keeping rice fresh and warm The extended keep warm function will use a lower temperature to keep the freshness going for longer time.
Japanese products, like this rice cooker usually lasts many many years. Mine has been going strong 5 years in In Asian households, it can last about 8 years or more. It also cooks more than just rice. It can make cakes, stews, etc
pls don't waste water when washing rice. there are people out there who lacks access to clean drinking water. save water please. thank you. other than that, nice and helpful video.
Your right, we should be more mindful. I am however lucky enough to live in a town where wastewater is treated and reused -- which is something every city in USA should be doing.
Okay, every person demonstrating how to cook rice in this Zojirushi induction rice cooker, is showing how to prepare brown and white rice but nobody is demonstrating Lundberg Wild Blend that has multigrain with long thin black Wild Rice!!! When I rinse this type of rice, I do not see any starch appearing in the water. This type of rice still needs to be rinsed several times or does it have to be soaked instead since it is a whole grain?
With brown rice there is no starch to wash off like white so it's only to remove any dirt or impurities that could have been left but in my humble opinion rice harvesting is so good today it's not really necessary. Some warn if you wash brown rice to vigorously you're removing the healthy bran, this isn't factual. It's not a bad practice to wash food before you eat but not necessary with brown rice.
I bought this one for around $250 from Amazon. It's made in Japan. I thought I would be using this for many years . But just 18 months using it, suddenly it stop working. All the button doesnt respond. The clock is still on. So Brand, Price , made in Japan doesnt guarantee a good quality product.
Yes. Use the quick cook function. Rinse the quinoa first. This a huge machine with a very large capacity. I have a very similar brand machine and it's good for 2 to 4 people, max. I would respectfully suggest - unless you _are_ cooking for a lot of people, that you investigate smaller machines. Also more cost -effective.
I know this may be a stupid question, EX: If I use 2 cups of reg. white rice, Do I put the rice in the cooker bowl first than water to the marks on the bowl to 2, OR Do I put water in first to level 2 than add the rice?
Tom You have to put the rice first then fill the water to the marks on the bowl. The rice cooker also comes with its own measuring cup for the rice which is a little less then a cup and you have to use that cup in order for the rice to come out right.
I bought this based on your review and a recent price drop on Amazon. Can you post your method for oatmeal? It seems to be an off label use and I can't find any recipies via google.
All depends on how you want your oats. If you want a soupy oatmeal then use the porridge setting. On the other hand we often like to cook oat groats and cook them very much the same way you’d cook brown rice. We’ve branched off into barleys, spelt and a host of other grains. Stay away from very small grain-like products like amaranth or quinoa unless you’re limiting yourself to small amounts as the small grains can clog up the pressure mechanism. Over all our favorite cups now are blends of rices. Good example is what I did this morning: 1 part barn barn mee soft (a mixture of brown sweet, brow sushi, and white rice) with 1 part small sweet baby pearled barley. Us the white rice markings and put on Quick Cooking cycle. Of course, wash the grains but instead of doing it in the bowl use a separate strainer as that’ll avoid scratching the inside of the induction bowl (a lesson I learned the hard way). Pun intended. Other great combinations are 1:1:1 mixture of hulled barley, brown short grain, and oat groats. Use the straight brown rice markings and cycle for this. Combine the ingredients in the cooker and set to be done at 6am when you wake up. The aromas the fill the house make this approach one of the better ways to wake up on a cold winter’s morning. Plate in a bowl with miso soup and an egg .... you’ll be good to go all day.
I wrote to the company about basmati (I have the model featured in this video) and they said this cooker is "not made to cook long grain rice such as basmati." I was surprised by that answer! I also wondered why they couldn't just make a setting for it. Why would that be hard to do? However, the company customer service person did say that the standard white rice setting works best for basmati and other long grain rices. I had been using the Jasmine setting as that type of rice is longer grain than Japanese style short grain rice, but maybe Jasmine rice has some other properties that make the cooking setting for it less appropriate for Basmati? All I know is that my cooker, the one in this video, does a great job of cooking every type of rice I've tried in it, including at least three different brands of basmati.
@Lion To follow up on what i wrote before, I actually found that basmati and other long grain rice works best for me when cooked on the "quick" setting. That was a nice discovery because it takes less time than any of the other settings!
Your rice didn't turn out because you cooked it on the stove. You could have just bought a cheap regular rice cooker, a large one is about $40 and will work great if all you're doing is cooking rice.
Absolutely agree. Pretty irresponsible. Can you imagine someone watching from a part of the country with water problems, or NO water. Like the lady said at the end of Terminator 1, "Viene la tormenta!" HAHA
Agreed. People in entire countries and cities (Nepal, Chennai, South Africa) are going without water. What a terrible waste this guy displays. Makes me very sad to see.
Yea, it's not much different than a regular $12 rice cooker. High quality, well washed rice turns out the same in less than half the time. Instant Pot makes terrible rice though. I love my IP but it suuuuucks for rice and the stove is even worse.
we have not a shortage of water here in germany (up to now), but i never saw somebody who is wasting so much water as you do. you can do the 3 times washing with using less than a liter water at all. better think a bit about your use of recources ...
I absolutely hate this rice cooker and I'm sending it back after ruining three meals now. Tell me how this is an AI machine with fuzzy logic when no matter what you put in it it runs for 83 minutes overcooking the brown rice? That's not artificial intelligence, folks, that's just programming the "brown rice" setting to run for 83 minutes, circa 1960. It doesn't seem to have any sensors inside it from what I can tell. And please tell me how "pressure" cooking makes it take even longer to cook brown rice? Does 83 minutes sounds like pressure cooking to you? My last rice cooker took half that time for brown rice. It was pressure cooked alright, to disgusting mush. You throw in the rice and water and hit a button and it comes out perfect: That's what I expect from a rice cooker. If I have to formulate timing and quantities then where is the AI claim? And why is it not simple like my last two rice cookers?
A little advice: clean rice in another bowl so you don’t scratch the surface of the machine bowl.
I rinse it by hand in the cooking bowl, is there really a chance the rice will scratch the teflon?

@Lion To follow up on what i wrote before, I actually found that basmati and other long grain rice works best for me when cooked on the "quick" setting. That was a nice discovery because it takes less time than any of the other settings!
3 hrs to cook
Your rice didn't turn out because you cooked it on the stove. You could have just bought a cheap regular rice cooker, a large one is about $40 and will work great if all you're doing is cooking rice.
No.
It's a good point. I gather he's trying to make his by way of exaggeration. Good questionable sales technique. :-)
Thumbs down for all the wasted water
Thinking of you Buttercup me be washing rice very thoroughly!
Thanks for um the um review um um um
please don't clean your rice the way his guy does. He clearly doesn't understand he's bruising and ruining the rice.
What a waste of water letting it run like that.
Absolutely agree. Pretty irresponsible. Can you imagine someone watching from a part of the country with water problems, or NO water. Like the lady said at the end of Terminator 1, "Viene la tormenta!" HAHA
Cruel video. North Koreans don’t have rice. Censor this off the net!
Sorry. I can't stop thinking about the water wasted.
Yeah, I hate that a lot. It makes sense to pour it into another container and then use it to water plants.
Agreed. People in entire countries and cities (Nepal, Chennai, South Africa) are going without water. What a terrible waste this guy displays. Makes me very sad to see.
Get a life.
Good grief, 41 - 180 minutes to make rice and it costs $334, that's insane. Either buy an Instant Pot or learn to make rice on the stove (25 minutes).
Yea, it's not much different than a regular $12 rice cooker. High quality, well washed rice turns out the same in less than half the time. Instant Pot makes terrible rice though. I love my IP but it suuuuucks for rice and the stove is even worse.
@@krankenheim13 You are wrong.
we have not a shortage of water here in germany (up to now), but i never saw somebody who is wasting so much water as you do. you can do the 3 times washing with using less than a liter water at all. better think a bit about your use of recources ...
that water is so dirty and the guy is very wasteful.
I absolutely hate this rice cooker and I'm sending it back after ruining three meals now. Tell me how this is an AI machine with fuzzy logic when no matter what you put in it it runs for 83 minutes overcooking the brown rice? That's not artificial intelligence, folks, that's just programming the "brown rice" setting to run for 83 minutes, circa 1960. It doesn't seem to have any sensors inside it from what I can tell. And please tell me how "pressure" cooking makes it take even longer to cook brown rice? Does 83 minutes sounds like pressure cooking to you? My last rice cooker took half that time for brown rice. It was pressure cooked alright, to disgusting mush. You throw in the rice and water and hit a button and it comes out perfect: That's what I expect from a rice cooker. If I have to formulate timing and quantities then where is the AI claim? And why is it not simple like my last two rice cookers?
This or cuckoo?
They're probably about the same. Korea's Cuckoo brand is HIGHLY respected, but not marketed as agressively here.
toxic teflon non-stick
Only if you scratch it.
Jesus dude! Turn off the tap and stop wasting water.
turn off the water dude 💦
🚿 WastefulAF
yeah, right man.
This waste of water hand down
Sign of a bad TH-cam channel is that they don't answer questions.
i think you've over washed the rice and washed all the nutrients away.
Could you please stop wasting water..
God yes... I know you need to rinse rice, but it doesn't take 10 gallons to do it with!
we? who's we?
Way to make your rice cooker a tax write off!
I enjoyed watching all that water you wasted running down the drain...
