I purchased this rice cooker from a local retailer and tried it out for the first time with brown rice. I was so excited to be able to make brown rice in 20 minutes!! Sadly, my first batch of rice was a hard, crunchy, inedible mess. What I realized is that the instructions on the product are for an 800 watt microwave and my home microwave is 1000 watts. I also found that for most rices that are not plain long-grain rice, you do need to add more water than they recommend. By setting my microwave to 80% power and adding about 1/4 cup more water than recommended on the product instructions, I was able to make fluffy, delicious wild rice last night in just about 25 minutes. |

It's a little expensive so I wanted to read reviews on Amazon before buying it. I've changed my diet to include lots of whole grains and my stovetop is a mess from things like rice and steel cut oats boiling over, so this seemed like a good product for me. I'm glad I read the reviews and knew I had to pay attention to the wattage of my microwave (1100) since the recipes are geared toward 800 watts. So I know at first I'll have to tweak each recipe, and write it down. Last night I made a brown rice mixture; took 20 minutes and more water. Turned out nice though! And today I made steel cut oats; took a total of 10 minutes at 80% power, 1 cup oats:2 cups water. After its resting time of 6 minutes, I had a container of nicely-cooked oats. Try it! Just be aware at first you'll have to be patient and figure out what works for your individual microwave. But no more having to scrub starchy... |
