I have that same rice cooker. Zojirushi. It’s pretty solid, so I’d bet whatever fancy crap it uses to tell if it’s properly cooked probably helped the way his stuff turned out

All any rice cooker does is simmer the water till it has all evaporated. They don't have a different setting for white or brown rice. Brown rice needs more water to cook. The picture is just a lie.

[–] starik@lemmy.zip 3 points 13 minutes ago

The ones with multiple settings cook the brown rice at a lower temperature. Combined with the higher water:rice ratio, this makes for a much longer cook time for brown rice.

Aome rice cookers absolutely have separate settings for different types of rice. Whether they do anything or are just placebo,I can't tell you, but the option exists.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 47 minutes ago

Perhaps with a lower heat setting that would take longer. Be a lot of extra tech thrown at something so simple.

Pressure cookers do the best jobs at rice. White or brown.

Zojirushi makes decent stuff - at least the couple items I have from them have been working well for the time I’ve had them.

[–] treesapx@lemmy.world 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, that Zojirushi has enough computers in it to adjust to most user mistakes. And anyone spending the money on one would know that.

[–] Texas_Hangover@lemmy.radio 3 points 1 hour ago

How much money and technology is required to cook fucking rice?

[–] null@lemmy.org 7 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

You know it's a premium rice cooker when the alarm sound is a music jingle. My microwave wishes it were that sophisticated.

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Had to replace the microwave recently after the last one crapped out. This new one also has a jingle. Why does every machine need a jingle now? The dryer has a jingle. It’s not even that fancy.

[–] Zorg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 18 minutes ago

Specifically choose our microwave because it can be muted. No unnecessary beeping or jingle is so much better.
