Nationwide.

fantastic rice cooker. i had a kmart one, and decided to invest in a rice cooker. perfect rice cooker. when you put to much water or not enough water, it adjust and cooks it perfectly every time. it also keeps it warm for a few days with out burning or drying it out. i love mine.
Don't know how safe it is to keep cooked rice warm "for a few days"
im still alive, and i do it every week.
so i am going to go out on a limb and say it is safe. ymmv.reheated refrigerated rice is the worse, you can only make fried rice with it to be acceptable.
reheated refrigerated rice has less carbs in it surprisingly.
You should let it cool down before heating it up again. The process of cooling then reheating starch turns it into resistant starch which is better for you! Also applies to pasta.
Look up perpetual stew. As long as the temperature stays above the level bacteria can develop you're fine.
Look up extremophiles, I'm sure they'd find something novel by studying perpetual stews.
Not that they would necessarily make you noticeably ill.
1 week is ok
I wouldn't leave it any longer than half a day in the cooker, not because of health reasons, but because it doesn't taste as nice.
No, it doesn't "dry" out like the cheap cookers but saying it's as good as when it was freshly cooked is BS.
Best way is to put the left over in a container and freeze it. It'll be just as good if you microwave the frozen rice for your next meal.
Alive != healthy. You could be shitting yourself and not realise it's the rice :p

Uncooked rice can contain spores of Bacillus cereus, bacteria that can cause food poisoning. The spores can survive when rice is cooked.
If rice is left standing at room temperature, the spores can grow into bacteria. These bacteria will multiply and may produce toxins (poisons) that cause vomiting or diarrhoea.
The longer cooked rice is left at room temperature, the more likely it is that the bacteria or toxins could make the rice unsafe to eat.
Just get your leftover rice and place it in the fridge. Next day, make a stirfry.
It's low effort to make rice with a rice cooker. I wouldn't risk it.
Who said anything about leaving it at room temperature?
Temperature does play a factor, but keeping it "warm" only slows down the rate of growth.
We're talking in hours for growth not days.Edit: If anything, you would encourage more growth at warmer temperatures compared to simply placing it in the fridge
Uncle Roger approved?
I cook my rice in a microwave, who cares what fake online personas think.
username checks out
yessir, more real than uncle rodgers accent.
While you're right about one joke YouTube comedians, microwaved rice sucks nuts.
Uncle Roger only approve baaby elephant brand
Anyone know of a small rice cooker (1-2 cups) with a stainless steel bowl? Looking for something for 2 people.
cordon bleu (it has an electric attachment for one of the stainless steel pots) trust me not worth it and we had one for years growing up. I just use a plastic decor rice cooker tub in the microwave now.

Haven't used it personally, but friend has the 3 cup one.
I believe Cuckoo also have 3 cups rice cooker which is ideal for 2 people.
CUCKOO Electric Rice Cooker 3 cup CR-0351F fuzzy series
This Cuckoo one is actually very compact comparing to other rice cookers in the market :D
I bought this a few months ago. Love it, never going back to microwave rice. The keep warm function is great, I’ll usually put the rice on in the afternoon and it’s still perfect at dinner time.
Does it make sense to invest into more expensive one or if this one is good enough?
Isn't this a down grade since Ozb luvs their tiger rice cooker for fluffy rice. 😅
this also makes fluffy rice, but for a lot cheaper. one is japanese and the other is korean.
The Xiaomi rice cooker is better.
Maybe you can only cook "tiny rice" with it lol
I eat 4 day rice every week. Still hear
It's poisoned your English.
Medic!
I got mine for $7, still cooks rice…, what’s special about this?
A cheap rice cooker lets out all the moisture whilst burning the rice that's in contact with the pot. And any rice that's in it for more than 5 minutes starts drying out immediately. This keeps rice moist for over 24 hours - upgraded last year and couldn't go back. Worth every cent.
We have a more advanced Cuckoo.
Upgraded from one from Aldi, and it is AMAZING. Don't know how it does it, the website talks about some induction technology or something I didn't read into it too much, but it's like made rice cooking into an art, and cooking rice and eating it has become one of my small pleasures haha. Also talks in Korean which is an added bonus
Comparing a cuckoo, zojirushi or tiger to the Kmart or even worse, microwaved rice is akin to comparing a Ninja Nutri to hand smashing frozen fruit for a smoothie.
We’ve used our tiger rice cookers for 12 years here and eleven in Asia. I don’t think I’d buy anything apart from those three is one of our Tigers ever broke. I haven’t looked into the specs, but these are not single use machines. For example, our tiger makes porridge, steams, slow cooks, then has function for brown, white, mixed rice, rapid etc plus a few more functions.
Anytime any of the three aforementioned brands pop up here, the same comment come from those who cook rice once a month. These machines aren’t for those consumers for if your eating rice with that limited frequency, you wouldn’t appreciate the difference anyway.
So true. My family thought I was nuts for buying an expensive rice cooker but the difference is massive. Could never go back.
Now any rice deals? :)
Where do everyone get their rice from? Asian grocers?
We just get the 10kg bags of sun rice calrose medium grain when it is half price at Colesworth.
Does it just cook rice or can do something else? Says it’s multifunctional?
From the description from same product on amazon; MULTI-FUNCTIONAL: Features 9 menu options such as white rice, GABA rice, multrigrain/brown rice, porridge, slow cook, reheat, and more amongst a multi-cook function that cooks every grain from quinoa to oatmeal.
FWIW, "porridge" is actually "congee" but the word is used intermittently in Asia. It's basically soupy white rice with whatever you want thrown in to make a thickened soup. Great comfort and winter food. We add sweet potato, tofu, veges and whatever meat we have left over thrown in.
About a year ago, I snagged this rice cooker from Bing Lee on eBay for $159, and guess what? I've been using it every single day since then! I just wanted to share my experience with you.
Okay, so initially, you might notice a bit of a plastic-y smell during the first few uses, but don't worry, it fades away quickly. And the best part? The rice comes out just perfect, no weird smells at all.
I've been playing around with a few of its features – like the basic rice cooking, reheating, turbo cooking, and the timer. Honestly, I didn't expect to use the timer as much as I do, but it's turned out to be super handy! While the turbo cooking can be a bit hit or miss, everything else works like a charm!
One tiny thing – the clock tends to run a bit fast, so you might need to adjust it now and then. But honestly, that's a small quirk in what's otherwise a fantastic appliance.With its current price at Costco, I'm all in for recommending it! 😊 It's compact, easy to use (no touchscreen bs), good size (5 cups, good for 2 - 4 people). Not sure if it's got the Uncle Roger seal of approval, but from an Asian cooking standpoint, it's a winner! 😄🍚
How does it fare with basmati rice folks?
I cook basmati with mine and it turns out great.
Could someone please tell me what the cooking pot is like on the Cuckoo?
I have a Panasonic rice cooker, it does a pretty good job but the cooking pot is a light aluminum which tends to convex at the bottom overtime making the rice/water depth vary.
