More importantly, it is fantastic at cooking grains.
For me, there was a learning curve. So, experiment, you’ll figure it out.
I would personally, repurchase this over and over.
years
The pressure cooker consistently made aldente, overly sticky, and sometimes watery rice. My cat hated it, so I brought it to a priest, and he hated it too. So I prayed, and the Lord said, "Child, givith to me an entire week's paycheck. And in return, I will give you yum." And after 2 swift days, I received the rice machine and a 4 year protection plan. Amen.
Come the following week when I could afford rice again, my entire life changed. I stopped using Baton rice (which I can't help but feel was an improvement), and the pressure cooker was never used again.
This rice cooker makes perfect rice EVERY TIME. I never liked plain white rice, and now I'm scared because of how much I like it. I've made a pot of rice every day since I got it, and every time the entire batch it evenly cooked, nicely tender, and the perfect amount of sticky. My cat loves it and so does my rabbi. I am aware it can be used for other purposes, but I have more faith in this rice cooker than my parents will ever have in me. So I say, go bananas! If you have a few extra bucks and some extra time, I would recommend.
This doesn't have a slow cooker function like the big boys do, but I have a small galley kitchen, so I can't buy the gigantic one.
I've literally never had any problems with any kind of rice. This works for literally any kind of rice. It keeps the rice warm, almost hot for several hours. So I sometimes make rice at breakfast and eat the rest at lunch if I'm feeling lazy.
It also has steelcut oatmeal, quinoa and CAKE functions. I've not cooked any of those, but I'm definitely interested in a cake out of this bad boy. It comes with a pretty detailed instruction manual including some recipes.
Cleaning is easy, the little bowl is non-stick, so just wait for it to cool, wash it like you would any other non-stick pan and put it back in for storage. The top of the lid is also removable and should be cleaned after every use.
It comes with its own rice scoop and rice cup. Do not use any other cup, and don't use an actual measuring cup, because this thing is NOT a full cup. It's roughly 3/4 cup, so if you are the sort to misplace stuff in your kitchen, either buy another one (they're about $8) or just use 3/4 cup as your measurement until you find the right one. Also use the measurement in the bowl, it's there for a reason. You don't have to make this complicated, ignore the directions on the bag, use the bowl.
Once it cools, make sure to wipe out any rice that escaped from the bowl, because it will burn. It takes about half an hour after you turn it off to be fully cool to the touch.
And yes, it does sing to you when you turn it on, and when it's done, there's a different song. You cannot change it. Listen to the song of the rice cooker. Love the song of the rice cooker. Do a little dance when it sings, and eat rice.
I use it to make brown rice, about 1/2 cup per day. Timer function is nice so it has time to soak and is fresh when I want to eat it. Downside is that it seems to have relatively long cook times (want to say it's 90 min for brown and 45 min for white). Makes a nice little sponge cake too, that takes about 50 minutes to bake on cake setting.
Small quantity of rice tends to dry out, so I toss a little water in and use the reheat function to bring it back to life after a few hours. Also add vegetables after the rice is done cooking, use same reheat function, for a quick lunch.
Overall, nice for a regular rice eater, worth the price as it works well and used frequently.
The only downside is the lack of a feature to lock the lid in place when scooping rice. This can be inconvenient and messy when trying to transfer the rice to a serving dish. However, this is a minor issue, and overall, the Zojirushi 612252-NL-BAC05SB rice cooker is a great investment for anyone looking for a high-quality, reliable rice cooker.
