I bought an electric rice cooker two or three years ago now, an Aroma brand. It is like an Instant Pot because it cooks rice, brown rice, beans, and other things I don't remember, doubles as a slow cooker, a pressure cooker, and you can prebrown meat in it before slow cooking it or pressure cooking

I follow the instructions, turn the rice cooker on, and when it is finished it beeps at me. It will continue to keep the rice warm until I rescue it for dinner. So far it has never failed to impress. Pamela Fairchild -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of Marilyn Penning

I've had three of them. One was so small it only did a single serving of rice. I don't know what brand that was. I had a nice Panasonic that was almost big enough to run an oriental restaurant. It gave me years of great service before burning out the heating element. I got a smaller one from Aldi a

Each rice cooker will be a little different. What brand do you have? Is there a model number on it anywhere? If so, you can maybe find instructions for it online. That would be better than guessing. Does the pot itself have any sort of fill lines inside? That could give you an idea. It sounds small

Hi, Jeanne. I think that with either white or brown rice the ratio is 1 part rice to 2 parts water. I have a small and really basic electric rice cooker and use this ratio with a 3/4 cup for a measure, and add a pinch of salt (optional). HTH, Dani On 10/30/19, Jeanne Donovan via Cookinginthedark
