Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zojirushi NS-PC18 Electric 10-Cup (Uncooked) Rice Cooker and WarmerCustomer Review: A big fat YES! Summary: 5 Stars
I received this cooker as a holiday gift last winter. Its awesome. I can't recommend it highly enough. Just remember, as others have said, don't really go by the instruction manual.
Almost all the rice you cook in it will be 2:1, even short grain (except Japanese sushi rice, which is really tiny and almost elliptical). For brown rice and small rice batches (1-2 cups) I went even further than that, at 2.5:1, and it all cooked up better than perfect.
As far as rice boiling over, I have never had that problem because I never overfill it. Every rice cooker, stove pots included, will boil over and make a gooey mess if they're overfilled. I always be sure that with rice and water added, its all well under the top line inside the cooking pot.
If you haven't the time to soak the rice first before cooking, just be sure to let it sit after its light switches over for 5-15 minutes. This will really help it cook to the perfect consistancy. Though the light switches from "cook" to "warm," its not actually "ready" for a few more minutes.
Description of Zojirushi NS-PC18 Electric 10-Cup (Uncooked) Rice Cooker and WarmerStart your rice in the morning and have it moist, tender, and hot when you come home for dinner. This large capacity cooker will make enough for a crowd and the "keep warm" system switches on immediately after cooking without any help from you. Clean up is no biggie with the non-stick cooking pan and direct heating provides more even heat distribution to ensure delicious results every time. Equipped with a locking lid and a steam cap/vent to preserve moisture, this 600-watt electric appliance produces 2 to 10 cups of cooked rice and automatically keeps the rice fresh, moist, and warm for hours. About 30 minutes is required to cook 10 cups, with an additional 15 minutes of warming recommended for maximum fluffiness. The cooker operates simply. There's a single control to begin the cooking process, and lights signal when cooking ends and warming begins. Inside the white-plastic, cool-touch exterior, a nonstick pan readily releases cooked rice and then cleans up easily. Accompanying the cooker are a rice spatula, a spatula holder that hooks onto the cooker's side, and a plastic measuring cup. The cooker measures 10-1/2 inches wide, 10 inches high, and 13-1/2 inches deep, weighs 7-1/2 pounds, and can be lifted by handles recessed into the sides. --Fred Brack
