how long to make rice?

Plain rice? Why would you buy this device to make plain rice? Maybe 15 minutes....but what a waste! Make a nice risotto instead! BTW, contrary to what "disappointed shopper" stated, I am very happy with this device and it makes really great risotto!

I use a rice cooker to make rice, but I imagine it's the same principle, add rice, wash and rinse, fill with an inch of water above the rice level, and it should have an automatic shut off as the rice cooker does. If you have not purchased this yet, I was very unhappy with this product so I don't use it. I do love my Breville show cooker though.

I think about 15-20 minutes...I don't have my book with me right now, but I do know this. The rice comes out perfect!

We don't have it timed but it is really really fast. ... By the way it's the best rice maker we have had so far. You won't be disappointed.

There is enough room to cook that amount of rice, but I don't know the cooking time it would take

Thanks for the inquiry. 60 cups of rice takes 45-50 minutes to cook. This is a great purchase. I actually have two of them. I operate my own catering business and use them quite often. I use them for Spanish rice and white rice. If you have anymore questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks!

Once the rice cooks, you can leave it plugged in, and it will keep warm for up to 12 hours - white rice usually cooks in 20 mins and brown rice in 40 mins. There are different options for cooking rice, soups etc but there is no option for high or low

I cook mine 14 min. high pressure. Not the rice cooker. It is a bit moist at first, but let it set a while. 2 to 1 ration.

My husband cooked quinoa in it and it would take anywhere from 1-3 hours. I think rice would be similar. It was very inconsistent. The plug on ours burned after a few uses and was replaced under warranty. That one only lasted a couple of weeks (being used once or twice a week) and the plug burned up. I wouldn't recommend buying it.

It depends on how much batter you want. Usually at our home, we 3 cups of rice and 1 cup of lentil at once. Grinding and cleaning will be done by 1.5 hours maximum.

I use it to steam rice all the time, brown rice mostly. It comes with a basket (see the photo--that white basket inside of the steamer that is it). 1 cup of rice to 1.5 cups of water inside the basket. For brown rice, it is 50 minutes. I imagine it's a bit less for white rice. I followed the booklet that came with the steamer. Good luck!

Standard procedure of cooking rice is to take 1 cup of rice with 1.75-2 cups of water and soak it for 15 minutes before starting the cooker. The cooker automatically stops after cooking or it will switch to 'keep warm mode".

I haven't measured the time, but it is probably 10-15 minutes for white rice. Brown rice takes a little longer since you have to add more water.

As the previous reply said, for rice it gives a countdown once it's about 10 mins from the finish. But it's very consistent in regard to the time, so once you use it you'll know how long the rice will take. If you're talking about other food, like for steaming vegetables, then the answer is yes, since you tell it how many minutes you want it to cook. Excellent machine.

As it only holds about 1.5 cups of rice, it takes roughly 15 minutes. I never measured this with a watch, however, it is my general observation. The beauty is that it is "fire and forget"; once you put water and rice in and but go it does all the rest.

1 cup of rice - 2 cups of water (add a little salt if you like your rice salted). It depends on your microwave - mine takes 15 min on high. After 15 min., I open the pot, stir the rice and put it back in the microwave another 5 min. At this point, I sometimes add frozen peas and cubed carrots. When it's done, close the black vent on top of your cover to keep it warm and let it finish steaming. To warm up cold rice, add a little water to the rice before putting it in the microwave (it depends on the amount of rice - for 1/2 a pot maybe a Tbsp).

Depends on the type of white rice, normally 55 minutes, but all my rices turn out great, expense item but worth it if you want great rice of various types and you eat rice on a regular basis...then a good investment

Hello David. I'm sorry I can't help because I haven't made regular rice yet. I Can tell you this. I've used to make Rice & Peas and a lot goes in it. 4 cups Rice, cocnut milk, black beans, garlic& onion, seasonings & water. My Meals take about 3-4 hrs to cook & the last 40 minutes I start rice & it's ready at the end. I would guess 15-20 minutes for reg rice. I love this thing & I've had many over the yrs. I recommend highly.

1 cup plain rice, 45 minutes. Haven't tried more but probably won't take too much longer.
