Does it make brown rice and if so what is the ratio rice to water?

It's the same as white rice. Try it, and adjust. We use our to every kind of rice. A little experimentation, some notes, this cooker is my personal favorite.

Yes it does steam brown rice, there are graduated marks on the inside of removable insert. One side is for brown rice opposite side is for all other rice

Yes, so far it has. My ratio of water to rice has been 2-1. Also, I spread a little canola oil onto the bottom of the pot before adding rice and water in order to help prevent rice from sticking.

I haven't tried brown rice however they recommend you cook two cups at one time. I've done 1 1/2 and it stuck to the bottom a little bit but it worked.

not sure. If it is is is very thin. the bottom has stained a little from the water deposits in the outer pot. It is a good rice maker, I recommend it. E mail Aaron at Tatung to get directions for brown rice; it is different than white rice. enjoy

I've never used a rice cooker, but I use about 2-2 1/2 cups water for every cup of brown rice for cooking it on the stove top. Maybe you can convert this to what you need for your rice cooker.

I have never used this to cook brown rice but I do believe that all you need to do is make sure you add enough water. Brown rice needs more water than regular calrose rice that I use. I would give it a try. You might also try this as this is what I do when I can remember. Spray the pot with nonstick spray, wash the rice (rinse rice until the water is somewhat clear), put the rice in the pot and then start it. This will minimize the rice that sticks to the pot. Enjoy!

If you are using long-grain rice, then the measurement usually is - one cup of rice and two cups of water. For brown rice - one cup of rice to about two and a half cups of water. Tip - spray the bottom of the pot with spray oil, so rice won't stick to the bottom while cooking.

Yes. I've only made brown rice, though. I'm sure if you google "pressure cooker + rice" you'll find a lot of info about how to do it. For brown rice, I heat the pot on high, add a cup of brown rice and stir until it's hot, add a tablespoon or so of olive oil and a couple of pinches of salt and stir and then add 1 1/2 cups of water. Cover the pot and lock the lid and put the valve on top. When the valve starts rocking, turn the heat down to medium-low and cook for 17 minutes with the valve rocking gently. If it stops rocking, turn up the heat a little. If it rocks too hard, turn it down a little. After 17 minutes, take the pot off the heat and let it cool down by itself until you can take the valve off without releasing any pressure. Take the lid off and fluff the rice with a fork. You'll have to experiment with the exact heat setting and the time. It could be anywhere between 15 and 20 minutes and you may need to have the heat a little higher or a little lower... Hope this helps.

I tried brown jasmine rice in my pressure cooker and it was a disaster. I used the recipe in the manual. It called for 2 cups rice and 6 1/2 cups water for 20 minutes. Since I only wanted 1 cup I used 3.5 cups water. After 20 minutes I has lots of water remaining so DH put it back under pressure to try and cook more. I ended up with a soupy, sticky, gooey mess. Any ideas how to cook brown rice? ?

I've never boiled water in it. Put the water AND the rice in at the same time. About 30 minutes to perfect steamed white rice. I've heard that brown rice takes a little longer.

I used 1.5 cup of water per cup of brown rice (depending on rice) and it worked great. It does take a lot longer to cook.

Johnny - you might want to experiment with a little more water than regular white rice. I cook brown rice in my Aroma rice cooker daily.

This Tiger rice cooker is for making Mochi. If you cook brown rice the water amount will be different. You can steam regular rice but you would add more water. Pounding is for making Mochi.

yes but you need to soak the rice grains in water for a couple of hours and then make sure you have enough water because brown rice requires a little more water

I make brown rice often in this steamer. One cup of rice to 1 1/2 cups water. I do not soak the rice beforehand. I use the other two tiers to steam baby carrots, usually, and set the whole thing for about 50 minutes to an hour. It all turns out perfect.

I also need an answer to this question. I have read recipes for this cooker on an external site that call for 3/4 cup of brown rice. these recipes are for 3 to 4 people.

I've done brown rice in it and all you need to do is alittle more water but it came out great. I bought this cooker for my daughter and I still have my original one that I bought 12 yrs. ago..They seem to last forever even using it at least 4 times a week and leaving it plugged in all night.
