· Before placing the inner
pot into the rice cooker,
check that it is dry and
free of debris. Adding
the inner pot when wet
may damage the rice
cooker.
· Some grains require a
much longer cooking
cycle than others due
to the extra bran layers
on the grains. The
Brown Rice function on
this rice cooker allows
extra time and adjusted
heat settings in order to
cook the grain properly.
If it appears the rice
cooker is not heating
up immediately on the
Brown Rice setting, this
is due to a low-heat
soak cycle that precedes
the cooking cycle to
produce better results.
· Food should not be left
in the rice cooker on
Keep Warm for more
than 12 hours.
Note:
Helpful
Hints:
To add more flavor to
grains, try substituting
a favorite meat or
vegetable broth or stock.
The ratio of broth/stock
to grain will be the same
as water to grain.
For approximate rice
and grain cooking times
and suggested rice/
water ratios, see the
"Rice/Grain & Water
Measurement Tables"
on pages 10-11.

11.
· For softer grains, simply add more water.
· This chart is only a general measuring guide, grain/water measurements may vary.
· Cooking times are approximate. Altitude, humidity and outside temperature will
aect cooking times.
· Rinse grains before placing into the inner pot to remove excess bran and starch. This
will help reduce browning and sticking to the bottom of the pot.
· When cooking barley, you must use the Delay Timer for 4 hours in combination
with the Brown Rice function. The additional soaking time will ensure good flavor
and texture.
· For best results when cooking barley or bulgur, let both grains sit on Keep Warm
for 10 minutes before serving.
