------------------------------------------------------------
Brown Rice
----------
This is a menu setting designed to cook delicious brown rice. In
order to cook hard rice bran and the rice inside, preheating time
is extended for better absorption of water, and is cooked at a
lower temperature to allow the rice to cook longer without
becoming mushy.
Sushi Rice
----------
Because sushi rice will be processed after it's cooked, it's
easier to handle when it is a little firmer. This menu setting is
very similar to regular white rice, but uses less water (adjusted
by the water fill lines) for a firm finish.
Mixed
-----
Mixed rice is rice cooked with additional ingredients and
seasonings. This setting extends preheating for better absorption
of seasoning. Also, the cooking temperature is slightly lower
than regular white rice, to avoid ingredients from boiling over.
Porridge
--------
Instead of cooking rice in larger as of water and risk
making it sloppy, use the porridge setting to cook fluffy
porridge. Cooking temperature is slightly lower than regular
white rice, to be cooked longer for soft texture.
Steam
-----
Steam your favorite foods. Steaming function can be lengthened or
shortened by adjusting time setting.
MICOM (Microcomputer) Technology
--------------------------------
Aided by microcomputer technology, this category of rice cooker
takes having rice on your menu from “occasional” to “serious”.
Basically, the microchip does all the thinking for you, as far as
adjusting cooking times and temperatures according to the type of
rice you are cooking, and timing the pre-soaking of the raw
grains and the final “wait” period during steaming.
MICOM allows the cooker to have multiple functions on its menu,
making it a necessity for any avid rice fan who wants to
incorporate rice into her daily diet.
How it Works
------------
Conventional rice cookers simply turn on and off in reaction to
temperature. The “fuzzy logic” of MICOM fine tunes this
adjustment to adapt to various rice types, such as white, brown,
sweet or porridge, which all has different cooking requirements.
The trigger to everything is the thermal sensor, a small round
button at the bottom of the inner body of the cooker. As the
inner pan’s weight rests on it and activates the sensor, it
starts the cooking process and keeps an eye on the temperature
and time.
