Traditional rice cookers use binary logic. 0 or 1. On or off. Or more accurately: "Cook" (full power) or "warm" (low power).

Traditional program: if temperature is below 212 F then keep on at full cook power, if temperature is above 212 then switch to warm.

Usually this "program" is implemented with a mechanical computer consisting of a magnet which is calibrated to lose its magnetism at a precise temperature (the Curie point) and trigger a switch.

Fuzzy logic just means not binary on or off, but can adjust to a range of power outputs.

Fuzzy logic program: beginning of program ramp up to full power to bring water to boil, once at boiling then reduce power to keep at rolling boil, once at steam temperature maintain heat using PID controller to consistent steaming temperature, after timer complete and temperature above steam level switch to keep warm temperature.

Usually this program is implemented with a microcontroller running a software program that reads from (possibly several) temperature sensors, sometimes also a pressure sensor, and a timer.


Edit: for the record, I personally prefer basic rice cookers. The only thing that's really nice about the fancier models, in my opinion, is the timer function but I have a bunch of smart plugs available so I just plug the basic rice cooker into that and that sorts that (I do the same thing with my coffee maker).

I didn't realize rice cookers were such a rabbit hole. There are three 6-cup CUCKOO rice cookers on sale now.

On Amazon, there is the iMac one (CR-0655F) $120 down to $70, the normal looking white one (CR-0675FW) $130 down to $75, and Costco has a similar one (CR-0661F) $100 down to $80.

Can anyone advise if I'm missing any major pros and cons? The website isnt much help and tough to see if any features or extra tools make one a stand-out deal. (Though you don't get the 10% back from Prime if you buy from Costco).

Going by his logic, putting anything in the fridge is bad from a "food safety" perspective. Add some water, and reheat/re-steam the rice to a high temperature, and you'll be fine. That's what I do.
Reheating rice can be tricky because the poisoning is due the toxin made by the bacteria when the rice is left in "warmish" / countertop environment. And this toxin is heat stable so reheating won't help. Is recommended to put you leftovers in fridge when they are still lukewarm. Additionally properly cooled / frozen rice has great health Benefits in that it converts to more resistant starches which decreases glycemic index and becomes a good prebiotic. My 2c

The non stick on these is genius. Never seems to wear out and the rice never sticks to it. So easy to clean. Perfect rice every time.

Just imagine how much better the induction and pressurized rice cookers perform. I have a cheap rice cooker that I have been using for years with fuzzy logic... compairable to this model. TO me... next year or an amazing deal will get me to by the newer ones with the better tech.

I've had one since 2023 and I really like it. It's much better than the cheap rice cookers. We've made rice, pasta, couscous etc and everything comes out perfect as long as you don't add way to little or to much water.
quinoa? how long does quinoa take to cook /post cook total time on these?

Many different harmful toxins are produced. They cause in particular diarrhea and vomiting. One is cereulide, very characteristic to fried rice syndrome, and is a strong emetic toxin (causes vomiting). Onset is within a couple hours of ingestion.

If you have a good immune system you will typically recover in a day or two. Drink plenty of water.

Not sure why everyone is so focused on this in this thread, just toss any rice that has been left out more than a couple hours. Same goes for almost any other cooked food. Most basic common sense ever.

Sounds like a concern for only the most dedicated of hypochondriacs out there. I've eaten reheated leftover rice many, many times, and I've never gotten food poisoning. I'm more concerned about food safety and poisoning when buying a burrito bowl from Chipotle, than I am about leftover rice.

P.S. I've even been so lazy, negligent, and irresponsible, as to not put rice in the fridge in a timely manner on occasion, and I still ate that literal biohazard afterwards. Still never got food poisoning. Just a friendly reminder to keep into perspective the fact that human beings have immune systems for a reason, and not literally every germ or microbe that you're exposed to will kill you.

Besides the fact that refrigerating rice is not great from a food safety perspective.


We have this model - I bought it cheap used a few years ago. It's been great so far. I just do however many cups of rice, then the same number of of cups of water and add an additional half cup of water. Perfect every time.

If we have extra I just leave it warming in this for a day or two with no significant loss in quality.
3 cup variant of cuckoo is the best if you want freshness of rice to last beyond 4-5 days. Less empty space contributes to better thermal.
