From AI:
"The CarbReduce steam basket reduces carbohydrates through a specialized two-step separation process during cooking. It physically separates the starch-heavy water from the rice, preventing the grains from reabsorbing it.
1. High-Temperature Starch Dissolution
Boiling: The cooker heats water to a precise boil to cook the rice.
Dissolving: High heat breaks down and dissolves the easily digestible starches (amylopectin) out of the grains.
Release: These starches leach directly into the surrounding cooking water.
2. Physical Separation and Draining
Perforation: The basket features tiny holes along the bottom and sides.
Isolation: The starchy water drains out of the basket into the bottom of the main inner pot.
Steaming: The rice finishes cooking via steam, suspended safely above the carbohydrate-heavy liquid."
Some people season with butter and/or salt or other things with it. But most don't if they plan on making enough that there are leftovers and the rice could be used for a different purpose in another meal.
Community Reviews
This Instant Pot rice and grain cooker is mainly valued for making rice with a carb reducing mode and a stainless steel cooking basket. The rice comes out well when the water lines are used, the rice is washed first, and the finished batch rests before fluffing. The 12 quart size also helps with pot in pot cooking and cleanup stays simple. The main cautions are that the carb reduction claim is disputed, the cycle can take about 40 minutes, and some batches can burn, undercook, or turn mushy, especially back to back. A practical pick if you want a large, easy rice cooker with extra features.
Common Questions (5)
The carb-reducing mode is disputed: some users report lower glucose spikes and better results with brown rice or basmati, while others say it does not remove carbs and mainly makes the grains absorb more water. A practical takeaway is that it may change how much rice you end up eating, but it is not a proven way to eliminate starch.
Use the water lines instead of finger measurements, and avoid back-to-back batches if you are cooking a lot at once because the unit can heat unevenly. For better texture, wash the rice 2-4 times, level it evenly, let it sit 5-10 minutes after cooking, then fluff and rest it again briefly.
One report says it burns the bottom badly enough that about half the batch has to be discarded, and another says a unit broke after about a year. Other users say it works fine for occasional rice use and can be a good value at the sale price.
The carb-reducing function takes about 40 minutes. That longer cycle is part of why it can produce better results for some rice types, but it is slower than a standard Instant Pot rice setting.
Yes. Pressing Cancel stops Keep Warm and fully turns the unit off without unplugging it.

This instant pot rice cooker probably makes a bigger difference if it works as advertised.
