Make every rice type imaginable with a Zojirushi Rice Cooker
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 amounts 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.

Great cooker, but doesn't have the newer plastic handles of the neuro fuzzy and the removal for the lid is a little different.Overall worth the $50 savings over the neuro if you can get it for that much better a price.What else to say? It's a Zoji. I'm no connoisseur - that's specifically WHY I like Zoji - I can turn off my brain and follow instructions.

Satisfied with the purchase, quality rice cooker, useful features, easy to clean, cooks rice perfectly, made in Japan. Only con is that it doesn't include a rice paddle holder so I had to purchase an after market one to attach to the cooker. I'd purchase it again if need be but I'm hoping it will last for many years of weekly use.

I've wanted a Zojirushi rice cooker for several years, but wondered if it really was THAT much better than the inexpensive Chinese-built 10-cup cooker that had been in regular weekly use for the last 10 years. Short answer: yes. It's THAT much better.My old rice cooker was a very basic, made in China, 10-cup flip top rice cooker. The non-stick coating in the rice pot was very thin and fragile, and from day one, there was always some overcooked, crunchy rice in the very bottom of the pan near the heating element. I learned to immediately uplug the rice cooker as soon as the rice was done, or even with a minute or two showing on the timer. With the Zojirushi, there is nothing tricky or fussy. I mostly cook medium grain (sushi) rice, and use the recommended water/rice level as indicated on the inside of the rice pot. It's important to remember that "one cup" of rice is not the 240 ml US cup standard, it's the 180 ml rice industry standard, so use the cup that's included with the purchase if you use the water level indicators on the pot. It's also a good idea to let the rice rest for five minutes after the cook time has concluded to allow the moisture to evaporate a bit, and the heat to distribute evenly through the cooked rice. This resting period is not mandatory, but it's become a habit for me, and I just factor it into the meal prep time. After the resting period, fluff the rice with the included paddle, and it's good to go. There are two warm settings on the Zojirushi, I generally use the lower setting.I don't need to use the rice cooker for anything other than rice, and indeed, all I really use are the white/brown/quick and warm settings. The quick rice feature is nice if you really are in a hurry, but I'd suggest you avoid using it unless necessary. The white/sushi rice settings cook perfectly. Every grain, every time. The rice is tender, and never gummy. According to Zojirushi, micro computer, fuzzy logic tech allows the rice cooker to make cooking temp and time adjustments on the fly to insure perfectly cooked rice.This model, the NL-AAC-10 is Made in Japan, unlike many cookers in the Zojirushi line. That is important to me, but it does come at a price. Less expensive models, made in China, are also available, and likely work just as well, so you may choose savings over the country of origin. Overall, I'm extremely happy with this purchase, and can attest to the fact that it really does produce a superior cooked rice as compared to my older, basic rice cooker. I could have saved over 100 dollars by buying another cheap, generic rice cooker, but we do a LOT of Asian cooking in our house, so really felt that the upcharge was worth it, especially after we've used this one for a few weeks. Highly recommended

I had my eye on this rice cooker for two years. When I moved out on my own, I pulled the trigger and bought it.It's everything the reviews say it is. Easy to use, a lot of directions provided to give help, and it's all in English so need for confusion.It keeps rice warm for up to 24 hours (anything beyond that isn't recommended. Around the 20-22 hour mark you can tell the rice declines in quality).It also has it where you can prepare your rice the night before and when you get up, you have prepared rice. Just make sure to set the time for right as you get up so you can fluff it! Otherwise, not as good.Make sure you wash your rice or you'll see the starch along the inside.All the lines make having to worry about water measures no issue. Whether you use short grain rice or long grain rice. I've only use short grain so far myself, but I've just run out so soon I'll be trying long grain in it.Well worth the high price point and certainly a buy it for life item as people say.

I first heard about this rice cooker from the YouTuber Uncle Roger. He was saying it was the best rice cooker. So when my old one died, I knew exactly which rice cooker I wanted.This rice cooker is the best rice cooker I have ever used. Perfect rice every time!

Bought this rice cooker 1 month ago. Love it. excellent for cooking porridge which came out nice and soft. The timer to set when to finish cooking is an excellent feature. This cooker is made in Japan and the finish is very good. A similar cooker with only slight difference in features, model NS-TSC10, made in China is $70 cheaper. I think that would have been a better value, but I do not have that product to made any direct comparison.Definitely would recommend this cooker, but look at the alternative model NS_TSC10 as well..
