Review: Best appliance I have ever had! - I have had my rice cooker since 2020. If my house was on fire... I'm grabbing the rice cooker on the way out. My favorite kitchen appliance by far. It is so fool proof and effortless. Easy to use and easy to clean. It's been 5 years, I use it every week and I still love it. It looks new still and has never let me down, super durable. It makes perfect rice 100% of the time and keeps it perfect for 2 days! Buy it now! It's cheaper now than when I bought it so you have no excuses.
Review: Simple. Delicious. Consistent. - Love love love. This makes the best rice that has ever come out of my kitchen. Super easy to use, very easy to clean. Perfect size and price for my family of two.

## Features

- Compact: With its compact size and ability to cook as little as 1/2 a cup of rice or oats, this rice cooker is ideal for small families or couples
- Steel Cut Oatmeal Menu Setting: This is a special menu setting for cooking steel-cut oatmeal. The cooking flow is different than the regular Porridge setting and has a shorter completion time
- Brown or GABA Brown Menu Setting: The Brown Rice Activation (or GABA Brown Setting) activates brown rice by keeping the temperature inside the pan at about 104 degrees F for 2 hours. By activating brown rice, GABA, one of the nutrients contained in brown rice, increases its amount by 1.5 times as much as that contained in non-activated brown rice
- Long Grain White Menu Setting: This is a special menu setting for cooking long-grain white rice. The cooking flow is different than the White rice setting because long-grain white rice cooks differently than short or medium-grain white rice
- Easy to Transport and Hassle Free Storing: It can be transported easily with the help of a fold-down handle. The built-in retractable power cord makes moving and storing hassle-free

## Questions & Answers

**Q: * how much watt is it? what's the electric cost per use? per over 30 days if used 2x a day? at $0.2 kwh**
A: Here is your answer and the math is also provided! The cooker uses 450 watts per hour, max. 2 times a day would equal 900 watts used on average. 900 watts times 30 days = 27,000 watts used for a month. 27,000 watts = 27 kWh at your rate of .20 cents per kWh = $5.40 per month to cook approx. 180 cups of rice or $.03 cents to cook 1 cup of rice!! Hope this answers your question!!

**Q: I understand that these cups are actually equivalent to about 3/4 American cups.How much cooked rice does this make if filled it to the 2 cup line?**
A: : 3 cups capacity, however, the cup that comes with the cooker is smaller than American measuring cup. Its true capacity is 3/4 cup, which is 6 oz. So this rice cooker will take up to 18 oz of uncooked rice, not 24 oz by American standard of 3 cups. This is very misleading, and I wish the manufactures would not advertize that it cooks 3 cups of rice. In Japan, cup size may not be 8 oz, but in the US, we think

**Q: Is the P65 warning regarding to the teflon for the inner pot ?**
A: Thank you for your inquiry. In regards to Prop 65, the packaging material contains Styrene and the power cord contains BPA (neither of these would come in to direct contact with food or beverage). The nonstick coating on the inner cooking pan is N-Methyl Pyrrolidone. For further information, please go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov  
Please contact Zojirushi America Customer Service for further assistance by email at support@zojirushi.com

**Q: Can you make porridge (rice congee) in this newer version?  Old version has porridge setting, but new one replaced with steel cut oats setting.**
A: Not this make/model of the rice cooker, but the dark brown one (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EVHWNQQ?ref=emc_b_5_t) can.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Cooker With Just A Few Flaws
*by S***F on February 9, 2022*

Pros: Small Portable Retractable Cord Lightweight Multi-Menu Easy to Operate Cons: Not Cheap Internal Battery What I received in the package: 1 x ZOJIRUSHI NS-LGC05XB Micom Rice Cooker 1 x Internal 3 Cup Cooking Bowl 1 x Plastic Spatula 1 x Plastic Spatula Holder Accessory 1 x Plastic Measuring Cup 1 x User Manual This ZOJIRUSHI NS-LGC05XB Micom Rice Cooker product is an easy to use small rice cooker / warmer is approximately 9 1/8” x 11 7/8” x 7 1/2” and weighs in at roughly 5lbs 13.7oz. Interface is straightforward. You simply depress the [Menu] Button until you reach the type of rice you are cooking and then select [Start]. There are other functions but that is the very basics. It will play a little tune before it gets started the timer will count down until it is ready. This is a small rice cooker for the price but it does seem to cook a perfect pot of rice each time. There are a few features that I think are outstanding with this cooker. First, the 44” power cord is fully retractable. Making cleanup and storage easy. You should be careful not to pull the cord out passed the red sticker or it may not reel back in. Second, the cooker produces very little condensation that you have to clean up. It was easy to wipe down and store. All residual condensation drains directly into the pot, so not extra parts to clean. Third, the cooker is compact and relatively lightweight. The pot has a 3 cup capacity which is small for the price, but quite sufficient. I’ll be honest here, I have never paid this much for a rice cooker. I have gone through phases of using a cooker and then making rice manually in a pot. I decided recently to breakdown and get another cooker. I did a lot of research on models and brands and this one came out on top. This Micom model uses “fuzzy logic” to makes micro changes to your cooking time, etc depending in various variables to ensure your rice is cooked to perfection each time. I am Hawaiian and we are heavy rice eaters. Rice has been a staple on our table since I can remember. I cook rice practically daily depending on my needs. I have yet to be disappointed with this cooker. You just start it and leave it … much like any other rice cooker. The difference is the rice is perfect. It does have a delayed cooking feature if you want to prep it and cook it later. To do this you select the cooking program from the menu and then you select the time you want the rice to be completely cooked and ready. The Micom will process the information and determine when it needs to start to complete it at that time. Nice !!! I have tried cooking the following rice types: White Brown Basmati Jasmine Saffron While the unit does not have a specific Basmati, Saffron or Jasmine rice preset. I found that using the Long Grain or White setting with the proper rice to water ratio works just fine. Now to the only feature I don’t care for. This cooker has an internal clock which runs off of a clock battery that is integrated into the circuit board. The only instructions are when the battery goes out to contact the manufacturer for a replacement, which is not free. I am pretty handy and figure that when the time comes I will add a battery slot so you can replace the battery in the future without having to solder again. But that is a consideration you do have to mull over if you are looking at this model. As to replace this battery it “will” be something that the manufacturer will have to do if you don’t want to void your warranty or damage the unit if you are not skilled in soldering. Granted, these batteries typically last roughly 5 years so it should easily outlast your 1-Year Warranty. I feel this a money grab for a unit that is already quite expensive. I considered dropping it a star for making it a requirement to have to have the replaced by the manufacturer. The reason I didn’t is that it will still operate if you plug it in … it just will not retain the clock time and you will have to rest the time each time you plug it in. IF you unplug it. I can live with that. I am also not a huge fan of non-stick surfaces. However, that is common among all rice cooker brands. The unit also has a part, the power cord, that contain BPA. While it is not in direct contact with any cooking surface or food. The possibility does exist that you could cross-contaminate the cooking pot or food by plugging in the cord and not washing your hands before you begin to prepare the rice. Keep that in mind … The manufacturer offers a 1-Year Warranty from the original purchase date on this product. I appreciate you taking the time to read this. All in all, I have had a number of rice cookers in my lifetime … I wish I had known about this brand years ago. Please don’t let the price tag fool you. It is worth every Penney so far and will pay for itself inside a year with the amount of rice my family consumes as well as the time savings. While this is an excellent unit … there is still room for improvement here that would make it a true 5-Star appliance. It is so close to being 5-Star to me and is probably the best cooker I have ever owned. However, for those who don’t prefer Non-stick, the ability to purchase a ceramic pot would be a great option. Removing all BPAs from the product would be another and the ability to change out the battery is something that should be to be done without having to send in the unit. As the world continues to trend toward more healthy and sustainable choices … I hope this is something this manufacturer takes to heart. It must also be noted that all brands I have owned or researched suffer from the same flaws. Hope this information was helpful. [5 Stars] This product is made in China.
