Spec me a rice cooker

[monkeyspank]

Have a panda mini and can’t get the rice to be fluffy loose grains, I have tried around 6 different brands and also stir break it up after rice has finished any help on this using the supplied scoop and adding water up to the mark?

I make this quite often and the rice stays separate like you describe. Probably toasting it in the oil in a frying pan first...

seems not to say whose rice cooker they use ?
wondering if it's this one - had recently seen video and the tech is interesting (and explained to me why I couldn't make breakfast porridge oats in one)

Btw, when you rinse the rice, there is some “scrubbing” action going on right? Just to remove some excess surface starch.

If not, do that and still wash until water runs clear.

I rinse and swirl the starchy water empty and repeat til clear

Rub them against each other. With both hands like you just clapped.

I think I have been convinced by this thread to buy a rice cooker.

Is there a significant difference between the Yum Asia Panda Mini Rice Cooker and the Yum Asia Sakura Rice Cooker?

Portions and some features, like some has a cake feature.

But they will all do White Rice.

It's just a light scrub/rub, not too much. It removes more starch than merely rinsing.

This dude is only doing it with 1 hand but for a brief second you can see he rubs it between his palm/fingers.
