    Does the cooker count down in time on the rice programmes or does it just show lines whirling round like my existing Yum Asia does?
    Also with the porridge setting can you use milk? My Yum Asia says not too because of possible boil over. Thanks so much.

    I saw a video from Mike Matsuno about Japanese high tech rice cookers. In Japan and all over Asia these rice cookers are quite normal. According to him, the Fuzzy Logic type rice cookers with traditional heating elements are a thing of the past in Japan. Now, everybody want the Induction Heating, since it delivers better results because it can heat the rice more evenly and it has more control over the cooking process. The biggest brand is Zojirushi, but they're insanely expensive, especially the high end ones. For people in Asia, where they eat mostly rice, it's not strange to invest so much money in a rice cooker. That's where Yum Asia cleverly jumped in by making Zojirushi 'inspired' rice cookers for a reasonable price.

I have severe chronic bowel issues and I can only eat very soft and fluffly rice. I´m looking for a kitchen tool,machine where I can cook soft rice in bulk (300-400g raw weight) I appreciate every tipp or suggestion or a review if the yum Asia bamboo rice cookers are a helpful tool for cooking really soft rice without texture but not total mush. thank you very much for your valuable time and help Best regards, Helmut

    I received mine today and there’s a noise coming from the front of the rice cooker. I haven’t used it yet but just out of the box, there’s what sounds like a loose screw noise from the digital screen? I’m from the UK. Stickers still on and everything. Removed the inner bowl along with the plug and stuff to ensure it wasn’t any of that. It’s definitely a loose inner component, sounds like a screw. A rattling noise is how I’d describe it

      @YumAsia Před 6 lety +8

      If you mean a stainless steel outside, we have found our own brand rice cookers are outselling the stainless steel Zojirushi rice cookers by a lot. If you mean a stainless steel inner bowl, these are not good for rice cooking - rice sticks to the bottom of a stainless steel bowl like glue and means you have to soak the bowl to get the rice off and there is a lot of waste. This is why we opted for a safe and healthy ceramic coating on the inner bowl which the rice does not adhere to during the cooking process.

    • @martinj1204
      @martinj1204 Před 6 lety +2

      Yum Asia at least stainless steel gasket and steam vent would be perfect together with a ceramic inner bowl. hope you guys will achive this like cuckoo has done!

    • @YumAsia
      @YumAsia Před 6 lety +5

      We will consider this for future rice cooker models. However, as the inner lid/gasket and vent is a part of the rice cooker that doesn't come into any contact with the food, the additional cost for producing the inner lid and vent in stainless steel would increase the costs of the unit as a whole by a significant amount. We considered this and found it to be an unnecessary addtional cost to customers.

    • @martinj1204

    Would you recommend this one over the Sakura? I've been looking at the Zouj's and these two, but can't quite decide which. I am a single person/student but budget is not really an issue, I just hate not getting the real deal immediatly so I would look to never upgrade unless it broke :-) You reckon the Bamboo does the job as well as/better than the Zouj? Any insight would help greatly as there are very few comparisons out there.

    It's a pity this review didn't answer the most important questions for me. I am very particular about hygiene and therefore the ease of cleaning both the inner lid as well as the top lid are what I was looking for. All the rice cookers I have had were designed badly despite their price. There was always some groove here or there where food would get stuck and this happens when the pot is used at its supposed capacity. So a 4-cup cooker for instance would leave whitish layer of rice and water on the bottom and top of the inner lid and on the inner side of the top lid when used with exactly 4 cups of rice. The top lid is often designed with rubber baskets and especially where these meet the metallic parts are grooves which get clogged over time and gets harder and harder to clean. Also, the inner lid frequently has some design issue that leaves gunk trapped in places that are hard to reach. This would get worse if you cooked anything other than plain rice. What I really wish to know is this: How easy is it to clean and if there are places where food would get stuck.

    This rice cooker is still no good enough. The one thing I hate about all these cookers is that no matter how expensive they are, they almost always comes teflon coated. Believe it or not, researchers has actually detected teflon in human blood! Furthermore, after a few years of use, they starts flaking away and then exposes the neuro-toxic aluminium metal underneath. Aluminium leaching from cookwares, especially with more acidic foods and at higher temperatures, has been implicated to have played a part in the development of Alzheimer's disease.
    The only rice cooker brand on the market that I know of at present that uses stainless steel bowl seems to be the Buffalo brand. That's a unique selling point for health conscious people and it seem like they don't have any competitions yet. Seems like either all the other manufacturers are still asleep or not too concerned for people's long term health. Hopefully more manufacturers will come to follow that "healthy" design trend for all rice cookers.
    I had to throw out a very expensive Tiger multi-function cooker just because the damn teflon had started to flake away excessively after about just 5 years of use; and it's not like I use it every day. What a waste that I had to buy another cooker because of one stupid teflon coated bowl. And they don't even make replacement bowls available to buy. Guess they want people to waste money on buying their newer models every few years. If only they had used stainless steel bowls like all the Buffalo rice cookers, it could easily last me another 10 more years. I'm sticking to Buffalo rice cookers from now.

      Hi Quantum, Interesting you say this about Teflon coatings which is why our Yum Asia rice cookers (Panda, Sakura and Bamboo) only have ceramic coated bowls with no Teflon. They are also BPA and PTFE free, very thick and hard wearing...you won't get any flaking of coatings with our Ninja and Joubu ceramic bowls. We do sell spares in the unlikely event that you do need a new bowl. Pure stainless steel inner bowls we found don't go well with rice grains when cooked as they stick like glue to the surface. With our ceramic bowls you only have to lightly wipe with a damp cloth after cooking to get the bowl clean.
