Under normal circumstances, it takes 3 minutes to steam 2 kg of rice in a rice cooker, and the power consumption is .25 degrees. If you steam rice directly with hot water, it will take 2 to 25 minutes, and the power consumption is only .2 degrees. So, steam the rice once for about 2 to 3 minutes.

If it is found that the time of steaming rice is prolonged, it may be because the rice cooker has been used for a long time, and oil stains and dirt will form a yellow-black coke film on the bottom surface of the inner pot and the surface of the electric heating plate. This kind of coke film makes the bottom of the pot and the surface of the electric heating plate not contact well, which reduces the heat transfer efficiency and thus prolongs the cooking time. The correct treatment is to clean the dirt on the outer surface of the inner pot and the electric heating plate. After cleaning, heating time will return to normal.
