Not sure, my wife has cooked rice the night before and let it warm until the next day and never no smell. But not sure for any amount of time over that.

I have no idea. We don't normally use it as a warmer for rice. Asian people don't do it this way.

3 days are the longest we kept the rice warm. It don't smell but rice tends to be harder on the sides of the cooker. To avoid it just cook enough rice that you will consume for 2-3 days. Also be sure to cook rice correctly. Too much water will tend to smell since excess moisture might caused the problem.

About 3-4 days depending on what type of rice you use. I usually cook white thai jasmine rice with the waterfall logo or the 3 ladies.

Yes, it keep food warm. And tells you how long time has passed. I usually wait for 30 minutes after it finish rice cooking, so that any extrac steam gets dried up or consumed by the rice

I find that whether making one cup of rice or more takes my rice cooker 30 minutes. Except for black rice which is harder and that takes 1 hour total. After the first 30 minutes it automatically goes to keep "warm" mode. I reset the cooker again to cook for the extra 30 minutes. Cooker gives me time to chill in between or prepare the rest of my meal while doing its thing.

On average about 20- 25 minutes. It also depends on the amount of rice and water you put in the cooker. The more rice the longer, the less amount the less time. I love my cooker. It is awesome. Hope it helps. Good Luck!

White rice takes about a half hour while brown, wild, or black rice takes about 45 minutes. the beauty is, you set this up to cook while you are fixing dinner and it is ready when the rest of the meal is done! I have also found that if you leave the rice to "rest" in the pot for about 5 minutes before you spoon it out, the rice will not not stick to the bottom of the pot. yes it is a non-stick coating, but reality is it will stick unless you let it sit for a short while.

Nothing stuck to my pot! As soon as it goes to warm setting, I stirred/unfolded rice from bottom to top, close lid, unplug cord and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes.

The rice cooks in 20 to 30 minutes, think it depends on the amount cooking. Then it steams for ten minutes as recommended, I steam for five.

Yes, you can set how long you want your rice to stay warm. They do not reccommend keeping rice warm for more than 12 hours.

The package says 25 minutes and I've found this to be accurate. The 10 minute waiting period is crucial, otherwise you'll end up with soupy rice.

I wash the rice thoroughly and it cuts the strange smell and taste. Hope that helps if you have not done it already.

I usually cook brown basmati and I out that on the white rice setting, so depending on how many cups...for us between 30-40 minutes. Sorry I took so long to answer. Good luck.

Hi I normally prep my Zojirushi for my son at 7am. At 7am, the food is very very hot and by noon, the food is warm/hot.. so I would say that if properly prepped, food is warm for at least 5 hours.

yes, put rice in after it sits in the water for 8 to 10 hours. Works great.

I use it to keep my tea warm. After the prescribed two minutes in the microwave it is pretty hot, and the warmth gradually decreases over about 20 minutes.

The jumping of the switch does NOT mean that the rice is done-- one Tatung cup of water in the outer container will boil for about 15-20 minutes before it jumps, and then you'll want to leave it under "Keep Warm" for another 15-20 minutes, to let the steam slowly and thoroughly cook the rice inside out. Rice made this way turns out soft and noist, instead of getting dry and burnt on the bottom, as it often happens to other types of rice cookers.
