What are the nutrition facts once the rice is cooked in terms of cups? For example, is 1/4 cup dry equivalent to half a cup cooked?

I honestly do not remember exactly but I believe it is about that measure. It is an incredible product!

One serving is 1/4 cup dry, that will double in size when cooked. I used 1 cup on my first cooking which says 4 servings, thats a lot of Rice and Quinoa when cooked. It is very good left over but will limit my next cooking to the 1/4 cup because I add lots of things to mine.

1 cup of rice add 1 3/4 cups of water makes 4 servings which is about 2 1/2 to 3 cups cooked rice. For extra flavor, I add a little chicken or vegetable bouillon. This rice is delicious hot or cold.

Courtney, Yes 1/4 cup dry equal 1/2 cooked. I usually cook 1 cup at a time to use in salads or as a side, in soup, etc. Nutrition facts on package are per 1/4 cup - Cals. 120, 6 gms protein, 31 gms carbs, 3 gms sugar, dietary fiber 3 gms, 1 mg. sodium. Just multiply nutirition values by 4 for a cup. Calcium 4%, Phospherous 23%. Hopes this helps. I love this mix!

Very nicely if you stick with a ratio of 2 - 3 cups water to 1 cup rice (depending on how firm or soft you like it). We add a little olive oil and salt at a minimum - seems to cook better, and sometimes substitute veg broth for some of the water for flavor.

The ratio of uncooked rice per cup versus the final cooked amount is pretty standard whether on the stove top or in the rice cooker which is about 2:1 in volume.

30 cups uncooked rice is the amount of rice you begin with. After adding water and cooking the 30 cups, the rice expands/provides 60 cups of perfectly edible rice.

15 (US) pounds of rice will yield 69.78 (US) cups of cooked rice. A Japanese Gō cup is .76 of a (US) cup. So, 69.78/.76 = 91.82 Japanese Gō cups of rice is what you will get out of this bag of rice. That would vary if one (US) cup of this rice yields more than the traditional two (US) cups of cooked rice.

You can make as little as 2 cups. There are measuring lines on how much water or broth to use as well as a chart showing how much dry rice yields cooked rice.

I measured mine dry with a food scale and then cooked. You could use that and then take 1 cooked portion and translate it to cups or cooked weight if that's what you preferred.

4 cups of uncooked rice = 8 cups cooked.........almost to the top. Anymore would spill over.

If you cook plain rice then 1cup rice add 2 cups of water. If you add any fresh vegetables (carrots,beans etc) then add littlebit more like 1/2 cup for veg. to cook. Also don't cook on high as the water absorbs very fast and not enough water for rice to cook.

That is correct. Be sure to keep the rice cup that comes with the cooker. I just measured it out and it equals 3/4 c. dry measure, roughly. I tell you this in case you lose the plastic cup and notice that using a 1 c. dry measure gets you really dry rice using the hashmarks on the inside container for water.

I used 1.5 cup of water per cup of brown rice (depending on rice) and it worked great. It does take a lot longer to cook.

That means it will produce 60 cups of cooked rice using 30 cups of raw rice. We used ours last week for a company supper. We used 5 cups of raw rice and then filled it with water to the 25 line on the pot. After about 40 minutes we had some really good rice -- neither sticky nor too dry, but perfect from that at the top of the pot to the very bottom. This is the 3rd time we have used it for our annual supper and have had good results each time.

They mean 5.5 cups of (uncooked) rice. They just mixed up the word placement.

Oh Definitely! We only cook small amounts. To update my review there is some sticking to bottom. The appliance comes with one of those measuring cups. For 2 people we use 1.5 to 2 scoops of rice. Hope that helps!

We usually cook 1 1/2 - 2 cups of white rice. It only takes about 25-30 minutes, the water to rice ratio we use is 1:1

The most I have done is 2 cups rice uncooked yielding around 4 cups cooked. You could probably do another cup dry rice and it would hold it. It's not a large cooker, but works perfectly. I love it for small amounts.

I wouldn't sweat not having the cup just go by the ratio 1 cup rice to 1 cup water, slightly more water for brown rice . I use 3:1 water to steel cut oats, oatmeal or grits. And don't go over the maximum capacity of the cooker. I use whatever cup is handy.
