one or two cups of white rice takes 1 hour either way. Brown rice never done it. Nice machine and quality!

yes but you need to soak the rice grains in water for a couple of hours and then make sure you have enough water because brown rice requires a little more water

not long - I only use brown rice - I think it takes about 25 minutes. I add extra water so it doesn't stick. Also a 'cup' is only about 2/3C. I love, love, love this. I don't have to sit and watch, I use it for everything - amnrath, millet, Zatarain, and on and on!

It does cook brown rice just fine but it takes about 45 minutes compared to 20 for white rice. I haven't cooked white rice in so long I don't really remember how long it takes. I cook brown rice several times a week. Usually with vegetable or chicken broth.

I make brown rice often in this steamer. One cup of rice to 1 1/2 cups water. I do not soak the rice beforehand. I use the other two tiers to steam baby carrots, usually, and set the whole thing for about 50 minutes to an hour. It all turns out perfect.

Hi, I've only cooked brown rice, 5 cups at a time, and it takes 35-45 minutes.

We cook our brown rice this way: 1 cup of water in the hopper, two cups of rice in three cups of water in the bowl. At the end of the cycle it's still just a bit too wet, but we pop a lump of butter in at that point, and leave it in the warming mode for 10-20 minutes while cooking the rest of dinner. When it's time to eat, it's perfect.Before this cooker, we had one of the fancy fuzzy-logic computerized cookers. I think this one does a better job, really.

Brown Rice will take 1'25" to 1'35". Gaba Brown will take 3'10" to 3'15". Germinated Brown is 50 minutes to 1 hour.

I think about 15-20 minutes...I don't have my book with me right now, but I do know this. The rice comes out perfect!

Haven't really timed it, but white is about 20 minutes and I cook a lot of brown rice and it seems to take about an hour. That is what I plan for when preparing my meals. Absolutely LOVE this rice cooker!

I'm not great with details but I believe it takes 30-40min for white rice and 45min to 1hr for brown rice. Also, I use equal parts rice and water so the rice doesn't turn out mushy. :)

no. if brown rice takes longer than white rice then add a little more water. Ratio of rice to water determine the cooking time.

I cook mine 14 min. high pressure. Not the rice cooker. It is a bit moist at first, but let it set a while. 2 to 1 ration.

The measuring cup used to measure dry rice has a liquid capacity of 3/4 US cups. I suspect that it produces 1 cup of cooked rice. The instruction book recommends soaking the rice before cooking, 2 hours for brown rice. It also recommends warming the rice for 15 to 30 mins after the cooker switches off. This requires manually switching to warm. You may wish to purchase a cooker with an automatic warming switch. Then the rice will cook and stay warm without further attention from the chef.

About 30 minutes. And then it suggests you let the rice sit for about 10 more minutes to let the steam escape. You can also use the vegetable steamer while cooking the rice. You just wait till the rice is nearly done and put the veggies in about 10 minutes before the rice is done. I make a mixture of white and brown rice together. Then pour all the rice and the veggies into a skillet and add whatever sauce or broth or egg mixture. I love this cooker.

Yes. I only cook brown rice in mine.I cook a cup of brown rice once a week/every week. Cooks it wonderfully. The cooker has held up nicely. Would highly recommend!

Once the rice cooks, you can leave it plugged in, and it will keep warm for up to 12 hours - white rice usually cooks in 20 mins and brown rice in 40 mins. There are different options for cooking rice, soups etc but there is no option for high or low
