I bought this as a birthday present for my Mom and she cooks only brown rice; she says it does fine!

Yes, but you will have to set a temperature for the rice to cook, unless you use the slow cook option. I really would not use this as my main rice cooker.

Yes it does steam brown rice, there are graduated marks on the inside of removable insert. One side is for brown rice opposite side is for all other rice

Yes it will cook brown or white rice. I don't know how long, but I assume it takes about the same time as white rice; depending on how much you are cooking... Usually a full pot takes a little less than an hour...

Hi Fernanda, yes it sure does. I only cook brown rice :) It works for quinoa, wheatberries, couscous, lentils, etc! To Health! :)

I just pour the rice and water together into one of the metal bowls. The rice usually takes longer than the other foods so I start the rice first. I make brown rice with this cooker often. I don't soak the rice first, I am really impatient when it comes to cooking.

I have not had the same problems. It sounds like you need a little more water. I have not had the chance to cook brown rice with it but with white rice i make sure the water level reaches the number inside the rice cooker that matches the number of cups of rice I use. I hope this helps.

Of course you can cook brown rice as well as white. The water-rice proportions are a bit different, as is the cooking time (brown takes a bit longer) but yes, you can.

There is a whole grain button I use to cook brown rice. The rice cooks very well, it just takes a while (~1.5 hrs for 1 cup rice).

My wife always cooks white rice. So we do not have that experience. I guess that cooker should work well with brown rice.

Have been successfully cooking brown rice in this wonderful gadget for months now. I add a enough more water to make sure it is soft enough for me. Didn't know there was a "red" rice. Thanks for the hint.

Hi, you can cook brown rice, but you have to make sure you soak the brown rice for a couple of hours first.

This seems to be possible. I went to the Presto Pressure Cooker website and they have recipes and instructions for both white and brown rice. Good luck!

You can make any kind of rice with a rice cooker. I cook brown rice in mine all the time. As long as you put in the right amount of water, the rice will turn out fine.

Likely you could, but my experience with it is that it would cook very unevenly. It is the best I have found for brown rice at two cups rice. One cup it tends to burn. White rice the same thing at one or two cups. Hamilton Beach Set 'n Forget Programmable Slow Cooker, 6-Quart is what I use for things other than rice. I really like it.
