It varies to some extent. Water temperature, amount of rice, type of rice and altitude can change the exact temperature. If you just drop the rice in with water and start: Quick Cook: 27-39 Minutes Sushi: 40-55 Minutes White/Mixed: 40-55 Minutes Porridge: 55-65 Minutes Brown Rice: 80-100 Minutes If you use the timer setting the minimums are: Sushi: 55 Minutes White Rice: 55 Minutes Porridge: 65 Minutes Brown Rice: 100 Minutes Quick cook can get the rice done really quickly, but it isn't nearly as good. As for oats...I have no idea.

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!

Yes you can. I put one cup steel cut oats, 2 cups water and 2 cups milk. Cook 6-8hrs. Comes out perfect. Also, make sure you spray the liner with nonstick spray before you add ingredients.

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.

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

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.

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

For smaller amounts (0.5 Zoji cup) of steel-cut oats, I use 3 parts water to 1 part oats, soak overnight, and cook on the "white rice" setting. It comes out perfectly. Using the "porridge" setting yields very watery oatmeal, even when soaked overnight.Perhaps it's the larger amounts, like 1-2 Zoji cups, that need to be set on "porridge" to avoid boil-overs.

I don't use this particular rice cooker, but a similar one. I cook oat groats (whole-grain oats) using the "porridge" setting. Works fine (1/3 c. groats, 1 c. water for one person). Steel cut would also work on that setting, I believe. Give it a go.

Cooks white rice in average time. Brown rice ALWAYS takes longer to cook, but I don't recall that it took as long as 90. I love this cooker. Rice made here is delicious. And so many other meals can be made in this. Find a rice cooker cookbook. Very versatile machine.

I haven't been able to. Using as little as ¾ cup steel cut oats, on either brown or white rice settings, the water ALWAYS boils over, getting starchy water all over the top of the rice cooker and spilling onto the counter. I've determined a larger rice cooker is needed to make oats for 2 people. If others can do it, I'd love to know how.

I only cook brown rice (for dog food). I measure the rice first, put it in the cooker, then measure the water and put it in. Brown rice takes longer to cook than white rice. I turn the cooker on, set the "Delayed Timer" to "one", which is going to soak the rice for one hour then press the "Brown Rice" setting. I cook 4 c. water and 2 c. brown rice. At the end of 2 hours, the rice is done perfectly. What does the instructions say about cooking white rice? Just follow the instruction and it will work fine. I love my rice cooker and it makes my job of making dog food a lot easier. Hope this helps. :) I only cook brown rice (for dog food).

White Rice is about 40-45 minutes I believe. Brown is about 90-95 the unit automatically tells you when the rice is done and it is perfect every time as long as you use decent rice. if you use cheap Walmart rice it may end up being al dente style as it soaks up more water then most other rice.

6 cups mean cooked rice. And it takes 20 minutes to cook the rice and 15 minutes more to let it rest after cooking, regardless of quantity.

This cooks multiple types of rice ... white, sushi, brown, semi-brown, etc. It has markings as to which level to fill the water to, based on which type of rice you are wanting to cook. You can even do oatmeal (steel cut oats) and porridge.
