Early Autumn - Apple and Cinnamon

New VapeSafe Early Autumn eLiquid.

Early Autumn - Apples and Cinnamon flavored eLiquid evokes memories of the beginning of fall. The feel of the warm autumn sun on the skin. The sight of vibrant hues of amber and crimson leaves hanging in gently swaying trees soaking up the light. The rustling sound of the breeze slipping through the tree branches tugging and teasing the remaining leaves into releasing their hold and floating downward. The laughing children raking the leaves into piles and then running and jumping into the soft, luscious piles scattering the leaves again. The delicious smells of baking apple and cinnamon pies wafting through open windows. These are the sights, smells and tastes of Early Autumn.

Early Autumn eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of Autumn no matter what season it is. Early Autumn eLiquid is flavorful combination of apples and cinnamon. As with all of the VapeSafe eLiquids, our mixtures are designed to produce nice, heavy vapors and the most succulent flavors. Try Early Autumn eLiquid today!

Summary: "Perfect rice, but slow"

If you're only making rice to put into a casserole or bury under some canned topping, this unit will be overkill. OTOH, if you stock four or more different types of rice in your cupboard and/or want your rice done just perfectly, this is probably the unit for you. One caveat is that this unit is SLOW. You'll get that perfect cup (note, their "cups" are really about 6oz, not a full 8oz) of rice, but it may take an hour. Using the timer, planning ahead - no problem. Last minute meal that you want done in 25 minutes - not so good.

The only other major issue seems to be the (soldered in) battery. I have read threads that recommend always leaving the unit plugged in, ostensibly to reduce the battery charge/discharge and hopefully extend the battery life. I'm only a year in on the unit, but will report back in a few years if this strategy helps/hurts.

Otherwise, the units works just great and truly makes perfect rice (great steel cut oats as well).

Summary: "Fabulous Rice Cooker"

I bought this rice cooker one year ago and use it at least 4 times each week. I am totally satisfied. In fact, I recently bought this same rice cooker for each of my two sons. We cook a variety of different rices--brown, wild, jasmine, sushi, sweet--and also quinoa. We have never been disappointed. It does take longer to cook the brown rices and quinoa in the rice cooker than on the stove but the results are far superior and the clean up is way easier. I had a couple of cheap rice cookers in the past and ended up throwing them out--there really is no comparison with this Zojirushi.

Summary: "Finally find a way to cook oats porridge"

I bought this item a few years ago to replace another model of Zojirushi rice cooker. But at first, I couldn't figure out how to cook oats properly with it. There were too much water spilled at the foundation of the cooker. I used the option for "porridge". If I used much less water, it didn't spill, but the porridge was so thick that I have to add water to cook it on the oven after it was done.

The manual isn't helpful to solve this problem. A couple of weeks ago, it suddenly came to my mind that maybe I should try "pre-washed" and porridge setting to cook the oats. Maybe it means lower power, so no spill. Yep, it worked!

I've been happy with different type of rice cooked by this cooker.

I would give it a 5 star, if the manual were more helpful to remind me to try "pre-washed" setting to avoid water spill.

Summary: "Best Home Cooked Rice!"

We have owned 3 rice cookers now, two with one button and now this one and hands down, this is the best one I have ever had. I used to consistently make "ok" rice with our old one, this one is perfect every time - even when you accidentally use the wrong setting!

A few notes:
(1) as several others have mentioned, the measure is a Japanese cup of about 6oz. My husband and I eat about that much between us, so it works great for us. That means this rice cooker feeds about 6, maybe 8 depending on the group.
(2) It has settings for various hardnesses and types of rice. This is great if you always make the same kind, but it does not reset to the first kind when you are done (so if you make white, then brown, then white again, you have to remember to change it).
(2a) Along the same lines, it does an amazing job with brown rice. I used to use an Alton Brown recipe for brown rice in the oven, but in the summer, I really don't want to run the oven to make 2c. brown rice.
(3) It comes with really detailed instructions for the rice, but really, just make sure you use the cups it came with, rinse your rice, and then fill to the designated line.
(4) The Zojirushi does take a bit longer than our old ones - maybe 45-50 minutes to do 2 scoops of cal-rose instead of about 25, but it is well worth it.
(5) The rice scoop that comes with it somehow manages to keep the rice from sticking to it. Clean up is also a snap since the bowl is non-stick and the inner lid detaches easily for washing.
(6) It supposedly does porridge!

I highly recommend this one (although if you live in the Chicago area, Mitsuwa had them on sale for ~$145 a while back).
