FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes. There isn’t any problem cooking half a cup of rice in this rice cooker. We made sure that Hotaru can do this successfully – half a cup of rice comes out as perfectly as when you cook the full 3 cup capacity of rice.

Hotaru has two different types of capacity. It is a 0.54 litre, 3 cup rice cooker or 1 litre multicooker.

Let’s take the first two capacities – 0.54 litres or 3 cup. Rice cooker capacities are always referred to in litres or cups. Hotaru is a 0.54 litres capacity rice cooker and it can therefore cook 3 cups of uncooked white rice or 2 cups of uncooked brown rice – each cup is 180ml/g. So, if you want to cook 1 cup of white rice, that would be approximately 180g or if you want to cook the full capacity of 3 cups, that would be approximately 900g of uncooked rice.

The third capacity of 1 litre refers to Hotaru’s multi-cooking capacity. This means that the inner bowl can hold a maximum of 1 litres of liquid.

You can learn more about the capacity of our rice cookers in the following pages:

UK Capacity Guide

In our years of selling Zojirushi rice cookers, we realised that all of rice cookers on the market in the UK, Europe or the USA only had teflon/similar non-stick material inner bowls.

Based on many customer queries and opinions, we took the decision to supply an inner bowl with a premium and durable 3mm thick ceramic coating.We call this type of bowl – JOUBU.

The JOUBU bowl is BPA-free and PTFE-free and is hard wearing. The inner bowl also has a special honeycomb structure to help the heat disperse evenly across the bowl’s surface. 

The level lines of the bowl are silk printed rather than stamped so they can be hard wearing but also easily read in low light conditions. 

Yes! To turn Hotaru OFF simply press the power ON/OFF button.

To turn Hotaru back ON simply press the power ON/OFF button again.

Yes, Hotaru  has a preset timer feature. You can set this for up to 24 hours in advance, so you can have yummy rice ready for you when you get in from work or lovely hot porridge on a cold, Winters day ready for when you need warming up.

To use the Hotaru rice cooker timer you set the number of hours for when you want the function to complete (not when you want it to begin cooking). 

For example – it is 9am and you want the white rice to be ready at 1pm. You would therefore set the preset timer for 4 hours. The rice will therefore be completed and ready to eat at 1pm.
