Kumo has two different types of capacity. It is a 1 litre, 5.5 cup rice cooker or 2.2 litre multicooker.
Let’s take the first two capacities – 1 litre or 5.5 cup. Rice cooker capacities are always referred to in litres or cups. Kumo is a 1 litre capacity rice cooker and it can therefore cook 5.5 cups of uncooked white rice or 4 cups of uncooked brown rice – each cup is 180ml/g. So, if you want to cook 1 cup of white rice, that would be 180g or if you want to cook the full capacity of 5.5 cups, that would be 1kg of uncooked rice.
The third capacity of 2.1 litres refers to Kumo’s multicooking capacity. This means that the inner bowl can hold a maximum of 2.2 litres of liquid.
You can learn more about the capacity of our rice cookers in the following pages:

Rice has reached a new level with this 😉 I’m not very fond of the carb setting, as in… it may be better for me, but having tasted the regular rice the appliance makes, I’m spoiled now. It can cook a lot of rice, I think plenty for 4 people.

This rice cooker is brilliant. Just the right size on my counter top. I literally use it everyday and if you follow the instructions which suggest you measure accurately, your rice comes out perfect every time. I cook long grain and sushi rice mostly and these both come out perfect. Fantastic product and easy to clean. Doesn’t make a mess during cooking either.

I bought this rice cooker as I needed to cook 2 batches of brown rice, everyday, to mix in with my dogs venison and goose meat (I kid you not! She has to have a specialist diet. I’m not just some crazy dog owner who treats their dog better than their humans, honestly :D).
I was not going to stand and watch rice in a pan 2 hours a day, so this seemed like the perfect solution.
I can set it up, set the timer and rice is ready when I need it.
It cooks the rice so well and is so tasty, that everybody in the house suddenly wants rice.
This little machine does an excellent job. It’s easy to use, clear instructions on measurements and quantities. It’s easy to clean and use it minimum twice a day and it just works.
Absolutely love it and would recommend it wholeheartedly.

Pour l’instant, nous avons encore un peu de mal à bien doser le riz et l’eau, mais nous espérons que cela viendra rapidement
