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.

I only cooked rice a few times in this cooker, but it delivers perfect rice!

di facile comprensione ci vogliono alcune prove per capire quanta acqua mettere per il tipo di consistenza che ci piace. Il morbido si deve mettere senza la griglia

J’aime bien ce cuiseur, cuit très bien le riz avec les légumes à la vapeur au même temps

Concernant les doses de riz, une dose est suffisante pour deux adultes normaux. Donc 5.5 doses en théorie on peut aller jusqu’à 11 personnes pour du riz en accompagnement.

Have used this for both white and brown rice in the YumCarb setting – rice comes out perfectly and tasty- seems less filling this way, too. Just remember to allow extra time to cook ( 40 min for white; 60 min for brown) at YumCarb setting. Nice product!

Yes, it’s obviously more expensive than some of the basic rice cookers you can buy, but I love this one, particularly for brown rice, which comes out great. I’ve tried the carb setting where the rice is boiled then steamed which claims to reduce the carb content by 25%. No idea if that’s true, but the texture of the rice was spot on, so will use that setting going forward. Haven’t experimented with porridge etc as yet.

Facile d utilisation pour du riz simple mais pas trouvé le bon dosage car les grains étaient collés légèrement entre eux au fond mais pour ma 1ere fois c était mangeable. Ça change de la surveillance à la casserole. J ai pu faire autre chose et le nettoyage est d 1 facilité un coup de lavette humide.
