Though I have never cooked brown rice in a rice-cooker, the only way I ever
get good white rice using a rice cooker is to abandon my tendency to measure
the water, and use the markings on the side of the unit. I measire the rice
portion, rinse the rice until water runs clear, then add liquid up to the
mark shown for the amount of rice I used. When it makes the change from
"cook" to "warm", I fluff the finished rice with a pair of large, stiff
chopsticks and replace the lid. Did you read the instructions for making
rice with your particular rice-cooker?
