Default Oatmeal in a slow cooker?

I cook a week's worth of steel-cut oats in a slow cooker. I use one cup of
oats to eight cups of milk, put the cooker on HIGH for about 15 minutes,
then turn it to LOW for about eight hours. Best oatmeal I've ever had; it's
almost like tapioca pudding.

I used to cook rolled oats similarly, but they're not as delectable as
steel-cut. They also don't take as long; they'd finish cooking after about
90 minutes.
