Does anyone have a Zojirushi NS-PC10 rice cooker? I need to know the
volume of the cup it comes with.

Thanks!

Just use 1 cup of rice to 2 cups water...adjust water up or down by tbsp
till it is either sticky or not sticky (to your perference more water
equals more sticky). I am talking most white long grain rices here. Don't
let that little cup throw you off and confuse you. The first batch will be
good...after adjusting 3 or 4 times it will be excellent.

That's just the problem. I've been experimenting with ratios ever since
I lost the cup three months ago. After something like 15 tries I still
haven't pegged it.

Read the rice package it has basic ratio right there. But for your personal
prefference you might need 1 or 2 tbsps of water more...or less. depending
on wether you like sticky or not so sticky rice. Usually if it is a long
grain white rice it uses 1 cup rice to 2 cups liquid (water). The rice
cooker doesn't change the rice or how it absorbs water. So follow the
instructions for ratios on the rice pkg (this time). Next time try one tbsp
less water for less sticky or 1 tbsp more water for more sticky. and go
from there. (write it down.) If 1 tbsp either way works for you great then
stop. If not try 2. but usually 2 is about as far as I would go.

After that try adding some (say a tbsp) of chicken stock powder (less salty
than a cube). Or of beef stock powder or veggies stock powder.


This works just fine in my cheapie Black and Decker Rice cooker so it
should work in your more $$ model. So get out your standard 1 cup 8 fluid
oz measuring cup and make the rice.

The volume of the measuring cup for my Zojirushi rice cooker is about seven
fluid ounces (7/8 of a cup), or just under 200 ml. Only thing is, the model
number is NS-MYC18, so the cup size might be different from yours.

The rice cookers are calibrated for use with the included measuring cup so
it's a lot easier. Also 2:1 is *not* correct for all kinds of rice - for
example jasmine is perfect with a 1.5:1 ratio in my cooker. I have owned 2
rice cookers, although not the brand/model mentioned, and in both of them
the measuring cup was about 7/8 of a standard cup.

I think that the little cup is 6 oz. It says in the Ultimate Rice
Cooker Cookbook if you have a copy.

I have a Tiger Brand and it works the same as a National so I assume a
Zojirushi would be the same. The cup that comes with the rice cooker
is approx. 6.5 fl oz. or exactly 2 dl (200 ml).

With my rice cooker, if I take three cups of rice and put them in the
bucket then add water to the level three, I get perfect rice.
