- How fast can you make 3 cups of rice with the JBV-S10U rice maker from Tiger?
In my amateur video, you can see it takes roughly 30min to make rice under the "Quick" setting.
Nice bells and whistles...
1. Has a clock. There is a battery inside of it, so the clock is always running.
2. When the rice is almost done, it will show 3, 2 , 1 minutes left. It will finally beep a few times when complete and go to warm.
3. 5.5 cups of rice should be enough for a small family of 4.
4. you can carry it around like a bucket.
Unusual things...
1. There is no attachment to put your rice spatula. Instead, they give you a spatula tray that keeps the spatula upright... weird, huh?
Would I buy it again?
Hmmm... 30min to make rice is abit slow in my amateur opinion. I believe my old rice cooker did it in around 20min. Still, the rice on first try looked and tasted good.
Oh yeah.. verdict on the actual rice:
Pretty GOOD!

if you want your non stick pot to last a very long time, wash your rice on a separate bowl! after seven years, mine still has perfect and no scratch inside the cooking pot
thats a really good suggestion
I use the same rice and cooker. I was given it as a Christmas gift and my boys threw away the instructions 🤦 this video helped so much, thanks!! It came out perfect!!
We use the same rice and rice cooker. Add a little more rice and water under the line not over. Rice cones out really good.
This rice cooker is perfect! I use it only for me ruclips.net/user/postUgkxviiltW7NlHbp_VL_bLbIkbLAvILVhnia and sometimes me and my friend so the small size is really great for counter space since we never need to make all that much. I have been using it now for about 2 months and it still works perfectly. I use it for both rice and vegetables (better for harder vegetables like green beans and carrots, it made my broccoli way too smoosh-y for my taste). It keeps your rice on keep warm automatically which I really like, and I’ve used a few of the settings, flash rice, white rice, brown rice, and steam, and they all work super well for me, although I don’t like smooshy rice so I’ll usually use flash rice. It’s super easy to clean either in dishwasher or hand wash, and it’s pretty easy to get rice out of the grooves by where the container comes out. I assume this one will last me a long time but if I ever need another I will definitely be getting this one again!
Some tips:
1. A lot of people say rice is mushy. Problem is not with the rice cooker. Different brands of rice, even same kind of rice (like jasmine rice) subject to different level of water absorbance. It is due to a lot of factors like where the rice is grown, is the rice new or old (been stored a long time after harvested), etc. The rice cooker only gives a general guidance, and you just have to adjust for the rice you have. The more rice you have, the less additional water is needed. That's why it seems off more from the water level.
2. Need to wipe out any water outside the inner pot before putting it into the rice cooker.
3. Wash the rice in another container if you want to keep the inner pot for longer use.
4. Difference between the old-schooled one button rice cooker and the fancy rice cooker. The expensive rice cooker can deal with brown rice and mixed rice better and it can be slow cooker for meat or making porridge. The one button rice cooker can't do much about these.
5. Leftover rice I would just put it in the fridge instead of leaving it in the rice cooker. The next day I could just sprinkle a bit of water to make it moist, (sprinkle, not adding another cup) and warm it up again. Easy.
Thanks.
I'm surprised for $100 the rice cooker is so sensitive for plain white rice. Although as you said. For other modes it works better like brown or mixed rice.
Hmmm. If I knew this I would have gotten a simple $25 rice cooker. I've typically used inexpensive Chinese rice cookers and never experienced this until now
Can you please tell me why my Tiger rice cooker taking long time to Cook rice? Almost more than one hour. How to fix it?
Hi Rifath.
Unfortunately,.. when you use "Normal" cooking mode.. it's actually normal for rice to take this long to cook. For instance.. if you cook 5.5 cups of rice.. it will take about 1 hr.
Now.. you have 3 options:
1. Return the rice cooker and get a cooker that cooks normally (I heard that many japanese rice cookers take a LONG time to cook rice so that it can cook the perfect rice)
2. You can reduce the amount of water used in cooking your rice. My rice cooker usually makes rice on the wet side... so reducing the water might save you 5-10 min.
3. Finally, if you switch modes to "Quick"... then it might take about 30 min to make rice.
To switch to quick..
a. plug in your rice cooker
b. press the menu button until the indicator is right under "Quick"
c. Press Cook button.. hopefully the rice cooks in 30min,
My wife and I have talked about returning our rice cooker. I'm not a picky rice eater.. but to me this rice cooker has many negatives (that surprisingly people say is normal)
* slow cooking
* soggy rice or bad rice after a day or two
* no holder for your rice spatula on the cooker.
How is clean up? Is it true you cannot remove the top lid piece? Is it difficult to clean it, or does this not really matter? My old Tiger died and it was a simple automatic with switch so the kids did remove.
Lid***
Hi,.. I made a video of cleaning the top of the rice
ruclips.net/video/L400gHWlPko/видео.html
The top is easy to clean.
1. Just wipe the top.
2. There is a black top piece. It easily pulls out.. and you can wash this under soap/water.
3. Water falls from the top onto the sides. (on most inexpensive rice cookers.. there's usually a catch can... but this doesn't.)
So.. you need to get again a napkin or cloth and dry up the back sides so the moisture doesn't collect.
I know this is a year old, but my guy, Jasmine is NOT the same thing as plain white rice. In particular, it takes less water, so that's pretty much your entire problem
I bought this and too late to return but nothing responds other than the start button so then why all the options!?
I just got one that someone gave me and that’s my question… How do you navigate the buttons? Since you posted this a year ago, did you figure it out?
No help. Gave it away.
@@Diana-gx3tx well, my first batch just finished. I haven’t tasted it yet so we’ll see. Thanks for responding
As a person who doesn’t typically eat rice or should I correct that white rice that timer had me all the way fu🤬ed up it goes up it goes down I don’t even understand. Is it the clock I was so lost with that timer even in your video it just didn’t make sense to me. The only thing that makes sense to me is seeing that three minutes and when I see that three minutes, I’m gonna cry pure joy.
Yes... it shows the CLOCK TIME.
That's why I think this rice cooker is pretty lame.
When you use it... Plain or Quick mode...
You don't know when the heck it will finish until the last 5 minutes?
So sadly.. yes.. that's just the clock moving normally up during my video recording... and finally..
like magic.. after 20-40minutes... it lets you know.. that it will finish in a few minutes.
I hope that helps.
I was thinking this was a smart rice cooker for $100...
@@aleksdude I don’t know why, but when I seen it say quick feature, I thought I was gonna have one cup of rice 10 minutes as I’m preparing the other food. Nope cooks about as fast as one I already own
@@drodriguez3935 Quick is actually regular for normal rice cookers.
You're really buying this for the extra features... like cooking multigrain rice or porridge (ie like buying a insta pot pressure cooker).
In hindsight.. for those who just need a rice cooker.. and cooks it well.. get a regular rice cooker. Other rice experts have said I don't know what I'm talking about.. but I've never had these kinds of issues with my old $30 chinese rice cooker.
I returned mine and got the Zojirushi. Best decision ever. The difference is night and day.
I want to return mine.. but my wife bought it. Too afraid to bother her.
@@angrymathdude I found a tiger rice cooker at Goodwill and thought I struck gold.
Stupid thing took forever.
Got a Comfee rice cooker. Took maybe 30 minutes.
@@Adeline9418 I think it depends on what you need from a rice cooker. Like.. I use only 1 function... I just cook rice.
As some others have mentioned.. In the video I did not put enough rice.
First of all.. a simple rice cooker is not rocket science. Old school ones give you that leeway. I've NEVER had to measure out rice exactly.
Anyways.. if you don't follow the instructions to the tee.. the rice comes out soggy.
Also.. as you've seen.. the rice takes FOREVER to cook with a tiger rice cooker. Rice typically takes 10-15m to make. Never have I ever taken 30m+ to make rice... kind of feel like I should just make it on the stove to save time.
SMH. Man I was wondering what that half an plastic egg thing was! It's for the rice spoon thingy!
That's the first time seeing one of things too
Damn bro , just got one .. take long times
long time. My wife keeps on telling me to return it to costco.. but I'm fine with it being slow and also the rice going bad after a day or two if I leave it out.
I like this rice cooker, but when I use the heat preservation function, my rice is very dry, what am I doing wrong?
Oh.. I've never tried this feature. I think you might need to add a little more water before you eat it...maybe?
@@aleksdude Thank you👍
@@jenniferzhang7506 I actually wanted to ask.. how do you use the heat preservation feature?
Are you talking about when it's set to just warm?
If it's the warm setting.. yes.. over time it will probably dry the rice.
@@angrymathdude Our friend's rice cooker is another model, the heat preservation function will not let the rice dry, maybe I bought the wrong one
lol all the negative comments are killing me lol. You can never win with the internet.
I got this for my wife and I. We cant get Jasmine rice to cook aswell in this rice cooker as it did in the cheap and nasty rice cooker we have. Im a bit disappointed as I spent some good money on this, the rice always comes out sticky and a bit mushy, not fluffy. Is there any recommendation for cooking Jasmine rice in this?
Hi David, it's funny since one person replied to my video stating I put in too much water.
There are a few things you can try... and I totally agree... this rice cooker isn't as easy by default as a cheap $20-30 rice cooker. (but you're really buying it for the extra options... which most people don't use).
I always cook jasmine rice too! Here is what I've tried
1. After cooking it, you could wait 20min before you open it. This will allow the rice to properly cook (I know.. my old rice cooker I didn't have to do this.) I noticed with this rice cooker, the rice will dry out abit afterwards if you let it sit.
2. I've tried using less water then required. So if I added 3 cups of rice, I will only fill the 2.5 or 2.75 water line. I had to experiment a little
3. Maybe try the other settings to see if they cook better. By default, it's set to "Plain". I was thinking of trying "Quick" mode or "Mixed Sweet"
I agree.. the rice can come out mushy. It's abit sad.. I've left my rice out for a day. In my old cookers.. this was never a problem. But with this rice cooker,.. the bottom gets real soggy... and if I leave the rice out longer.. it gets slimy.
I've been cooking with less water then recommended. Or.. I've left the cooker to sit so it can dry out some of the rice after cooking. (i.e. option 2 and 1).
If you don't plan to cook brown rice or use the other features,.. I think it's probably just best to return and get a different rice cooker.
Hahaha.. the thing that annoys me the most about the cooker isnt' the rice. It's actually the fact that it doesn't have a place to put your rice spatula on the actual cooker. Instead,.. they give you a spatula stand... which I have NEVER seen before. Good luck! Rice shouldn't be this hard.
try adding less water. water level should be an inch above water
@@angrymathdude For Jasmine rice: 1 rice : 1.25 water. Steep rinsed rice in water for 1 hour prior to cooking. Cook on plain rice.
Jasmine is a pretty soft rice. We use Sona Masoori Indian medium grain rice. Even with some extra water than recommended for plain rice we get extra hard rice. There is no magic in this rice cooker. Probaly worse than a cheap rice cooker. I sent those guys a support request for my issue. That is rice super hard.
Thanks for the input. My kid complains the rice is too hard. Sadly.. maybe this model is a dud
This model is top drawer. I've never experienced any trouble - just choose the proper setting.
Japanese rice is softer and stickier especially short grain Japanese rice. Jasmine rice is hard compared to most Japanese rice. You need to add more water for Jasmine rice.
did you try other modes? Like multiple grain or brown rice or soft modes? If it has them?
What is the difference between this rice cooker compared to the usual ones many Asian people buy that are round with the retractable cord? Rice cooking wise. Seems like this one takes longer, no?
You can do the same thing with cheaper rice cookers... I think you're paying extra for the following reasons:
1. Japanese made rice cooker (I guess it's brand name??)
2. Cooking made easy. They have plenty of pre-sets to make cooking different methods easier (rather than manually doing it).
presets include:
a. Timer (timed cooking.. I think..?)
b. quick - I could have used this instead.. and I'm guessing my rice could have been done in 5-10min
c. plain (default setting)
d. porridge
e. mixed-sweet
f. brown
g. multigrain
h. slow cook
i. steam cook
You can see.. you get so many preset options.. (although.. I recall.. I'd cook brown rice the same way I cook white rice on my old asian rice cooker).
All in all,.. would I recommend this rice cooker? Hard to when you could just buy one for $15-30 and call it a day. But if you want to run the whole gambit of rice cooking options,.. then maybe this cooker is for you. Again.. my use case is 99% just cook white rice.
@@angrymathdudeI was getting flustered in my decision to go more expensive or the typical Tiger one I always buy. Thank you for the response. Much appreciated!
@@victoriousvic23 hahaha.. life has tough decisions. Buy though costco or amazon.. and try it out. Costco has a good return policy if you're not satisfied.
Good luck!
I just bought this from Costco 2 weeks ago and not impressed. I threw away the box already 😩 wonder if I can still return!
Worst rice cooker ever . I am getting mad with it . Sucks .
Didn't realize it was that frustratingly bad. Return it if you can.
Quick mode takes 25min.. I now always leave it sitting for extra 5min to get rid of moisture.
Also, I can't leave the rice in the cooker more then a day... It will get soggy and slimy. Never ever had this issue with old cheap rice cookers
Same experience.
Rinse and scrub your rice first, Uncle Roger is gonna have a field day with this ......
I heard about this uncle Roger guy who's an expert on fried rice. My bad. Next time I'll rinse and scrub
Some rices don't need rinsed
Not very satisfied with the results in your video, went ahead with a 30 dollar rice cooker instead. 👍 Thanks
To be fair... per many comments.. I did use too much water which made the rice soggy.
So there are two issues:
1. Rice takes forever to make.. 20-30min on normal mode.
2. Rice has to have EXACT amount of water... otherwise it can easily be soggy. Actually the reverse is true too.. it can easy be dry and hard.
The point of 2. is that normal rice cookers have a leeway. This is the first time I've experienced a rice cooker that needs EXACT measurements. note.. In the past I've only used inexpensive $30 rice cookers.
3. When the rice is wet/soggy.. forget leaving the rice in the rice cooker. It will go bad literally in a day. Again.. I've never EVER had an issue with leaving rice in my old rice cookers.
4. No holder for the rice spatula to be put on actual rice cooker (comes with an external stand).
5. Excess water does not have a catch tool. Instead the water drains to the bottom of the lid. Horrible design imo, since it means you need to constantly clean the bottom of the lid after each use otherwise it gets dirty easily.
Hi, does anyone here have the same problem with mine? We had this kind of rice cooker a year ago but the rice won’t last long unlike those cheaper ones. It gets bad in just a day even when plugged
It's a problem with this kind of rice cooker. It's cooking the rice with too much water.
1. There is no adequate catch can for the water to escape... the water accumulates at the base of the rice cooker.
2. Generally.. the rice cooker's estimate is off on my rice cooker. I often use LESS water.
A. My wife recommends using "Plain" mode over "Quick" mode. She says the rice isn't as wet.
B. I suggest using less water. So if you're using 3 cups of rice.. maybe use only up to the 2.5-2.75 level.
4 cups of rice, I usually fill to just past the 3 line.
Good luck. I haven't had the rice go bad since using less water. The rice lasts about 2 days..
Hi there. Thank you for responding 😊
Yes i also face same issue, the rice go bad after one day, how did you solve this issue?
Muzammil Alam hi there. I just followed aleks dude’s replied on my comment. It works with me. It might work with you as well.
@@random.shits. Sure Thanks.
Amang ka?
Who chews with their mouth open in a review video?
😂
People from asian countries
You put too much water
My rice cooker screen keeps flashing 00:00
The buttons on my rice cooker are non-functional the zeros keep flashing and won't let me change the time...
Have you ever measured anything before? those cups were 80% full, you filled the water over the line, and somehow you're surprised your rice came out mushy? Come on...
You waste to much water. I am hurt
