Pressure IH Rice Cooker “炊きたて” JPV-G100


To be released on Aug. 1, 2023

Tiger Corporation (President: Yoshisato Kikuchi, Headquarters: Kadoma City, Osaka), a world leader in thermal control technology, will launch its new product “Pressure IH Rice Cooker “炊きたて” JPV-G100/G180″ on August 1, 2023. It focuses on the taste of both freshly cooked rice and rice that has been kept warm.

Launched in 2022, JPV-A100, a rice cooker that saves time and allows you to enjoy delicious rice over time for busy two-income families, has seen its sales grow approximately 10 times compared with the previous model*1 and has rapidly developed as an entry model for Tiger Pressure IH Rice Cookers. Sales of the JPV series (including JPV-B models) were also strong, achieving 125% growth*2 in total unit sales.

The successor to JPV-A100, the Pressure IH Rice Cooker “炊きたて” JPV-G100, has more ceramic coating powder in the outer coating of the inner pot to increase the far-infrared effect, thereby trapping the sweetness even more than the previous model and making the rice fluffy.

The rice cooker is equipped again with the UMAMITSUBUDACHI rice cooking program for cooking tasty and firm plump rice. This program was designed to reproduce the heating technique used when cooking rice in a clay pot with reference to the temperature control made possible with ceramic inner pot pressure IH rice cookers. It also has the TSUBUDACHI keep-warm program for keeping rice warm and fluffy even hours after the rice is cooked by keeping moisture in the cooked rice. While the model also incorporates ingenious ways to save time and effort on a daily basis, such as the Small Amount Cooking and Frozen Rice settings, it offers menus that focus on the taste of rice. The Slow Cooking and Quick Cooking settings cater to a wide range of needs, from elaborate waterless cooking to quick cooking, such as for those who want to easily cook delicious food with one rice cooker.

With the thermal control technology that we have been cultivating for years, we offer this product that brings out the good flavors of rice just like that cooked in a clay pot as well as time-saving cooking, thereby helping to spread joyous harmony throughout the world.

UMAMITSUBUDACHI rice cooking program for cooking tasty and firm plump rice

Aiming for springy rice that becomes sweeter the more you chew it, we have adopted the UMAMITSUBUDACHI rice cooking program for cooking tasty and firm plump rice. This is a rice cooking program inspired by the temperature control of our flagship model, the ceramic inner pot pressure IH rice cooker. The rice cooker lets the rice absorb water for a long time at a relatively low temperature and then rapidly raises the temperature to bring out the sweetness of the rice, thereby ensuring fluffiness while maintaining the springy texture of rice.

The graph is a conceptual image.

TSUBUDACHI keep-warm program for keeping rice warm and fluffy

Focusing on the fact that it has become more common for people to keep cooked rice warm at home in recent years, we have developed a keep warm program that ensures the cooked rice remains tasty over time. The steam sensor controls the rising temperature to contain moisture in the cooked rice while keeping it warm. By lowering the rising temperature, the excess steam from the rice can be suppressed. So rice cooked with the UMAMITSUBUDACHI rice cooking program retains an outline of the springy rice grains while being kept fluffy with minimal clumping.

[2] Fluffy and sweet rice produced with far-infrared effect More ceramic coating powder applied!

Far-infrared, five-layer, heat-sealing, ceramic coated inner pot is used. The far-infrared ceramic coating on the inside of the pot causes the rice and water to boil with fine bubbles as if the rice was cooked in a clay pot even with a metal pot and bring out the good flavors of the rice.
By increasing the amount of the ceramic coating powder used in the outer coating of the inner pot and enhancing the far-infrared radiation effect, this product traps the sweetness of the rice and ensures it is fluffy.

[3] There are only two parts to clean Hassle-free easy cleaning

You only need to clean two parts—the inner pot and inner lid. The parts can be removed easily. The dishwasher- and dish dryer-safe inner lid and steam cap are made with attention to ease of daily cleaning. A cleaning course is used to take care of any smells that remain after using rice cooking settings such as those for mixed rice and other cooking programs. It takes as little as 24 minutes*4 to minimize stains and smells inside the rice cooker, a place that is out of reach, with the power of steam5.

Other Features

Small Amount Cooking function that allows delicious rice to be cooked even in small amounts

The Small Amount Cooking allows you to cook delicious rice even in small amounts such as one to two bowls*.

The heating program developed in ceramic inner pot pressure IH rice cookers that brings out the flavor even in small amounts is applied to a metal pot. This is our solution for those who want to enjoy freshly cooked tasty rice in only the amount they need on that day.

*The JPV-G100 series is able to cook 0.5 go or more of rice and the JPV-G180 series 1 go or more of rice. The LCD on the main unit says “Small Amount Cooking.”

Small Amount and Quick/Frozen Rice settings

A Small Amount setting to cook a bowl of rice (0.5 go) in a minimum of about 15 minutes and 1 go in about 17 minutes* is provided to allow you to eat freshly cooked rice on busy days.

A Frozen Rice setting that allows you to cook delicious rice suitable for freezing is also provided. It takes longer than the White Rice setting to absorb water, and the resulting rice is fluffy to the core with minimal clumping, retaining its delicious flavor even after being stored in the freezer.

*The JPV-G100 series is able to cook 0.5 go or more of rice and the JPV-G180 series 1 go or more of rice. The time required for cooking may vary depending on the type of rice and room and water temperatures. (Based on our research)

Only 15 minutes to cook rice
Small Amount and Quick setting

“Frozen Rice” setting

Just add ingredients and press the key to complete a dish! Plenty of cooking menus

The Quick Cooking menu takes as little as 10 minutes to complete a dish. The rice is cooked all at once after it is simmered at a temperature close to boiling. The cooking time can be set in 1-minute increments, making it ideal for quick cooking. On the other hand, the Slow Cooking menu makes it easy to prepare authentic stewed dishes. For the first 60 minutes, the rice is heated at a higher temperature, and after that, the heat is reduced to slow cook the rice, eliminating the risk of overcooking or boiling over. The Slow Cooking setting can also be used to cook dishes without adding water. With Waterless Cooking, the moisture from the ingredients themselves is used instead.
