[Grand Prix] Ceramic Inner Pot Pressure IH Rice Cooker “炊きたて” 土鍋ご泡火炊き JRX-T100
[Gold Prize] Rice cooker category: Ceramic Inner Pot Pressure IH Rice Cooker “炊きたて” 土鍋ご泡火炊き JRX-T100
Tiger Corporation (President: Yoshisato Kikuchi, Headquarters: Kadoma, Osaka), a world leader in heat control technology, has announced the flagship model Ceramic Inner Pot Pressure IH Rice Cooker “炊きたて” 土鍋ご泡火炊き JRX-T100 won the overall Grand Prix at the ” Home Appliance Awards 2023-2024″ jointly held by “Get Navi”, a magazine of goods and trends from One Publishing Co. and “Kaden Watch”, a lifestyle information site by Impress, Inc.
The “Home Appliance Awards” is an award program featuring the “best of the best” home appliances of the year, decided by public voting. 161 products were nominated, a record high, for the 9th edition, which started in 2015, and Ceramic Inner Pot Pressure IH Rice Cooker “炊きたて” 土鍋ご泡火炊き JRX-T100 won the overall Grand Prix and the Gold Award in the rice cooker category.
土鍋ご泡火炊き JRX series was created as a masterpiece to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Tiger Corporation. For as many as 100 years since its founding, Tiger Corporation has been working on studies on temperature, which is the most critical parameter for cooking rice, based on its thermal control technology. What we acquired through the course of history is these ご泡火炊き series. To cook rice to serve at many of the first-class Japanese-style luxury restaurants, clay pots are used. A rice cooker of this series produces bubbling and high heat like those produced in cooking rice in a clay pot to bring out deep, sweet flavors and increase the springiness of the rice. The rice cooker can cook the ideal rice that Tiger Corporation has been aiming for in its 100-year history.
Beyond 100 years, Tiger Corporation will continue to take on challenges for manufacturing quality kitchen products to cook delicious meals.

Our goal was a rice cooker that can cook rice as good as that served at a first-class Japanese-style luxury restaurant. The ideal cooking technique that Tiger Corporation acquired over the years
ご泡火炊き
Aroma and good flavors of springy cooked rice spread out the moment you put it in your mouth. The more you chew it, the more the deep, sweet flavors of the rice appear.
“High temperature”
Approx. 300°C*1, the highest temperature in the history of Tiger Corporation, to bring out sweetness of each grain of rice with extremely high heat
The heat-storage performance of a clay pot made of natural materials is high and this means a temperature can be applied that is much higher than that possible with a metal pot. With the JRX series of the new flagship model rice cooker, a temperature up to approx. 300°C, the highest temperature in the history of Tiger Corporation, has been achieved successfully, using the heat-storage performance of the ceramic inner pot and the new 300°C W layer IH structure.
The TIGER’s first*2 new 300℃ W layer IH structure
The 300°C W layer IH structure adopts the two-layer IH coil structure for the bottom of the inner pot. The surface area of the coil is up 160%*3 more than that of the existing flagship model, bringing greater heating power. The first layer of the heating coil covering the bottom of the inner pot transmits heat seamlessly to the entire pot. The two-layer structure reproduces high heat and a heat temperature difference as if the ceramic inner pot was heated over an open fire. Utilizing the properties of the ceramic inner pot that slowly transmits heat, the rice cooker cooks rice with intense but gentle heat convection taking advantage of a difference in temperature between the upper and lower parts of the pot to maximize the sweetness of the rice.
The rice cooker slowly heats the rice to the grain cores using the far-infrared effect of the inner pot, which is about four times*4 that of a metal pot and can be produced only by the ceramic inner pot, to bring out the flavors of the rice.
*1 When cooking 4 go of rice using the White Rice setting in Grainy mode with the heat set to High. Temperature at the outer bottom of the inner pot (based on our research) The temperature that can be reached with JRX-T060 is approx. 250℃
*2 As of December 14, 2023 (based on our research)
*3 In terms of the area covered by the work coil, the JRX-T100 and our conventional JPL-S100 (2022 made in 2013). JRX-T100: 26207mm2, JPL-S100: 16695mm2 (based on our research)
*4 Based on a comparison of the inner pots between JRX-T100 and the conventional Tiger product JKT-P100 (2021 model). This is a comparison of the amounts of on-peak far-infrared radiation energy between the authentic donabe and the metal pot when the temperatures of the inside bottoms of the pots are 230°C and 110°C, respectively (presumed temperatures for cooking rice). JPL-S100: 397.6 Wm -2µm -1, JKT-P100 (2021 model): 97.7 Wm -2µm -1 (based on our research)
“Bubbles”
Fine and gentle bubbles only possible with a ceramic inner pot prevent the rice grain surfaces from being damaged and cook distinctively springy and fluffy rice.
In intense convection, the cooked rice grain surfaces are damaged, resulting in a sticky texture or starch that comes out through the skins of the damaged rice grains, resulting in fewer good flavors of the rice. The ご泡火炊き rice cooker cooks rice with fine gentle bubbles that are produced on the inner surface of the ceramic inner pot.
The produced bubbles enfold the rice grains, preventing the surfaces of the grains from being damaged so that the rice can be kept firm and lustrous and made even more springy and fluffy. The rice cooker cooks rice as ideally lustrous, springy and fluffy as that served at a first-class Japanese-style luxury restaurant without losing the good and rich flavors and textures of the rice.
