The popular electric pressure cooker “TIGER COOKPOT” has evolved into an 11-in-1 unit!
Adding new settings “Stir-fry,” “White Rice Quick Cook,” and “Roasted Sweet Potato”

– High-capacity model for families is also available! To be released on November 1, 2024 –

Tiger Corporation (President: Yoshisato Kikuchi, Headquarters: Kadoma City, Osaka), a world leader in thermal control technology, will launch the TIGER COOKPOT COK-B220 electric pressure cooker, an “11-in-1” unit adding the new “Stir-fry” function to the TIGER COOKPOT electric pressure cooker, and a high-capacity model of the TIGER COOKPOT COK-B400 on Friday, November 1, 2024.

Since its launch in 2023, the COK model has performed well, achieving its annual sales target amount for the first year and ranking first in sales volume* for the 2 L type. We are now releasing an evolved model with new functions to meet the market needs, as well as a new 4 L type for families, which is the mainstream in electric pressure cookers.

A “Stir-Fry” setting is added for the COK-B model to support stir-fry recipes such as stir-fried shredded beef with green pepper. In addition, it is now possible to simmer curry and stew ingredients after frying, which keeps the flavor inside and prevents foams from rising. Also, in addition to “White Rice Quick Cook,” which only a rice cooker manufacturer can offer, the “Roasted Sweet Potato” setting, which has been the focus of much attention in recent years, is also included. With 11 cooking functions and 43 automatic settings in a single unit, this product will allow you to fully enjoy the taste of autumn.

*Based on our research (sales volume at major stores for the 2L type from July 2023 to April 2024)

Multifunctional model that performs 11 functions in a single unit, 42 automatic settings for easy operation

A new “stir-fry” setting is now added. In addition to stir-fry recipes such as stir-fried shredded beef with green pepper, it allows you to keep the flavor inside and prevent foams from rising by frying curry and stew ingredients before simmering.

With the new “Stir-fry” setting, in addition to Tiger’s proprietary “Premium” cooking setting, a “High-speed” setting that is quite useful for time-saving cooking and stew cooking, and “Slow Cooking,” “Low-temperature Cooking,” and “Waterless Cooking” settings that are also popular in rice cookers,

this has evolved into a multifunctional model that performs 11 functions in a single unit. With a wide variety of dishes, we offer a rich assortment of recipes that will make your daily cooking enjoyable. A high-capacity model is also available, which is useful for “meal prep.”

You can cook a wide range of dishes.
A new “stir-fry” setting is added.

Two new automatic settings are added

(1) White Rice Quick Cook

Based on a survey showing that about half of TIGER COOKPOT users “cook rice,” the rice settings have been enhanced. Leveraging more than 50 years of rice cooking know-how, the product cooks rice deliciously in as little as approximately 28 minutes* while applying approximately 1.15 atm

*When using COK-B220 to cook 1 go of rice. COK-B400 takes minimum 25minutes to cook 1go of rice.

(2) Roasted Sweet Potato

Utilizing heat control technology cultivated over many years, we have achieved a sticky texture and honey-like sweetness by slowly applying heat at a temperature that brings out the sweetness.

*Texture and sweetness vary depending on the variety of sweet potato.

Gentle pressure application through Tiger’s proprietary “Premium” setting

While most electric pressure cookers use high pressures of 1.7 atm or more, this product features a gentle pressure setting (Premium) that applies approx. 1.15 atm of pressure. The heat control technology we developed for our jar rice cookers is designed to make the most of the texture of the ingredients and applies pressure in a unique way to produce delicious results and prevent nutrients from escaping.

Save time! Complete depressurization in approx. 7 min.*1 Significant reduction of depressurization time, which equals waiting time.

The cooking process has been significantly shortened to make life easier for the target customers of this device, which are people in their 20’s and 30’s in busy double-income, child-rearing households.

In the Premium setting, after gentle pressure (about 1.15 atm) is applied for a long time, the process of reducing pressure follows and completes in about 7 minutes. Compared to typical high-pressure electric pressure cookers, the entire process takes less time*2

In addition, the heater power is increased for the high-capacity model to reduce cooking time. While the cooking capacity is approximately doubled, cooking can be completed in about 1.5 times as long.
