The secret to the delicious flavor of the
ご泡火炊き-Approaching the ceramic pot with fire and foam-
High heating power inspired by ceramic pots
to bring out the sweetness and umami of rice
Far-infrared, oven-effect, ceramic-coated, nine-layer inner pot
A ceramic oven-effect coating is applied to the exterior of the inner pot. For the upper part, a thermally conductive copper material coating is used. For the lower part, a heat-sealing ceramic inner pot material coating is used. These coatings reproduce a heat storage performance close to the ideal heat retention performance that can be achieved through cooking in a ceramic pot. The difference in temperature between the upper and lower parts of the coatings causes a strong convection of boiled rice grains and water and transfers heat to the rice properly so that the cooked rice is plump to the core. The far-infrared ceramic coating on the inside of the pot increases the far-infrared radiation effect and causes the rice and water to boil with fine bubbles as if the rice was cooked in a ceramic pot, bringing out the good flavors of the rice.
Far-infrared radiation effect produced by the heat-sealing ceramic coating powder
This model cooks soft, tasty rice whose grains are of an even quality by slowly heating each grain of rice to the core.

Gentle foaming derived from ceramic pots
to protect each grain of rice
Coating on the bottom surface for bubbling
The coating provided covers a large surface area from the bottom surface to the curved surface of the inner pot to enhance bubbling. The bottom surface of the pot is provided with about 6,500 fine projections to enhance bubbling and cause convection appropriate for cooking rice, allowing each grain of the rice to be enfolded by fine bubbles cooked in a clay pot, thus cooking fluffy and plump rice.
Close pressure adjustment
New pressure structure
“Solenoid type Multi-level pressure mechanism”
The previous models brought out the stickiness and springiness of rice by applying optimum pressure to the rice grains with a variable-pressure control feature enabled with two pressure balls, one large and one small.
With the new pressure structure using an electromagnetic functional component, the pressure-regulating solenoid, this new model controls the pressure to be applied to the rice in stages. The rice cooker controls the pressure in stages to maintain a high steaming temperature in the finishing stage while gently changing the temperature to bring out the sweetness of the rice and cook rice with each grain having a springy and chewy texture.
UMAMITSUBUDACHI rice cooking program for cooking tasty and firm plump rice
Cooking program to bring out the
sweetness and springiness of the rice
Taking a cue from the way of cooking rice in a clay pot, the rice cooker lets the rice absorb water at a relatively low temperature
for a long time and then rapidly raises the temperature
to bring out the springiness of the rice and deepen the flavors of the rice.
Keep your rice warm without
sacrificing freshly cooked flavor
TSUBUDACHI keep-warm program for keeping rice warm and fluffy
Keep your rice soft and warm without
sacrificing the freshly-cooked flavor.
The rice retains its moisture, keeping the rice succulent
and preventing it from drying out.
The moisture content of rice is retained to prevent the rice from drying even hours after the rice is cooked.
A keep warm program that retains
the flavor of freshly cooked rice
The rice cooker uses a vapor sensor to detect the amount of water evaporating from the rice and control the rise in temperature even while keeping the cooked rice warm, enabling the amount of the evaporating water to be maintained at the optimum level. This allows the moisture to be contained in the rice and the shape of the rice grains to be retained so that the rice can be kept warm and fluffy for hours.
The rice tastes freshly cooked
even after time has passed.
With the TSUBUDACHI keep-warm program, the hardness and stickiness of the rice kept warm in the rice cooker 13 hours after being cooked changes less than those of rice kept warm in our conventional rice cooker*. You can enjoy rice as delicious as freshly cooked rice even hours after the rice is cooked.

Special Rice Cooking Settings
“Premium” setting
This luxurious setting brings out all of the sweetness, springiness, aroma, stickiness, and softness that define delicious rice. The water-absorption process takes twice as long as the standard “White Rice” setting in order to bring out the original flavor of the rice.
“Special Small Amount Cooking” setting
This is our solution for those who want to enjoy freshly cooked tasty rice whenever they want,
in only the amount they need. Small portions of 0.5 to 2 go may be cooked with delicious results.
* 1 to 3 go for the JRI-A180.
“Small Portion and Quick” setting
A setting to cook a bowl of rice (0.5 go) in a minimum of about 15 minutes* is provided to allow you to eat freshly cooked rice on busy days.
* Only rice cookers with a capacity of 5.5 go can be used to cook 0.5 go of rice. It takes about 17 minutes to cook 1 go of rice (minimum amount) with a rice cooker with a capacity of 1 sho. The time required for cooking may vary depending on the type of rice and room and water temperatures. (Based on our research)
“Frozen Rice” setting
In order to prevent defrosted cooked rice from turning out dry, or defrosted rice reheated in a microwave oven from being pasty, this setting gives the rice a longer time to absorb water than the White Rice setting. In this way, the cooked rice will be plump to the core and the delicious flavor can be kept even after the rice is frozen.
“Brown Rice” setting
This setting produces plump, delicious brown rice, which is usually difficult to cook with the right amount of water . Brown rice is a good source of vitamin B and other nutrients.
“Mixed Grains” setting
This setting produces plump, delicious rice with mixed grains, which is usually difficult to cook in consideration of the right amount of water absorbed. You can easily take in abundant nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber.
“Barley Rice” setting
The device is equipped with a Barley Rice setting that is specialized for cooking white rice with barley rich in soluble fiber. A unique rice cooking programs tailored to the characteristics of barley suppress odors and deliver a delicious taste that can be enjoyed every day.
“Brown Rice GABA” setting
GABA is a remarkable ingredient that is said to reduce stress and improve the quality of sleep*1 and is also a type of amino acid.
Brown rice is cooked for a longer time than usual to promote the work of enzymes contained in brown rice,and is cooked with more than 4.5 times the amount of GABA*2 than brown rice in its raw state.
