Product Description
The Induction Heating System Rice Cooker & Warmer uses a high-tech Induction Heating (IH) method to heat the inner cooking pan. Because of this heating method, rice cooks exceptionally well. This IH Rice Cooker also features easy-to-clean clear-coated stainless steel exterior, healthy cooking options such as brown rice, GABA BROWN and germinated brown rice settings, and an interchangeable melody and beep signal. GABA BROWN is a way of cooking brown rice to ?activate? it and increase naturally occurring gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an amino acid in brown rice believed to have health giving properties such as lowering blood pressure, improving kidney function and relieving stress. The brown rice is ?activated? by soaking the rice at 104 F for 2 hours before the actual cooking begins. Other features include automatic keep warm, extra large LCD display for Clock and Timer functions and detachable inner lid.

Amazing November 16, 2008
T. Gardner (Bradford, VT United States)
This rice cooker is the one to get; it's pricier than the aluminum models, but it's made in Japan (not China), and everything inside and out is stainless steel. Everything about it is good, except possibly for the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star music it plays when it starts...you can change it but I haven't figured out how yet.
Makes The Best Brown Rice November 9, 2008

Once you get the amount of water right, this cooker delivers perfect GABA Brown rice every time. Same with steel cut oat meal.
Great rice cooker October 24, 2008

This is a great rice cooker. I've used it for rice, millet, quinoa, and oatmeal and it does a great job. It cooks grains perfectly and makes an excellent porridge. I would definitely recommend it!
Best rice cooker you can buy! October 5, 2008

We eat rice frequently, especially brown rice, and after much research we chose the Zojirushi HBC10. We also have significant brand loyalty after owning a Zojirushi breadmaker for the past fifteen years and it's still perfect. This rice cooker is perfect in every respect, even the cleaning is a snap. We just made the GABA brown rice for the first time and everyone agreed that it was the best rice they had ever eaten anywhere! Build quality is exceptional and we love it!
 Really great - perhaps more than you need, though? September 30, 2008

Reliable, easy to clean, and nicely sized for 2 - 4 people. We've done everything from rice to buckwheat to millet to the best oatmeal I've ever had in my life. The induction cooker really does make a difference and we get wonderfully evenly cooked rice. And the timer function is a lifesaver, especially in the morning.
The only reason it gets 4 stars instead of 5 is because I wish there were cool-touch handles on the bowls, but the rice is easy to extract and this is a minor complaint. Also, one reason we got this instead of a cheaper Zoji was because of the GABA rice capability, but if you want to save the $$ there are directions on how to make GABA rice just by soaking the rice ahead of time.
Do buy it with the Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook if you're planning to do anything more than rice - in addition to recipes, the book is great for giving water-to-grain ratios for just about any grain or legume.
