The 5-litre inner pot accommodates up to approximately 1.5kg of uncooked rice (around 10–12 portions), making it ideal for family cooking or batch preparation. Can I cook different types of rice in the 62518? Yes. White rice, brown rice, basmati, jasmine, and glutinous rice all cook well. Brown rice and wholegrain varieties may require slightly more water and a longer cooking time — refer to the included guide for specific ratios. How does the steamer insert work? Place your vegetables, fish, or other ingredients in the steamer insert, add to the cooker above the water/rice level, and close the lid. Steam from the cooking water gently cooks the contents of the insert simultaneously. Is the inner pot dishwasher-safe? Hand washing with warm soapy water and a soft cloth is recommended to preserve the non-stick coating. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive sponges.
