What is an IH Rice Cooker? An IH rice cooker uses Induction Heating. An IH electromagnetic coil uses an electric current to generate a magnetic field. This magnetic field generates a vortex current that is transmitted to the inner pot, causing the inner pot itself to heat up. This results in better thermal efficiency, and the entire inner pot is heated evenly. The powerful heating force cooks the rice, resulting in fuller, more fragrant, and chewier rice.Coil heating (IH) technology provides direct and precise heating, making rice cooking and heat dissipation more even. Healthy cooking options: Brown rice and GABA brown rice settings. Equipped with an LCD smart panel and multiple selection settings. Automatic keep-warm and extended keep-warm functions to maintain the rice's temperature. Delay timer (2 settings). Three heating sources (bottom, sides, and lid) generate balanced heat. The black inner pot is made of non-stick material, and the transparent coated stainless steel outer shell is easy to clean.
