I have that same rice cooker. Zojirushi. It’s pretty solid, so I’d bet whatever fancy crap it uses to tell if it’s properly cooked probably helped the way his stuff turned out

Microwaves tend to beep a lot—every time you press a button on the keypad, when the cook cycle is complete, and then every few minutes afterward to remind you if you haven't taken your food out yet. Are all these beeps a bit much for you?...
