One traditional Japanese measure of rice, known as a go, is 180 ml (150 g / 5.3 oz), which is enough for two regular servings. Most regular rice cookers allow you to make up to five of these measures (10 servings). There are times, though, when this is not enough: you have a big family, you are holding Japanese cuisine nights for your friends, or you just love Japanese rice and want more of it. Whatever the reason, you need a bigger cooker, perhaps one that cooks up to 10 measures. Like the Zojirushi NW-YA18 Pressure Induction Heating Large Capacity Rice Cooker!
The big, 1.8 liter capacity pot first draws your attention but the Zojirushi NW-YA18 Pressure Induction Heating Large Capacity Rice Cooker also has a revolutionary method of cooking rice: through a combination of a more airtight lid and induction heating during the whole time the rice is cooked, it raises the temperature to a high heat level, which makes the rice fluffier and allows its natural sweetness to come out in either of its three white rice modes (crunchy, regular, or sushi). You want more? The detachable lid and flat top make it easier to clean and put away after you are done cooking!
