MICOM (Microcomputer) Technology
Aided by microcomputer technology, this category of rice
cooker takes having rice on your menu from “occasional” to “serious”.
Basically, the microchip does all the thinking for you, as far as
adjusting cooking times and temperatures according to the type of rice
you are cooking, and timing the pre-soaking of the raw grains and the
final “wait” period during steaming.
MICOM allows the cooker to have multiple functions on its
menu, making it a necessity for any avid rice fan who wants to
incorporate rice into her daily diet.
How it Works
Conventional rice cookers simply turn on and off in reaction
to temperature. The “fuzzy logic” of MICOM fine tunes this adjustment
to adapt to various rice types, such as white, brown, sweet or porridge,
which all has different cooking requirements. The trigger to everything
is the thermal sensor, a small round button at the bottom of the inner
body of the cooker. As the inner pan’s weight rests on it and activates
the sensor, it starts the cooking process and keeps an eye on the
temperature and time.
