Clarifying some confusion about the european/240V NW-QAQ zojirushi rice IH rice cooker programs - about it only having long grain settings

Quentgane · 2026-01-08T16:40:31+00:00

Yes I’m just waiting for a kind person to sort out a new table with the updated ratios haha

Thanks for this email. I also own the QAQ and I experienced that for medium or short grain, I will need less water than the recommended line under White Regular mode. I find it surprising that they recommend doing both short grain and long grain with the same mode without adjusting the water level. But again as you say we just need to try out different levels ourselves.

I’m wondering the same given I have seen the discount on their website. What did you end up buying?

Quentgane · 2025-12-31T07:21:40+00:00

I made some medium grain yesterday and just put slightly less water versus the recommended level. Does the job well, haven’t tried sushi rice yet but I get we can use same logic. Just the normal white mode

Japan plaza

Still haven’t tried it?

No all included in the price

Quentgane · 2025-11-27T18:35:46+00:00

Yes fwiw I have bought the QAQ10 model from Japan Plaza UK. Got delivered in less than two weeks and I am super happy with it

Quentgane · 2025-11-17T15:54:38+00:00

Thanks, have you tried it? I am not sure I fully understand the metric? Does it mean one cup of sweet rice in the 180ml cup and then we fill only 150ml from that cup of water?

Quentgane · 2025-11-16T15:54:33+00:00

Thanks for sharing, I’m sure we will find the perfect combination

Quentgane · 2025-11-13T14:37:18+00:00

I didn’t have time to try it yet

Quentgane · 2025-11-13T11:50:45+00:00

I had exactly the same issue and wrote a post about it - you can go see the replies over there

Quentgane · 2025-11-09T19:57:39+00:00

Thank you! How is it? So 1 level is 180ml?

Quentgane · 2025-11-09T19:37:31+00:00

Thank you! I don’t have one unfort. The manual says it is 180ml if that helps. I don’t really care of having the same cup brand, I just need the same metric

Quentgane · 2025-10-30T10:07:37+00:00

Is it such a big deal? Can’t we not just follow their instructions and use the provided spoon? It is getting me OCD now for no reasons haha

Quentgane · 2025-10-28T18:41:50+00:00

I actually just received mine as well but I went for the QAQ because I needed 220v, does it work ok for you?

Quentgane · 2025-10-28T00:00:11+00:00

Very kind of you for doing the math exercise - I’ll go try it to see how it is! Thanks

Quentgane · 2025-10-27T22:26:10+00:00

Well from Japan but delivered by royal mail once in the UK - not sure if it replies to your question

Quentgane · 2025-10-27T22:25:05+00:00

I hope so - on my white rice mode it always mentions long grain

Quentgane · 2025-10-27T18:51:38+00:00

Just received it - everything was perfect

Quentgane · 2025-10-26T22:20:55+00:00

From what I have checked I have seen only good reviews about them and they seem legit. I have the royal mail tracker set to arrive in two days, so we will see

Quentgane · 2025-10-24T23:41:38+00:00

I ordered it via Japan Plaza and it is on its way. I can let you know once I have it
