Frequently asked questions
about Rice Cooking facility SILK
Introducing frequently asked questions about SILK, such as the features of pressure-type IH rice cooking and the operation of rice cooking equipment.
What is the difference between pressurized and non-pressurized?
High-pressure, high-temperature rice cooking at 1.2 atmospheres (106°C) allows heat to penetrate to the core of the rice, resulting in rice that is resistant to deterioration in eating quality and is fluffy and shiny.
What is the difference between gas and IH?
Gas rice cookers only heat the bottom of the pot, while SILK cookers can heat the pot from both the bottom and sides, allowing for more precise heating adjustment.
Isn't IH a low-heat cooker?
IH has higher thermal efficiency than gas, and can produce the same heat power as gas with fewer calories. Since the heat power is not visible, it may appear weak at first glance, but in fact, IH boasts strong heat power due to bottom and side heating, and is in no way inferior to gas.
IH output decreases over time, right?
There is no decrease in output due to aging. However, as part of maintenance management, consumable parts must be replaced.
Doesn't IH consume a lot of electricity?
Electricity consumption per pot is approximately 2.1kWh. (*Converted to 7kg of raw rice)
Is it difficult to operate?
If you register the items you want to cook on that day, it will automatically reverse the process. In addition, the optimum heat pattern can be registered for each item, making it highly reproducible and allowing you to cook rice with less uneven cooking without relying on experience.
How much can I cook?
Raw rice weighs 3kg to 7kg per pot.
What's the lineup?
The SILK lineup includes 60 kettles/h, 80 kettles/h, and 120 kettles/h. (*Proposals for 60 kettles/h or less are also possible)

Is it true that the amount of exhaust heat is low?
Approximately 40% reduction effect is expected compared to gas cooking equipment with the same capacity.
How can I cook rice deliciously?
It is important to control the time, weight, and temperature and cook with the optimal heat pattern.
