Most energy-efficient method to cook brown rice?

posted 3 months ago

Because I’ve been eating rice more often I realized via my energy bill that cooking in a pot on an electric plate for 30 minutes consumes massive amounts of electricity. Therefore I’m currently browsing for rice cookers, but the info on energy efficiency leaves much to be desired.

What would be the most efficient method to cook brown rice? Which appliance would be recommendable and ideally be in line with the Buy It For Life philosophy?

The IP has decent insulation and doesn’t have to vent pressure to regulate temperature. I think there would be a measurable difference. I don’t have an induction-friendly pressure cooker to test the idea, but it’s interesting to think about.
