Zojirushi’s NS-ZCC Rice Cooker and Warmer model features the brand’s advanced Neuro Fuzzy® logic technology, which allows the rice cooker to ‘reason’ for itself and make precise adjustments to the temperature and heating time to cook the optimal rice every time.

Unlike the conventional rice cookers in the market, whose simple functions are limited to heating up to cook the rice, turn off when it's done and keep the food warm, the “fuzzy logic” of MICOM (the microcomputer chip) adapts to the varied menu functions, such as white, brown, sweet or porridge, all of which require different cooking methods. This is achieved through the thermal sensor, a small round button at the bottom of the inner body of the cooker which is triggered by the weight of the inner pan and its contents. Throughout the cooking process, the Micom chip controls the temperature and the cooking time.

This model uses a black thick spherical pan suited for maintaining a balanced heating for better, even cooking. There is also a programmable melody or beep audio indicator to signal the end of the cooking cycle.
