A: Cooked rice can be kept in a rice cooker for no longer than 10-12 hrs, but ideally refrigerated or frozen ASAP to prevent bacterial growth and food poisoning. I’ve frozen cooked rice in personal serving size balls(or somewhat flattened balls)wrapped in wax paper and put into a sealed plastic bag then frozen. These can be reheated in a microwave on high for 1-3 minutes (depending on the wattage of your MW). Use same principles of food safety with rice as with anything else.

A: Hello, Thank you for reaching out to us. We do not recommend to leave the unit on for an over extended period of time.
