Possible Causes

Incorrect water-to-rice ratio, Damaged bottom sensor, Warped inner pot affecting heat sensing, Firmware calibration drift

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Normal cooking adjustments are safe; no internal access is required.

  • Adjust ratios: Follow the Brock manual for recommended water-to-rice ratios, then fine-tune by adding slightly more or less water based on results.
  • Rinse rice: Rinse rice to remove excess starch, which can affect boiling behavior.
  • Check pot and plate: Ensure the inner pot bottom and heating plate are clean and flat for accurate sensing.
  • Manual mode: If automatic results remain poor, use a manual time/temperature program that you find reliable.
  • Service note: If all programs cook incorrectly and other symptoms (errors, overheating) appear, the sensor or control PCB may need replacement.
