Precautions for “gAbA” Cooking (no cooking presset time allowed)
▶If smaller germination is preferred, omit pre-germination process. Select “GABA” menu, set-up appropriate
germination time, and start cooking (nutrient ingredients do not vary significantly by the size of germ).
▶GABA function cooks for up to 6 people.
▶Tap water can be used for germination. However, spring water is recommended. Germination may not be
properly performed in hot or boiled water even after cooling.
▶Germination rate, germ growth may differ by the Brown rice type, condition or period of storing, etc.
- Germinated brown rice is sprouted brown rice. Germination rate and growth may differ by the
brown rice brand.
The brown rice should be within 1 year from harvest.
▶In GABA mode, preset on 4H, 5H, 6H may not be possible. If you want to preset the GABA, set up “ ”
In order to promote germination, we recommend soaking brown rice
for 16 hours in water.
Method of Pre-germination
▶ Put washed brown rice in an appropriate container, pour sufficient water to soak the rice.
▶ Pre-germination should not exceed 16 hours. Make sure to wash rice clean with flowing water
before using “GABA” menu. Be careful not to over wash the rice because it may destroy the
embryos which generates the germination.
▶ When pre-germination has been completed, wash the rice and put in the inner pot.
Pour appropriate amount of water, and use “GABA” menu.
