The Apuro CB944-A Large Commercial Rice Cooker is an essential appliance for high-demand Australian commercial kitchens. Designed to produce up to 23 litres of perfectly cooked rice (approximately 92 portions) in a single batch, this unit combines efficiency with reliability. Its intuitive operation and automatic cook-to-warm function ensure consistent results without constant supervision, freeing up staff for other tasks. Constructed from durable stainless steel, the CB944-A is built to withstand the rigours of daily commercial use, offering a long-term, cost-effective solution for rice preparation.

The Apuro CB944-A is engineered for the demanding environment of commercial catering. Its powerful 2.8kW heating element ensures rapid and even cooking, while the robust stainless steel exterior provides exceptional durability and ease of cleaning. The automatic switch from cooking to a keep-warm cycle prevents overcooking and maintains rice at an ideal serving temperature for extended periods, reducing waste and improving service efficiency. This cooker is designed for consistent, high-volume output, making it a cornerstone for any busy kitchen requiring reliable rice production.

The Apuro CB944-A Large Commercial Rice Cooker is designed for commercial use within Australia, complying with relevant RCM (Regulatory Compliance Mark) and food safety standards for commercial kitchen equipment. Its robust construction and food-grade materials ensure safe and hygienic operation.

Ideal for: Restaurants, takeaways, catering companies, canteens, hotels, large cafes, and any commercial food service operation requiring consistent, high-volume rice production.

Not suitable for: Home users, small cafes with very low rice demand (less than 10 portions per day), or operations requiring specialised rice cooking functions beyond standard white/brown rice (e.g., sushi rice with specific texture requirements without manual adjustment).

1. Accurate Measurement: Always use the provided measuring cup and follow recommended rice-to-water ratios for consistent results. Inaccurate measurements can lead to undercooked or mushy rice.
2. Rinse Rice Thoroughly: Rinse rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch, preventing sticky or gummy rice and improving texture.
3. Avoid Lifting Lid: Do not lift the lid during the cooking cycle. This releases steam and heat, which can disrupt the cooking process and result in unevenly cooked rice.
4. Fluff After Cooking: Once the cooker switches to 'keep warm', allow the rice to rest for 5-10 minutes, then gently fluff with the provided spatula to release steam and separate grains.
5. Regular Cleaning: Clean the non-stick inner pot and exterior thoroughly after each use to maintain hygiene and extend the life of the appliance. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the non-stick surface.
