Product Description
The Buffalo 10-litre rice cooker is a straightforward, electrically operated unit designed for continuous rice production in commercial catering environments. It works on a simple automatic cook-and-hold cycle, switching to a keep-warm mode once the rice is ready. The removable inner pot lifts out cleanly for portioning and washing, keeping the workflow tidy during service.
In practice, a unit at this capacity is well suited to moderate- to high-volume operations — think busy takeaways, Chinese and Asian restaurants, hotel buffets, and staff canteens where rice forms a core part of the menu. The cooked output is substantial enough to support consistent replenishment throughout a service period without requiring constant attention from kitchen staff. The automatic hold function means rice stays at a safe and consistent temperature without overcooking, reducing waste and freeing staff to focus elsewhere.
Key practical advantages include:
- Automatic cook-and-hold cycle reduces the need for supervision
- Removable inner pot simplifies cleaning and speeds up turnaround between batches
- Reliable consistent results across rice types including pilau, boiled, and steamed
- Straightforward operation requires minimal staff training
- Robust construction suited to the demands of daily commercial use
Installation is uncomplicated — the unit requires a suitable mains electrical connection and sits on a flat, stable work surface. It is a countertop appliance, so no fixed installation is needed. Bear in mind that the unit's footprint is reasonably generous, so adequate worktop space should be confirmed before ordering. For sites producing rice in very large volumes across multiple sittings, a higher-capacity model may be worth considering.
This cooker is best suited to operations where rice is a regular menu staple and consistent output with minimal supervision is a priority. Smaller operations with only occasional rice requirements may find a lower-capacity unit more practical.
If you are unsure whether this capacity is the right fit for your service volumes or kitchen setup, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Each batch yields up to 23 litres of cooked rice from 10 litres of dry rice. Cooking time will vary depending on rice type and quantity, but most commercial rice cookers at this capacity complete a cycle in around 30 to 45 minutes, allowing multiple batches to be run across a full service. If your operation needs continuous, overlapping output, running two units in rotation is a practical approach.
- The unit is a plug-in countertop appliance and requires a suitable mains electrical supply rated for the 2.95kW draw. No fixed installation, plumbing, or ventilation extract is required. You will need a stable, heat-resistant worktop with enough clear space for the unit's footprint — it is worth checking measurements against your available bench space before ordering.
- It is well suited to the most commonly served rice types in commercial kitchens, including long-grain boiled rice, pilau, and jasmine rice. Sticky or glutinous rice varieties can also be prepared, though results may vary depending on the specific grain. For kitchens serving a wide range of rice dishes, it is worth testing a batch with your preferred rice before committing it to full service use.
