I am looking at a rice cooker (Zojirushi NH-VBC18) which has a setting to make GABA brown (germinated) rice. It does this by keep the rice at 104 degrees F for 2 hours before cooking. However, most of what I have read ststes that teh brown rice should be soaked anywhere from 8 hours to 2 days for germination. Generally it is said to saok at "body temerature".
Does anybody know if soaking at 104F for two hours will allow for sufficient germination?
