I got an Instant Pot!

Used it to make beans, they cooked fast and soft and not gritty, so yay.

Buuuut then I wanted to use it for a rice cooker, and the suggested proportion for brown rice was 1:1. I'm used to cooking brown rice (mixed with quinoa) on a 1:2 grain:liquid ratio... and I noticed that their proportion for white rice was also 1:1. Is this a typo, or is that really what you're supposed to use for rice cooking, equal parts rice and water, even if it's brown? (The rice, I mean. Don't cook with brown water.)

It is indeed 1:1, but subtract a bit of water if you cook the rice with veggies, tofu or anything that releases moisture as it cooks, or you will have soupy rice.
