Why does my Black+Decker RC516 Rice Cooker boil over?

  Jamie MillerJul 29, 2025
  Your Black+Decker Rice Cooker might boil over if you are cooking too much rice. Ensure that you do not cook more than the maximum amount suggested in the Use and Care Manual and that the amount of rice matches the water markings on the bowl. Alternatively, there might be too much water for the amount of rice. To resolve this, add a small amount (1 Tbs.) of butter or oil to the water before cooking.

What to do if some rice kernels are not fully cooked in my Black+Decker RC516 Rice Cooker?

  If some rice kernels in your Black+Decker Rice Cooker are not fully cooked, it could be because the rice was not allowed to finish cooking. Once the switch on the rice cooker automatically switches to keep warm, allow the rice to rest for 15 minutes before serving. Another possible cause is that there was not enough water in the cooking bowl. In this case, add a few more tablespoons of water and cook a little longer by pushing the control switch back to cook. Check the rice again when the appliance automatically switches back to warm and has rested for 15 minutes.

  If your rice is gummy in the Black+Decker Rice Cooker, it's likely because there is too much water or not enough rice. To fix this, add water to match the water markings on the rice bowl, ensuring you have the correct ratio of ¾ cup (6 fluid oz) rice to 1 cup water marking.

  If your rice cooking bowl is not as clean as you would like, it is likely due to starch buildup on the sides and bottom of the bowl. Fill the bowl with hot soapy water and let it stand for several minutes; then use a nylon scrubber along the sides and bottom. Rinse well.
