A: Thank you for your question. This unit will have BPA in the bottom and top container as well as the lid.
Q: Will this steam rice? If not, do you have one that will?
A: Yes and it does a good job. Will have to add water during the process for more than 1 cup. There is a port for this purpose. We steam brown rice quite frequently and for 1 cup or more you will have to add more time. The timer only goes to 60 secs.
