The inner liner of N1S is made of food-grade stainless steel, which is a real 0-coating inner liner, avoiding the hidden danger of coating shedding, addressing customers’ worries about the health hazards of coating shedding. N1S is equipped with Joyoung's original air-cooled space technology, which precisely controls the temperature of each section of the core to brings a better texture of the rice. By relying on the air-cooled cooling, the water vapor forms a layer of uniform thickness of water film on the inner liner wall, which separates the rice and inner liner to achieve the effect of non-stick; coupled with the application of the "dot-matrix micro-pit", N1S makes the structure of the water film more stable, and further enhances the effect of non-stick.
