Good video Chris. Thanks for making a positive contribution to the community!

It is somewhat similar to the way I have been experimenting lately.

Doesn't look anything like Indian takeaway rice up here in Glasgow, also up here they wash with cold water. Looking forward to your E-book

I thought it was still not advisable to use water from the hot tap for cooking due to possible lead and other bacteria that can build up in boilers??

Hi Barry, i am not going to get into a debate over it, if anyone does not want to use their hot tap don't.
If your hot water is fed from a header tank do NOT use the hot tap!
