Question by Powderpuff: Can anyone help me with cooking brown rice?

My boyfriend is always cooking our brown rice but it always comes out mushy. Any tips? I'm considering getting a rice cooker since my family always gets great results from it.

The way he cooks it is stovetop with a sausepan for 45-50 minutes. He cooks white rice wonderfully but since we are changing to brown rice we are stumped.

Thanks!
