Don't they foam in the rice cooker? I tried barley in the rice cooker once (major cleanup headache) - and it seems to me that oats on the stovetop foam even more than barley?

Oakleaf - when I made them with 1cup milk, 1 cup steel cut oats, 3 cups water - they boiled over horribly! So then I dumped it and tried 3/4 cup oats and then 3 cups water and no milk. Didn't boil over. They looked watery until I stirred them.
My dh being first generation american eats a lot of rice so it was a good purchase either way

partial hijack ... some brown rice has a lot of starchy dust and I think that's what causes it to make a mess in the rice cooker. When I get a batch that seems extra dusty, I'll rinse it before cooking (as I would for sushi rice) and that seems to take care of it.

My mother in law taught me to always wash my rice
In Burma, she used to spend hours going through it and making sure there were no bugs - and then rinsing
