cooking time = 7 min, not 7 in!

I want to cook rice in the IP but want to use the bowl in a pot method as I want to use coconut milk and have read that milk makes the rice stick to the bottom of the pot.  Do I have to adjust the time to take this into account?  

 

Using that method, with a pyrex bowl inside the IP, I have had good success using the midpoint of the guidelines in this article.  I always wash and drain the rice first but don't otherwise adjust the time.  Caveat - I'm usually cooking 1 cup or less of raw rice, and more often than not using brown rice or a wild rice mix so I'm using a longer cooking time.  

 

I have used this recipe for coconut rice in the IP, pot in pot.  I believe I followed the 7 min cooking time but let the natural pressure drop go for 10 min (rather than the 7 min stated in that recipe) before releasing the remaining pressure.  

Edited to add that I've done a coconut brown rice with that recipe, 25 min high pressure, 10 min natural release.
