My experience (which of course may differ from yours) is that:
1. 2 cups water to 1 cup rice produces rice that sticks together, at least for the basmati or other rice available here. 2. I prefer 2.5 cups water to 1.5 cups rice, or if that's just too much, 1+7/8 cups water to 1 cup rice. 3. I find rice is much less sticky if you bring the water to a rolling boil FIRST, then add the rice, then cover and turn down to low.
