Parts & Features

USING your EGG COOKER

SOFT, MEDIUM, HARD BOILED EGGS, AND EGG BITES:
The times listed below are guidelines so that you will know how long it will take to cook your eggs. The thermostat in the Ultimate Express Egg Cooker will shut off automatically when the eggs are done – no additional timer is necessary. The following time guidelines are for medium to large eggs. Extra- large or jumbo eggs may require additional time/water in the appliance to achieve the desired results.

If you like medium eggs firm: let the eggs sit covered in the Ultimate Express Egg Cooker for a few extra minutes before removing them. If you like completely hard-boiled eggs: let the eggs sit for an extra minute in the Ultimate Express Egg Cooker after the music chime sounds. Since the Egg Cooker will automatically turn itself off, the above times are just estimations of how long it will take your eggs to cook. Cooking times may vary due to the size and temperature of eggs.

CHEF TIP : If you live at a higher altitude, add up to 25% more water to your Egg Cooker to ensure the best results!

TIMER AUTO-OFF
This Egg Cooker is equipped with a precision thermal sensor. When it senses that all water has evaporated from the Heating Plate, the Cooker will stop cooking. A music chime will alert you that this has occurred.

ATTENTION : Do not lock the Lid when using your Ultimate Express Egg Cooker as this may cause injury when removing the Lid once the music chime sounds.
