Troubleshooting
Eggs are overcooked.
Have you used medium or small eggs? This product works best with
large eggs. Follow water recommendation for one less egg than what
you are cooking.
Eggs are undercooked.
Did you add water to the center of the water reservoir? The cooking
time is measured by water evaporating from center first. Did you use
extra large or jumbo eggs? This product works best with large eggs.
Eggs are slightly brown on shell after cooking.
Different types of water may discolor egg shells. Eggs are safe to eat.
Eggs are difficult to peel.
Very fresh eggs can be difficult to peel. It is easiest to peel eggs that
have been refrigerated 1 week to 10 days. To peel an egg, crackle the
shell all over by gently tapping the egg on a table or countertop. Roll
the egg between your hands to loosen the shell. Then peel off the shell,
starting at the large end. Hold the egg under running water or dip it in
water to make peeling easier.
