Just a thought, the boiling time can vary due to freshness of the eggs really fresh egg takes a bit longer..
Poached egg is a bit more foolproof, a few drops of vinegar in the water keeps the egg together, water just under the boil spin the water with a spoon, drop the egg in close to water with a cup. It's not an eggsact science though |

I personally have an egg cooker, don't know what type (and probably different to the current model anyway).
Takes 6 eggs, you put a required amount of water in (based on number of eggs and hardness you want) and just turn it on, goes ding when all the waters boiled and its done. BTW the spam links I inserted into my forums posts have been removed and I am now banned. |

according to some top chefs you have to make sure the water is boiling hot , then use a table spoon to put the eggs into the pan, dont just drop em in ,then time it for five minutes and you will have the perfect egg perfect for soldiers etc

My wife is quite a food critic when it comes to boiled eggs and as it is my job to boil the eggs I usually come in for some ear ache. The eggs are too soft, too hard, the wrong colour, shape, size, don’t fit the egg cups properly... To save our marriage I invested in one of these things and I must say it works brilliantly. The eggs are still too hard, too soft etc. etc. but I can now blame you Harry. So many thanks for alerting me to this marriage saving device.

A couple of years ago we spent a couple of weeks holiday, looking after some pet hens, whilst the owner took their own holiday away. We were told to take as many eggs as we liked and give the rest away. We just didn't like the eggs at all, gave them all away and bought our supplies from the shops. Part of the issue, is that our sense of taste deteriorates as we age. The smell or taste of vinegar was to me terrible until a few years ago, I used to take lemon juice on my F&C's - now I actually like vinegar since the past few years.
