Soft
= Soft boiled (40 ml water)
Medium = Medium (55 ml water)
Hard
= hard boiled (90 ml water)
The markings on the measuring cup relate to medium-sized eggs (size M).
However, results can vary depending on the actual size of the egg and how
many eggs are boiled at once. Factors such as the freshness of the eggs and
temperature also play a role. Best results can be achieved through trial and
error.
Boiling
• Place the egg boiler on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
• Prick the underside of the egg (the roundest part) with the pin located on
the bottom of the measuring cup (remove the protective cover from the pin
first). This prevents the eggs from cracking during the cooking process.
NOTE!
The pin is sharp.
• Fill the measuring cup with water based on how well cooked you want
them (soft, medium or hard). Pour the water onto the hotplate.
• Place the egg holder on the hotplate and put the desired number of eggs
into the holes (1-6). The eggs must be placed with the pricked side facing
upwards. Put the lid on.
• Ensure the timer knob is in the OFF position and then plug the appliance
in.
• Set the required degree of cooking (
soft boiled, medium or hard
boiled) using the timer knob. The indicator light will come on and the
cooking process will start. The timer function is continuous, so if you want
to adjust the degree of hardness while cooking, simply turn the timer knob
to the required level. Use trial and error to work out when the eggs have
the required consistency.
NOTE!
The corresponding amount of water (soft,
medium, hard) must always be poured onto the hotplate before starting.
• Once the eggs are ready, the appliance will switch off and 4 beeps will
sound to indicate that the eggs are cooked. Turn the timer knob to OFF
and unplug the appliance.
• Carefully lift off the lid (be mindful of hot steam). Lift the egg holder out
and place it under cold running water to stop the cooking process.
If the eggs are left in the egg boiler, they will continue to cook due to the
residual heat.
Do not move the egg boiler when it is in use, as all the parts get very hot.
Please note that the egg boiler and the eggs will be very hot.
Cleaning
•
Unplug the egg boiler and allow it to cool down before cleaning.
•
The egg holder, lid and measuring cup are dishwasher-safe.
•
Allow the hotplate to cool before cleaning it with a damp cloth.
•
Dry with paper or a dry cloth.
