Description of 🥚 The Norpro Egg Perfect Egg Timer: Achieve Perfectly Cooked Eggs Every Time!

This egg timer will take the guess work out of boiling eggs! As the timer heats up, the red face changes color, indicating soft, medium, hard and stages in between, absorbing heat exactly as an egg does. The result is the perfect boiled egg!. Simply place timer with eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a pan. Cover with at least an inch or two of room temperature water. Egg timer darkens as eggs cook. Calculates cooking stages precisely by temperature, not loosely by time. Adjusts to the number of eggs and level of water in the pan.

Nothing like what I saw in the video

This is the bomb.com Seriously, buy one. You will not regret it. Works the first time and every time after that. I was a little apprehensive when I first took it out of the box. The lines that tell you how hard or soft the egg will be were really hard to see. I haven't seen anything like the video before. Don't be afraid, throw it in a pot of water and an ox! It's easy to see the lines!

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Some cons

Had to replace one I made

Left one of these in the pot too long with some eggs, the water boiled and I messed up all the eggs including this one trying to find replacements . Was glad I was able to get the same one as I had another for many years and I wouldn't boil eggs without it. MUCH better/more accurate than an egg timer. I mainly use it for hard boiled eggs, but there are labels for soft boiled eggs too. The only problem I've encountered is trivial: the thing has a flat bottom, but it still spins fairly easily in…

Pros
  • Quick change
Cons
  • Not as good as it says

Worked great the first time I used it.

Works exactly as advertised. Don't forget to do the following: 1 - Put the eggs in when the water is *cold*. Do not bring to a boil. Put this along with the eggs and then turn on the fire. 2 - When done, immediately remove from heat and place in cold water. I drain the water and run the faucet into the pot until the water is cold. Otherwise the eggs will continue to cook. Simply taking it off the fire is not enough. You need to lower the temperature of the eggs as quickly as possible so they…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Socket required

Still happy with my purchase over 15 years ago

I have been using this product for many years (at least 15 years and I honestly believe it's more than a year). I get perfect eggs every time. It's so easy to use! I add it to cold water while I bring the eggs to a boil and the red part starts to darken on the outside as time correlates to whether your eggs cook long enough to be soft, medium or firm. . I just clean it with a soapy sponge (never used in the dishwasher). Two friends were intrigued by this recently, so I just gave them these…

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish

Perfect eggs every time.

Works great every time I boil eggs. Start with cold tap water in a saucepan, allowing time for the eggs and eggs before turning on the fire. Within 15 minutes the water will begin to boil (set the timer) and watch the line move towards the hard boiled egg line for perfectly hard boiled eggs. Remove from heat and immediately pour boiling water, adding cold water to the saucepan several times to cool the eggs quickly. With this timer I never get a green line around the yolk. My mother has used…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Not for everyone

The perfect soft boiled egg!

Game. changer. I have raised chickens for the last 30 years and this is hands down the best egg timer. Period. Place it in a saucepan with eggs, cover with cold water, some salt (and if you're using freshly made nuggets from your girls or a farmer's market, be sure to add (heaps 1/4 teaspoon per egg for those who prefer measure) baking soda was easier to peel) bring to a boil and cook the eggs to desired temperature! Once you've checked what degree of doneness you prefer (a couple of eggs will…

Pros
  • Quality build
Cons
  • I'm mad

A must for boiled egg lovers

I love taking hard boiled eggs to work for a snack or lunch, but I've had a hard time getting them right. I've tried to narrow down the ideal time to cook, but haven't had consistent results. One day while searching the internet for this topic I stumbled upon it and decided it was worth a try for the price. I have to say I will never set a timer again or make any other form of guesswork. This thing has never let me down, and when it says the eggs are ready, they've always been exactly as the…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

HOW TO PREVENT YOUR EGGS FROM CRACKING (and a few other egg tips.)

I've been using this egg timer for years and I love it. For various reasons, I have not cooked hard-boiled eggs. Eggs for a while and I couldn't find my egg timer when I tried to use it recently. So I bought a new one from Revain and it works great. (It doesn't have the smell that some buyers have complained about.) Of course, I probably don't need to tell you that I found my old one about two weeks after I got my new egg timer. :)  Here's a tip on how to prevent eggs from cracking while…
