Notes

*Use Cold Water: Ensure you're using 1 cup (250 ml) of Cold Water because some users like to shorten the "coming up to pressure" time by using hot water or warm water, and this will directly affect the final results of your Hard Boiled Eggs.
*Don't Submerge Eggs in Water: Submerging the eggs in the water during the pressure cooking process will affect the final result of your Hard Boiled Eggs.
*Adjust Accordingly: Be sure to test and adjust to your situation because many factors affect the results of your hard boiled eggs including:
  • Altitude (we're close to sea level)
  • Amount and temperature of the cooking liquid
  • Amount of eggs
  • Size of the eggs
  • Freshness & temperature of the eggs
  • Pressure setting
  • Pressure release method
  • Cooking method (on a steamer rack or directly in the liquid)
  • Resting time & method (cold water bath/ice bath)
