Operating your Breville Egg Creations

Boiling eggs

Up to 7 eggs can be boiled at one time.
Maximum egg size that can be used is 70 grams.

Note

1.  For soft, medium or hard boiled eggs, fill the

measuring cup with cold tap water to the 
desired level.

Fill the cup with water to the line along side 
the number of eggs you are cooking. 
(The number along side the measuring lines
indicates the number of eggs to be boiled).
Pour the water into the heating base.

Less water is used when cooking more eggs. 
The amount of water used may have to be
adjusted to allow for variations in temperature
and size of eggs.

Note

2.  Pierce the blunt end of the egg using the

piercing needle on the underside of the
measuring cup base. Piercing the egg prevents
the egg shell from cracking during boiling.

3.  Place the egg tray onto the heating base and

position the eggs on the egg tray.

4.  Place the lid on the Egg Creations and insert the

plug into a 230/240 volt power outlet and turn
the power on. Press the ‘On/Off’ switch to ‘On’.
It will illuminate and the water will be brought to
the boil.

Allow the Egg Creations to cool down for
approximately half an hour before reusing.

Note

5.  The buzzer will sound when the eggs are ready.

Press the ‘On/Off’ switch to ‘Off’. Turn the 
power off at the outlet, and remove eggs from
