I lost my cup for measuring water for the eggs, how much water should I put for each type of egg?

I would suggest contacting Krups for a new cup, since their instructions for filling the cup vary depending not only on whether you want soft, medium or hard eggs, but by how many eggs you are cooking. I was going to try to fill the cup for each variation and then pour the water into a measuring cup to give you the amounts, but the differences are so minimal, I don't think I could be accurate. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I just ordered a replacement directly from Krups. Go to http://www.thekrupsstore.com/KRUPS-MS-0017102-230-Measuring-Beaker/dp/B00I215P5E. It was only $4.99 and it allowed me to use my Amazon prime account to place the order.

I would contact Krups too; however, I did measurethe quantities for hard-boiled only since you didn't specify which ones you wanted. These are approximate: 7 eggs=1/4 c + 1tbs + 1 tsp; 6=1/4 c + 2 tbs + scant extra; 5=1/4 c + 1 tbs + 2 tsp; 4=1/4 c + 3 tbs; 3=1/4 c + 3 tbs + 3 tsp; 2=1/4 c + 3 tbs + scant extra; 1=1/2 c. My good deed for the week.

As I have had powdered eggs before I would say your lacking water. I'm not saying this is the absolute answer but sometime the directions need to be modified. I have three jars of this product and will no doubt have to deviate from the directions when the time comes.

There is a plastic insert that you place the unccoked eggs to hard boil them. Place a little water in, put on the lid, push the egg button and in around 13 min. you can have hard boiled eggs. I have the larger model with 4 toast slots, that can cook 8 hard boiled eggs at one time, so I can't remember if you can cook 4 or 2 at a time but probably 4. It makes cooking egg salad a breeze.

The cups I use are 1 cup measure. I leave a rim to testif it's too hot to drink right away.

I poach eggs all the time but I use the measurement on the cup for the soft. Add more water, up to the top level for fully cooked. I love my poached eggs a little runny. The cup is hard to read though.

I would use one cup. But it depends on how strong you want it. This would be an average strength.

Sorry. I did not keep the unit long enough to answer. I believe you add as much water as cups you want.

Yes, you put water in the bottom. I put it in the microwave for approximately 6 mins for four eggs. I would make sure you use the same temp tap water and find out what time works best for you because i have had to very the time depending on what microwave i use.

I scramble the eggs all the time. Just make sure the pan or griddle is hot and set the rings on the pan to heat up a bit before pouring in the eggs. Let the eggs get pretty well set up before removing the rings and flip carefully with a spatula. I made 18 eggs over the weekend for breakfast sandwiches for the freezer using an electric griddle and 8 egg rings. Had maybe 3 leak badly. Don't use too high of heat, I keep my griddle at about 225-250° F.

The directions call for 1 T of egg white powder mixed with 2 T water = 1 egg white. The label says 8 ounces = 2 cups of egg whites. So calculating that 16 T = 1 cup and there are 2 cups in the 8 oz bag it would appear that there are 32 egg whites in the 8 ounce bag.

This depends on hard boiled, medium or soft boiled and how many eggs you put into the tray. The more eggs the less water you use. There is a small cup that comes with the egg cooker that has markings to show you how much water to use. I did that a few times and now I just fill the cup to the top and set my personal timer for 14 or 15 minutes depending on the size of the eggs I'm cooking. If you wait for all the water cook out and the timer to go off...it's loud...you get a discoloration in the bottom of the cooker. I use mine almost daily and the advantage is when you cook the eggs with steam the shells peel so easily...you can peel six eggs in a minute. Can't beat it for the price but it does take a little getting use to. Hope this helps!

I'm sorry but I have not used the measuring cup for that reason. I plan to try the cup again, because if you don't use something, it is just hit and miss. I really like the egg cooker, it is less messy and I love the poached egg unit!

I usually put in 1/3 cup water. As others have stated, make sure there's enough so it seals.

I have never been successful at microwaving eggs. Boil water, gently drop in egg. Continue to boil for four minutes. Put on egg cup. Break top of shell. Enjoy.

I just added 3 X-Large Eggs to my measuring cup and it came perfectly to the right level on the cup for 1 Pound Flour. So try 3 X-Large eggs and then add a tbls extra flour or water as needed. I think you will be right in the ball park if not spot on.

I lost mine on a trip this last fall. I only make total hard boiled eggs, so fill to the ridge above the shallow well...so it is a thin solid puddle that fills and just touches the bottom of the eggs. I just made a batch today for egg salad!

We only use water, but I think it would just be that much richer if you used milk. It doesn't call for an egg, but we always add one and love it! Go on and experiment. You can't hurt the mix. It's gold!
