How to use

Place the MUHLER ME-516 on a stable, heat-resistant countertop and fill the measuring cup to the level appropriate for the desired doneness using the supplied egg piercer if required. Arrange eggs in the trays and insert the tray into the boiler; for poached or scrambled portions use the dedicated 4-portion tray. Close the lid, set the timer and start the appliance. The unit will steam the eggs and signal with an audible alert when the set time ends. Allow eggs to cool briefly before handling. Always follow the safety and cleaning instructions in the user manual and disconnect from the mains before cleaning.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, use the measuring cup each time and adjust water volume according to egg size and preferred doneness. Pre-pierce large eggs with the supplied piercer to reduce cracking. Do not operate the appliance without water; the dry-boil cut-out protects the unit but proper water levels extend its service life. Clean trays and the poaching insert after each use and avoid immersing the base with electrical components in water.
