Free egg timer — soft, medium and hard boiled

Free egg timer — soft, medium and hard boiled

The Tickline egg timer keeps three classic boiled-egg presets one click away — 6 min for a runny soft-boil, 8 min for a jammy medium and 11 min for a firm hard-boiled yolk. Add another minute at altitude, and start the countdown the moment the egg touches boiling water. The alarm loops until you dismiss it.

Frequently asked questions

When do I start the timer?

Start it the moment the egg goes into boiling water for consistent results.

Do the times change at altitude?

Yes — water boils cooler above 3,000 ft. Add roughly one extra minute.
