Breville the One° Precision Poacher for $129 on Amazon.
This the cheapest I've seen it. RRP is $199, but you can typically get it for around $165 (eg Billy Gyatts) to $180 (lots of places).
Not sure why Amazon has it so much cheaper currently, but seems like a pretty good discount to me :)
Cheers.
CamelCamelCamel.
How flexible are we talking here ;)
That depends on you.
Agreed. I have an Anova Precision Cooker, and I love it. But this might just suit some needs better… eg tempering chocolate? ;)
Ok I just bought the Anova. Went on their website to suss it out and a 30% off code popped up so I managed to get the wifi version for $153.
Also available from HN for the same price and can collect if that is easier

Haven't really managed to get the Anova to cook eggs properly. I would probably not buy this though.
$129 to boil eggs…
Shame on you all !!!
If you are the type to buy your eggs from David Jones World Food Court then this egg-cooker is cheap in comparison…
However, I use the Breville Eggspert myself and am very happy with it.

Also, interestingly… After watching a review I realised why some glass pots have those holes in them… it's to stick in temperature probes… I always thought they were to let some steam out or the pot would explode!

DJs food hall actually not that expensive after 20% discounted gift cards…
Poacher
It's a steal
No real ozbargainer would buy one of these when a saucepan and water can do the job :D
ahhh - there's the rub. I agree with your for boiled eggs but I'm still looking for the best reliable way of poaching an egg.
just drop the egg into boiling water using a large spoon/ladle. Or if you want to go fancy get a pan with a poaching insert.
Fresh eggs and some technique - pretty reliable.
If I do the water technique I get egg white everywhere and with the silicon poachers I get a spot just under the yolk which doesn’t cook properly.
Want to know how I made mine this morning?
Cling film… a drop of olive oil so the egg doesn't stick. Chuck in cracked egg, tie the cling film up.
4min in water.
Perfect poached eggs.
If you're looking at this, please consider the ANOVA precision sous vide cooker. Can do the same thing but so much more flexible
