A free calculator

We offer BoilMyEggs.com as a free egg boiling calculator. It estimates a boil time from your altitude, egg size, and how done you want the egg. You don't need an account, and nothing on the site costs money.

No warranty

The site is provided “as is,” with no warranty of any kind. We can't guarantee how any egg turns out, or that the site will always be accurate or available.

Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or harm from using the site, including anything you cook with it.

Food safety

Times are estimates. Pots, stoves, and eggs vary. Follow USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service guidance for cooking eggs, including at altitude. A calculator result is not a substitute for that guidance.

Soft and jammy eggs have runny yolks. USDA advises cooking eggs until the yolk and white are firm, especially for young children, older adults, pregnant people, and anyone with a weakened immune system. Soft and jammy eggs are your choice.

Ads and affiliate links

Some pages show ads. Those ads are served by Google AdSense and may come from other ad partners. Pages may also include affiliate links. Advertisers and merchants are responsible for their own sites, products, and offers. If you buy through an affiliate link, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

Privacy and contact

Our privacy policy explains how the site handles data, cookies, and ads. Questions? Use the contact page.
