How many eggs can you hard boil in an Instant Pot?
I would suggest doing more than a dozen at a time. But if you have a bigger Instant Pot then you might be able to hard boil up to 18 at a time. It might take a little trial and error depending on how big your Instant Pot is.
What is the egg button for on the Instant Pot?
If you are one of the lucky ones to have an egg button (aka you have a newer model then me) then you place your eggs in the Instant Pot hit the egg button and let the pot do its thing. Super simple!

5 minutes is what you need to set your pressure cooker too, or if you have an egg button that the time the egg buttons set the pot for.
