Our pot has an Egg setting which is for either 7 or 10 minutes, can't remember which at the moment, but I think it's 7. Then when it finishes we let it release the pressure on its own for another 7 minutes. The eggs go straight into an ice water bath for a couple minutes and then the peels slip right off. My wife just said that at Thanksgiving she did 18 at one time. All 18 turned out great.
