Google doesn't give a definitive answer  :tongue2: Between 9 and 12 minutes is a general consensus though! (starting with boiling water, and a room temperature egg)

I have just been given some and googled the time and was told 7-8 mins. Was the tiniest bit too runny so will go for 8 and a half with the next one!

Starting with boiling water I found that 7.5 minutes produced a really well cooked (soft boiled egg) when I managed to get hold of some last year. Lovely taste!
