It's time for a brief discussion on hard boiled eggs!
For whatever reason, it seems like these recipes are all over the place. Some recipes recommend twice as much time as others. I'm very close to sea level so the conditions aren't out of the ordinary.
For example, this recipe says 4 minutes for soft-boiled eggs, 5 minutes for hard-boiled eggs, at high pressure. But when I tried those timings I ended up getting eggs where the whites aren't solid at all. The entire thing was just a gooey mess inside including the non-solid whites.
After much experimentation and browsing, I finally found this which worked perfectly:

1 cup of water, 12 minutes, low pressure, drop in an ice bath when done. Perfect eggs!
