Page after page of instructions.

Balderdash!

I have a cooker that does a great job. Once it’s told me they’re done, I put them into the fridge so when it’s time, they peel as easy as one can get.

But, if you want to get the “experts’” instructions, go to The Definitive Study on How to Make Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs
 
This thread convinced me I need a boiled egg, a simple fave treat I haven't had in awhile. Thank you.
 
The best thing about about the Instant Pot......
You can hard boil fresh eggs and they always peel easy.
What is the instant pot?

It's basically a pressure cooker/crock pot.
When you make hardboiled eggs in a pressure cooker they always peel easy.
Has something to do with the pressure.
I'd guess the pressure shrinks the egg in the shell and separates it.
However it works fresh eggs peel easy.
 
The age of the egg makes the biggest difference as to how easy or hard it is to peel. I personally don't think there is a lot of difference between a 7 minute egg and a 17 minute egg. It is only when you want it kind of runny it matters.

Put them in cold water after boiling for easy peeling.
Agreed. I start with a rolling boil, place eggs in for 13 minutes and then go straight to a 5 minute ice bath. They peel so easily.
