Don't understand why people are having trouble with it, perhaps it's just practice makes perfect!

One thing you want to make sure you do ... is make sure you use the DYE and NOT the CURE ... people do, and the results will be terrible.

Another would be letting it cool under lukewarm, too hot and you'll have problems.

And like fish in the smoker, junk in, junk out ... if the eggs are falling apart (too loose) when you put them in, you'll have lots of trout bait when you get done.

PS do a batch with the dye and without ... differnent color eggs seem to make a diff some days, other times, no biggie!
