VEMA CU2077 Egg Boiler for Professional Kitchens

An egg boiler uses steam to cook eggs evenly without direct boiling. The appliance holds water in a sealed chamber beneath a perforated tray. When the element heats the water, steam rises through the tray, surrounding each egg with gentle, consistent heat. This method prevents cracking and overcooking, giving firm whites and runny yolks or fully set eggs, depending on the time set.

To operate the VEMA CU2077, fill the water reservoir to the marked level. Place eggs in the tray, close the lid and set the timer. The unit heats the water to boiling, then maintains steam until the timer ends. A signal sounds when cooking is complete. Remove the tray and serve or plunge the eggs into cold water to halt cooking.

The boiler is built from stainless steel, with a plastic lid and control knob. The exterior dimensions are 270 mm deep, 360 mm wide and 290 mm high, fitting on most worktops. The 6 kg weight allows easy repositioning between services. A 230 V single-phase supply powers the 1.85 kW element, drawing current typical of small commercial appliances.

Cleaning involves emptying the water chamber after each use to prevent scale. Wipe the interior and tray with a damp cloth, avoiding abrasives that could damage the stainless steel surface. The lid and knob can be washed separately in warm soapy water.

The CU2077 is a single model without variants. It is listed under egg boilers in the VEMA professional catering catalogue.
