Hi, please improve the software to get timer steps by 1 minute (now steps are 5 minutes) at least for time below 1 hour.  
Typically when you want to use timer to make the perfect egg, you need time like 13minutes.  
Thanks

IPa64,

Don’t sweat the small stuff about time. The important factor with Sous Vide is the temperature of the item you are cooking. Whether the APC had a timer resolution of 1 or 5 minutes really does not matter.

Yes you’re right, but there is an exception !  
The perfect egg 🙂  
With the egg calculator here : [The Egg Calculator](https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/the-egg-calculator)  
It’s a balance between time and temperature
