How to burp your EGG
Main content
Open with caution
'Burping' your EGG allows air to slowly and safely enter the dome, preventing any flare-ups that could cause a flash of heat to burn your hand. First, open your dome a few centimetres, slowly and carefully.
And bounce
Bounce the lid slightly for a few seconds. This will allow smoke and heat to escape and oxygen to enter gradually, so you avoid a backdraft.
Lift the lid
It will now be safe to open the dome fully. You'll need to burp your EGG every time you open it.
