Audio Compression Manager (ACM) is a Windows multimedia framework that manages audio codecs (compressor/decompressors). ACM can also be considered an API specification. A codec must conform to the implicit ACM specification to work with Windows Multimedia. ACM files can be recognized by their filename extension .acm.
Poach Time. With the heat on low and the eggs in the covered poacher, the eggs should cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the egg whites are firm. For those who prefer harder yolks, another minute or two can be added to the cook time. In total, it should take no more than 10 minutes to poach an egg in an egg poacher. More about egg poachers.
The fresher the egg, the tighter it will poach; the older your egg, the more ghost-like wispies in the water. A spoonful of vinegar helps the situation by encouraging the whites to coagulate quickly. If you're new to poaching and want a guarantee of success, we recommend adding vinegar. But 4 minutes, give or take, in lightly simmering water, will give you a firm white and a gooey but still runny yolk. 2  Remove the egg: Use a slotted spoon to remove the egg from the water. 3  Pat the egg dry: This is optional as well, but I like to pat the egg dry lightly with a paper towel.
