If you're going to get a consistent result, you have to have a consistent process.
Which means you have to control:
1 - The heat; and
2 - The time the eggs are exposed to that heat.
You have approximately a 30 second to 1 minute window, between gettin the yolks the way ya want em, and "powdered", like in the OP.
Yolk should be solid enough ta handle, just a bit over a soft boiled egg. If your yolk is solid and dry in the middle, you're doin it wrong, if ya want a smooth and more tasty yolk.
That's why steamin eggs is the way ta go.
Ya know pretty close ta what the temp of the steam is, but in any event it'll be the same each time, less ya change altitude.
Usin boilin water and droppin the eggs in it, changes the temp of the water, just like if ya dropped ice cubes in it.
It will recover, but the time and temp has become inconsistent.
Steamin, the temp never changes, so ya got more room for error.
When the pot with an incha water in it is boilin, put the eggs in the steamer and lower it onta the steam.
Cover for 11 - 11:30, or close to that, you're gonna hafta experiment, remove and rinse in cold water, then fill the pot enough ta cover em in cold water, and let em sit in that til they're room temp.
Some people like ta use ice at that point, but again that can lead ta inconsistent cooling.
Grossest thing I ever saw... And they smell like chit too... Ewwwwwwwwwwwwww...
Wait a minute, you're a submarine guy and deviled eggs are the grossest thing you ever saw? Calling bullschit on that 😁
Call it what you want, but deviled eggs are freakin' GROSS - bigly...
And it's obvious YOU'VE never been on a sub..
Funny you should mention that. I actually was a nuke sub guy until I raised a little too much Hell and got busted and "offered" a job in the surface fleet. I call those my "drinking years."
Well, then, I stand corrected.. Yeah, on the nukes, they don't have quite the sense of humor we had on the old WWII diesels..
And if the cooks on the boat woulda made some of those smelly-azzed D-eggs I might have been tempted to use the escape hatch..

Any of you boomers got the Tupperware deviled egg tray holder tote ghey thingy? 😃
Be the envy of all other Nanas at the Winslow fambly reunion homecoming at the Nation Of Elijah House of Bread God Chasers Church.
Traded a crockpot lid fer one…
LOL
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.
Some of them tore me up at church business meeting. Thought I had worms for few days.
Gotta watch what Sister Geraldine brings….
Boomers don’t believe in putting the Mayernaise in the ‘frig….
She stole the lid to our Crockpot last dinner we had. Can’t have nothin nice.
You got off lucky! I barely intercepted Nana heading out the door with my new electric roasting pan at last years Christmas party. She insisted it was hers. She acted surprised when I showed her my name written on the bottom with a Sharpie. Not so fast Granny! Gotta be clever. Them blue hairs are formidable opponents.
