I can't master it, but I've isolated the problem to leaving it to cook too long which causes the cheese to break (separate into fat and solids). I have to learn the window and ratios where the noodles soak up the custard, but the cheese stays melty. But don't get me wrong - It may be effed up but the flavor is still bomb.
