How does the Pot Minder work?
The Pot Minder is made from specially formulated food safe ceramic materials and is heat treated to result in a material that is completely non-porous to prevent any danger of absorption and bacteria growth. The principle behind the Pot Minder’s function involves a ceramic product with a carefully designed surface, size and density to modify the formation, size and number of bubbles rising from the bottom of the pot. This results in less vigorous boiling. When boiling begins, the Pot Minder will also chatter on the bottom of the pot and act as a reminder that boiling has started. It is interesting that for centuries, our ancestors used small river rocks in pots to serve the same function.
