Simply place the Pot Minder in the bottom of the pot when cooking or warming pasta, soups, potatoes, vegetables, or milk.

When asked "How does this work?" I like to respond "They work very well" It is true, and you should find out for yourself how well these work.The Pot Minder is made with a white, food safe clay body that is fired near vitrification to ensure a non-porous material. Dishwasher safe and may be used over and over. How it works? The Pot Minder reduces boiling and decreases bubble formation. The pot minder will also chatter on the bottom of the pan when you reach a full boil (audibly reminding you to turn down the temperature). Water can not get hotter than 210 degrees at sea level, excess heat escapes as water vapor. Turning down the temperature also saves excess heat and energy cost.

I thought this item would prevent cooking pasta from boiling over. So the first time I used it, I didn't pay close attention to the cook time. It was chickpea pasta and required 6-7 minutes cook time. At 8 minutes, it boiled over. (I did admit to not paying close attention because I thought I was covered.) So, while I believe this product delayed the timing of the boil over - and if I had been watching the time and taken it off at the 7 minute mark - it would not have boiled over - this is NOT a fail safe. I will use it again, but with the understanding that it delays the inevitable, but does NOT prevent it with regard to boil overs when cooking pasta. Hence the 3 star rating.

This little ceramic pot minder is a total kitchen lifesaver! I just drop it in the pot, and it stops my pasta water from boiling over. No more messy stovetop cleanups or babysitting the pot. Favorite cooking hack!

These work well, but they say on the directions that you're not supposed to use the lid when you boil water. Not sure why...maybe because it makes them harder to hear when they clank around the pot? Water seems to boil faster with the lid on so that's inconvenient. I boil it with the lid on, but cracked. Overall, these are a helpful item. They are not super loud, but once you recognize the sound then you can hear them easier.
