Cleaning your nebulizer cup

Sue, may I ask where you purchased your silicone pad for the base of your pot? I searched and could not find one. I finally cut a silicone baking mat that is normally used on sheet pans into a circle and placed it in the base of the pot. It kept floating and caused the water to boil over. Any advice would be appreciated because I have gone through several Aerobika devices due to this. They don’t melt, but they start getting to where nothing flutters when I blow into them. I have to stop and smack the top as I am using it each time this happens!

At one house, I use a silicone hot pad that looks like a waffle, and I cut it to fit my small saucepan. At the other, I use a "universal" silicone pot lid that fits in the bottom - it was part of a set, and too small for any of my pans.
Also, I bring the water to a boil with the devices in the pan, then turn the water down to barely simmering & set the timer. When the timer rings, I shut the heat off and let it cool. By controlling the boil, the parts just rest on the mat and don't move around.
