Question 6

What are the benefits of simmering potpourri vs burning a candle?

Accepted Answer

Listen, we're not here to scare you. Burning a candle or using a scent plug-in every now and then is probably OK. But candles and scent plug-ins contain compounds which can negatively impact our indoor air quality, and may be harmful in high enough doses.

Candles contain some potentially harmful ingredients like:

Soot and particulate matter - from burning wix, wax and fragrance

Pthlates - are found in almost all synthetic fragrances, including candles and plug-ins

VOCs - We were surprised to learn that most candles in the USA are made of paraffin wax, which release VOCs like Benzene into the air. You can read more about it here.

Even candles that are soy-based may contain some paraffin - check the label - although a full list of ingredients isn't required by law, so make sure you're buying from a trustworthy source.

That's where Simmerology comes in.

Question 7

Can I add essential oils or vanilla extract to my simmer pot?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can add a splash of vanilla extract or a few drops of your favorite essential oils (cinnamon, orange and lavender are some of our favorites!) to customize your home's fragrance.

All of our products will have a strong scent without adding anything additional, but feel free to take your simmer pot to the next level by customizing it! Essential oils offer a wide range of scents and therapeutic benefits, making them a popular choice for simmer pots.

Question 8

Can I use a slow cooker or crock pot for my simmer pot?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can absolutely use a slow cooker or crockpot. Set your slow cooker to the lowest setting, add your ingredients, and if your lid doesn't have holes to allow steam to escape, leave the lid slightly ajar and your home will be filled with a beautiful aroma.

Question 9

Can I reuse the ingredients in my simmer pot?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can reuse your simmered ingredients to continue your simmering session later on. After use, strain the mixture (or before use place contents in a tea satchel) and store the ingredients in an airtight container. Ingredients can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
