I know when I took chemistry-
pre-biochemisty- we would add something to the boiling
vessel to prevent that. Of course, I can't recall
what it is. :-)
You're thinking of a boiling chip, I bet, Kate. That's the word I used to do
a google search. Although this discussion isn't about breastfeeding, it
sharpens our thinking skills and refreshes our knowledge of some basic science.
This website explains the whole boiling process and the effect of a smooth
container with no scratches, and boiling pretty well.
