How do you boil nebs?

[rosesixtyfive]

Hello, everyone,
My husband and I feel like our bottle sterilizer we have been using to clean Sam's pari neb kits is just not working. It's been so long since we boiled them, we are not sure the time for each step.
Is it boil the water for 30 minutes, then boil the pieces for 10?
Or is it boil the water for 10 minutes, then boil the pieces for 30?

We already ordered a new Avent sterilizer, but of course it won't be here for a few days.
Thanks,
rosesixtyfive, mother of Sam, ddf508, 12 months, and Robin, no CF, 5 years old

Don't boil the nebs for 30 minutes or you'll have plastic melted artwork. I boil them for 10 minutes.

If you want sterile water, which we also use for DS' sinus rinses, you boil for 30 minutes.

I usually just start with hot water from the tap, put it all in the pot, then turn the burner on and set the timer for 20 minutes and call it done. Then I put them in zippy bags so they don't just sit out in the air and get stuff on them
