I don't think @Krissi Carbone uses these though, does she? I thought her's were more the type of pot with the spout for adding water directly to the bottom of the pot. Those don't have anywhere near the size reservoir that the insert type does.17 + what's still drying. Not much, maybe 1.5 - 2 oz.
I know what you mean about the temptation. After seeing Krissi's grows I was the same way. Just had to try them for myself.
