I know it is best to boil w/o a lid on at all, however, testing a new pot on my stove to do 1gal batches I running into an issue with the vent dripping condensation back into the pot, and a weak boil. If I were to cover the pot about 1/3 to 1/2, with a lid or foil, would this have any negative impact, outside less water boiling off? Should I increase the length of the boil, if I were to partly cover the pot?
