Cooling down the stove really helps especially when the temperature outside is 102 degrees like yesterday. To speed up the cooling process, I added some ice cubes to the water in the pot.

I think this is a fabulous idea.
I have to make potato salad tomorrow - I'll certainly give this a try.

I've been soaking up the heat from the burner for years during the summer with this trick. Works nicely.

Hmmm . . . I'm not sure about this one. I do the same in the winter for the opposite effect. I want to capture the warmth in the hot water so it will release it slowly after the stove it turned off. I don't think it really makes a difference--the heat has not disappeared, it has only been transferred to another medium (water), then to a third (the air).
