New wort chiller - can't close the pot lid

WARNING ***OFF-TOPIC RANT***


It's funny how when I post (what I believe to be) a clear, concise question, I get a couple a responses that sometimes gets answered after a couple of back-and-forths. This OP gets two pages of responses after jumping down my neck for trying to answer his (poorly asked) question.

Thanks to those who responded with some etiquette advice...
