Ive never done that kind of brewing, but could you make some sort of cooling system for the lid co the conensation drops back in? Like the coil wort chillers ive seen here? hole in lid for pipe, coil aound shape of lid then hole out again.

I'm really interested in doing something like this, how did you cut the 100mm hole?
