I usually find that it releases too little steam to prevent boiling over for something like noodles, but maybe I need to use bigger pots… Noodles you can leave the lid or “valve” open a little and watch the pot like a halk after the pasta is in but before it boils again (unless you added the pasta very slowly so the water doesn’t stop boiling, not for my patience). Afterwards, with a heavy pot you should leave the lid completely off and cook on a generous flame.
