Paul,
If your thermocouple is small enough you might try mounting it suspended
inside a short piece of tubing. Copper or thin steel would equalize
quickly. You could even crimp the open ends a bit. The idea is to allow
some through flow of hot gases while reducing the radiant losses and
gains to and from the surrounding sphere of influence. It would give a
second set of numbers for people to comment on.

Yesterday I bought a thermocouple that can measure up to 1,000 C.
This morning I will use it to measure temperature with and without the
dome.
Both measurements will be taken at the same height above the burner
(the height of the pot).
Any suggestions?
Paul
