I've tried that and the outside of the pasta is a bit overcooked and slimy when i've done it. These days i just boil water on the kettle, pour it in a pot and add the pasta. Faster and no fuss.

The electronic kettle to boil then moving it to the saucepan is the way to go. So much faster and if you have leftover hot water in the kettle you can use it while cleaning up.

Yup same, kettle water to pot, bring it to a rolling boil then pasta in. Bringing it up from cold in the pot uses so much gas. I guess next step would be cooking the pasta in the kettle and then pouring it out to serve thonk

My poor coffee setup would die on the spot if I ever did that. Kettle is for filtered water only
