The exception is a genuinely long absence, several weeks or more, where dropping the temperature makes sense.

When the water is within ten\n    degrees of the temperature you want, usually 101 to 104 F in LeisureCraft's notes, stop adding wood, put the lid on, and\n    let it rise the rest of the way on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe problem LeisureCraft says its tubs have is not getting hot but getting too hot.
