I'm looking for ideas to make an insulated pot lid for baking. Flatcatgear offers a piece carbon felt that can be set on top of your metal pot lid, but I'm looking for something that can replace my metal pot lid completely.
I like the DIY lid in the thread below, but I am not ready to work with synthetics and epoxy quite yet. I'm hoping for a simpler solution such as styrofoam wrapped in tinfoil (if it won't melt).
Does anyone have recommendations for an easy DIY hard sided insulated pot lid?
You might have better luck getting suggestions if you post this thread in the "Make Your Own Gear" section.
I’ve had really good luck with the carbon felt add on from Flat Cat Gear.

If you’re looking to lighten things up, you could try Al foil with carbon felt inside. I’m thinking that styrofoam wouldn’t hold up. The carbon felt has been really good for me. I don’t know if this photo will show it well, but the carbon felt has gotten a bit matted in the two+ years that I’ve been using it, but it’s still working well.

How about a circle cut from a windshield sun reflector? That's what I use, if it's windy I just put a rock on top.
