Default Testing 1, 2, 3 crock pot

When I leave our slow cooker to putter through the night, when I wake up and
check on it, it's doing a pretty serious boil. I think. Bubbles around.
The slow cooker is new and easy clean and really pretty. OTOH, I think
it goes from lo to blast off after an hour or three and stays there.
What would you do to check temp when it is set on low? Would I let it
go with just water for an hour or so and put in a thermometer? Yes. That
sounds good but I'll loose some temp by taking off the lid. Maybe not much.
