This is the recommendation I read when controlling temps in my UDS as well. They suggest leaving top vent all the way open and only adjusting the intake valves to control heat. However, I have tried it both ways. Not sure about the condensation though as I almost never open while smoking and wasn't paying attention to the lid. I'll check next time I try it out.
