Thats correct, never operate without liquid covering it.
If you used this element to boil say a 1.050 wort , I would take it back.
Never had a problem boiling water or wort. After boiling it should be tan coloured and feel slimy with residue.
Thats a lot of work, give it a go. See if it is worth that much care.
All I do is.
Pressure ferment snub nose conical.
@ 4 points or so off FG , open drop in dry hops .
Reseal and pressurize. C02.
Transfer to C02 flushed keg
or
serve from fermentor.
Easy. Serve fresh and start another.

I love these bottles over Summer. I do not have any bottle bombs if the temps get up there. Add beer and squeeze out the air, good for 2 months as my beers dont last long after lagering.

Any ale...
add some water to dilute back down to the ABV's required, 4 ltrs will drop it 1.1% ABV, you are around 75 IBU's.
Or you could add sparkling water to the glass???
