      The cook time varies a lot based on how dry the pasta is, which depends on how old they are, how they’ve been stored, and the air humidity where they’re stored. It can vary as much as ±5min. Even on a conventional stovetop, it takes about 30s at most to come back to a boil after you drop in the pasta.

      The best way to get perfectly cooked pasta is to regularly check on them.
