Hello,
I am building my kiln right now and I am still looking for suitable heat source for it. At first I though I will use heating spiral (for ovens for example) but despite turning off by thermostat it would be still too hot and warming air in kiln.
So I was looking for a crock pot. But crock pots here are too expensive. I found some electrical pan which has built in thermostat from 32°F to 428°F. I would fill it with water so it could work just like your crock pots. But my question is: What temp should I set for the pan? I am bit confused because your crock pots say just "Low" and "High" (inner temperature in kiln would be regulated by another thermostat off course).
Thanks
