peer agreement (net): +1| Röstofen Roasting kiln Explanation: would be my choice; as suggesting something in size between the domestic oven and a steel furnace / oven. And kilns are also used for drying without firing, which is why I would add "roasting". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 41 mins (2004-03-09 10:24:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- If comments on postings were made at the postings themselves, it would be easier to reply to them. According to Chambers 21st century dictionary, a kiln is defined as \"a heated oven or furnace used for drying timber, grain or hops, or for firing bricks, pottery, etc.\" So much for \"usually over 550°\". It depends on what it\'s being used for, it seems to me.... |
