It doesn't come with any pre-set temperatures, so you need to test it a little to see what works for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"txw\"\u003eThe UltraLite kiln is not programmable, you just plug it in and it fires at a steady 830-840°C with the lid on, and 600-620°C with the lid off. For some techniques you might want to control or lower the temperature, with this controller you can adjust the temperature and set it between 300-840°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSimply turn the dial to find the right setting for what you want. When you find it, we recommend marking the spot on the controller with a a Sharpie marker pen so you can find it easily next time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor firing Art Clay and other fine silver clays we recommend using the highest setting, if you wish to lower the temperature for Keum-Boo, turn it down to around 2 thirds (about 5-6 dots from the end).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"txw\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #008080;\"\u003eSome people like a lower the temperature for KeumBoo, as that slows down the bonding and gives you more control.
