The UltraLite Studio kiln is the upgraded version of the UltraLite Beehive Kiln (which we introduced to the UK many, many years ago). It has had a total redesign and is now better than ever.

This perfectly sized, little beehive style table top kiln is the ideal size for a jewellery bench top kiln. If you work with fine silver metal clay, fine metals granulation, enamelling, and/or KeumBoo we're sure you'll find this your dream tool! It's also perfect for drying and firing silver clay, fusing glass, fusing fine gold and silver, and more! 

The Ultralite Kiln is a tiny open-top trinket kiln with a lift-off metal lid.

• It is incredibly energy efficient, it will cost you less than £0.04 per hour to run!
• It is quick; it'll be at 650°C in about 20 minutes, and full temperature is reached in around 45-50 minutes.
• It is lightweight, compact, and small - you can fit it in pretty much anywhere!

If needed, you can adjust the temperature in a few different ways:

1. add an UltraLite Studio Temperature Controller, lets you control the temperature between 400-850°C
2. lower the temperature by moving the lid to one side, and take it down to about 620°C by taking the lid off
3. add an UltraLite Reflective Cover lid and increase the temperature with up to 40°C (up to about 880°C)

Some people prefer to lower the temperature with a temperature controller when doing KeumBoo, this slows down the process and gives you more control. The controller is also useful if you want to use the kiln for long periods at a time, say for advanced enamelling projects. Keeping the temperature a little lower will extend the life of your heating element.

Being speedy it's just right for a small teaching studio, and at table-top size it is tiny enough to put away if you want an occasional hobby kiln. It weighs about 1kg and is smaller than a football, so it's easy to take to craft fairs, shows, demonstrations, and exhibitions.

I want to use the kiln for KeumBoo

• the UltraLite Brass Plates makes KeumBoo a doddle, they give you a large surface to work comfortably on, at the right temperature, including an indented part for curved and domed items, or rings.
• a soft jewellery quality Brass Brush is ideal for working the gold foil into textured surfaces without damaging the foil (and much easier to get into grooves compared to an agate burnisher)
• 24K KeumBoo foil - could this be the best quality extra thick gold foil in the UK? We absolutely love it, and from all the 5-star reviews it seems like everyone using it agrees!
