An improved version of kiln, with a much larger capacity. It is fueled with coal and can be further upgraded.

== Sources ==

This building becomes available once you have learned the [[Steam Mechanics 2]] technology.

A non-upgraded Steam Kiln's hopper can hold 500 Wet Clay Jugs, Wet Clay Bricks or 500 Wet Firebricks at once, replacing 16 Reinforced Kilns

=== Upgrade and Enlarge Hopper ===

* 25 [[Treated Metal|Copper Sheeting: Stainless Insulative]]
* 500 Hard, Rigid, Fireproof [[requires::Treated Boards]]
* 1500 White [[requires::Raeli Tiles]]
* 250 [[requires::Plaster]]
* 250 [[requires::Concrete]]
* 25 [[requires::Iron Strap]]
* 100 [[requires::Octec's Alloy Wire]]

After upgrading the hopper, the Steam Kiln can hold 1500 Wet Clay items or 1500 Wet Firebricks at once, replacing 50 Reinforced Kilns.

=== Further Upgrade and Enlarge Hopper ===

* 150 [[requires::Bolt]]
* 150 [[requires::Washer]]
* 1500 [[requires::Plaster]]
* 1500 [[requires::Concrete]]
* 5000 Black [[requires::Raeli Tiles]]
* 500 Hard, Rigid, Fireproof [[requires::Treated Boards]]
* 50 [[Treated Metal|Copper Sheeting: Stainless Insulative]]
* 25 [[requires::Iron Bars]]
* 35 [[requires::Copper Pipe]]
* 50 [[requires::Iron Strap]]

This upgrade expands the hopper to hold 4500 Wet Clay items or Wet Firebricks at once, replacing 150 Reinforced Kilns.

== Use ==

The Steam Kiln can be fueled with up to 1000 coal at a time. You only need enough coal to burn the amount of Wet clay items you have in the hopper. Produces several small kiln products: [[produces::Firebricks]], [[produces::Clay Bricks]], and [[produces::Jugs]]. It cannot produce [[Clay Mortars]] or [[Clay Cookpots]].
Only one type of item can be loaded at a time, so you will need to empty the kiln between each run in the same manner as a [[Small Distaff|Distaff]].

Tuning the Steam Kiln improves its efficiency, as well as its speed of production. A Steam Kiln tuned to level 8 consumes around 6 coal per 1500 dry items produced.

Base production rate (Untuned and without a Springbox): The kiln produces 15 dry items per tick and use 1 Coal every tick. A tick being about 2 Teppy Minutes long.
* Tuned to Level 1 with no Springbox, the kiln appears to produce 15 dry items per tick and use 1 Coal every 2 ticks. A tick being about 2 Teppy Minutes long.
* Tuned to Level 1 with 8,9k Springbox, the kiln appears to produce 45 dry items per tick and use 1 Coal every 2 ticks. A tick being about 2 Teppy Minutes long

== Other Upgrades ==

Like other automated buildings, it may be [[Mechanics|tuned]] and upgraded with a [[requires::Springbox]]. Unlike other buildings, both Tuning and installing a [[Springbox]] increases the efficiency in terms of baked items:coal, as well as the speed at which the items are produced.
