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 Copper Sheeting: Stainless Insulative
- 500 Hard, Rigid, Fireproof Treated Boards
- 1500 White Raeli Tiles
- 250 Plaster
- 250 Concrete
- 25 Iron Strap
- 100 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 Bolt
- 150 Washer
- 1500 Plaster
- 1500 Concrete
- 5000 Black Raeli Tiles
- 500 Hard, Rigid, Fireproof Treated Boards
- 50 Copper Sheeting: Stainless Insulative
- 25 Iron Bars
- 35 Copper Pipe
- 50 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: Firebricks, Clay Bricks, and 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 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 tuned and upgraded with a 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.
