Olympic Raku Kiln Firing Information:

Because of the kindness of one of our customers, we have some additional information to help you have success with these kilns.  Remember your results may vary base upon altitude, temperature and other conditions, but this should help get you started.

Also, check your Olympic documentation for updates.

For a 23" Olympic kiln, PROPANE configuration, keep the following in mind

Regulator:  
Get a low pressure regulator with an 11" water column.

Gas Supply Hose:  
The inside diameter must be at least 1/2 in diameter.

BASO ignition device:  
This will take up to 3/4 inch hose but a 1/2 inch is recommend.

Propane tank:
25 gallon propane tank has been shown to work, but consider getting a larger one, especially in cold climates.
