Available as a sectional or non-sectional version, the Cress E-Series electronic kiln features the most advanced electronic control on the market. It provides 5 (rather than 3) preset easy-to-use firing speeds, plus available custom programming capability, for an almost infinitely flexible range of firing profiles. Most “E” series kilns now have 3-zone capable controls, but are initially connected up for one zone. This keeps maintenance to a minimum using one thermocouple instead of three. Temperature uniformity is superb by design and not brute force. Three-zone temperature controls may be ordered at additional cost at the time order is placed. Cress is now the first to include heat reflective stands to greatly reduce the floor temperature when firing.

Use the dropdown menus to select additional kiln options. This model is available with 2.5" or 3" brick, as a sectional or non-sectional kiln, or with 208 or 220 V. The inside dimensions of the kiln are the same no matter if you select 2.5" or 3" brick, so the same kiln furniture will fit in either version. 

Many Cress Kilns are available with 3 phase power is needed! Just email info@rubyclaycompany.com to inquire about availability.
