This Vitrigraph kiln is beefy, fast, and really well-powered! It's 9" tall and 9" square so that you can place the biggest pot in that chamber. Jen-Ken "supercharged" this kiln with a double layer of elements so that the increased depth is heated quickly and efficiently! There's no struggling to meet and maintain flow temperatures. PLUS! You can turn this kiln into a great test kiln or jewelry kiln by adding a stand, shelf, and solid bottom! It's a great 2-in-1 kiln purchase option!!

The kiln lid comes hinged with a removable pre-drilled bottom, so you cannot fuse in this kiln unless you purchase a solid bottom as an add-on. The kiln does NOT include a shelf kit. The kiln can be ordered as 3 separate pieces but you must specify this in your order notes. You're gonna love it!!

Why Upgrade from Mechanical Relays to Solid-State Relays?      

Mechanical Relays, which come standard on most kilns have internal moving parts which over time wear out and need to be replaced.  Kiln manufacturers recommend you replace your mechanical relays approximately every 2 years.  Solid-state relays have no moving parts and last far longer than standard mechanical relays and offer far better temperature control during hold times.  Since solid-state relays also have no moving parts to wear out, they NEVER need to be replaced.  You will notice that solid-state relays are silent.  The only sound you will hear is just the reassuring hum of the heating elements.  So, this factory upgrade saves you potential downtime from having to wait for new relays to arrive, potential over-fires from relays sticking in the closed position, potential aggravation from having to learn how to remove and replace the mechanical relays yourself.  We think this upgrade is well worth the cost and will save you time and aggravation over the life of your kiln.

Looking for a Vitrigraph stand... we suggest using the Seville Classics UltraDurable Commercial-Grade 5-Tier Steel Wire Shelving with Wheels. It's tall, portable, and perfect!

Love this workhorse!

Love this kiln! There have been times where I’ve kept this kiln firing for 24 hours several days in a row. No problem! The extra base is a must....2 kilns for the price of one! Even had a professional glass artist tell me he had ‘kiln-envy’ when he eyed my beauty!

Lovely

Easy to program, easy to set up. Surprised myself with how easily I could churn out glass vitro and canes and became very addictive. Local glass shop expected me weekly to replenish my glass supply. Kiln is well-crafted and like the placement of the coils which makes it keep an even heat. Controller is simple to learn and once you line up the pot with the hole, you are golden, the glass is hot orange and the results are thrilling.

Love this kiln!

I absolutely love this vitrigraph kiln. It is so nice being able to do a small 4” pot or go up to 6”. I was excited to see that Jen Ken was actually offering a kiln specifically for the process as I have always used and love Jen Ken lions!
