[Sca-cooks] cooking in pottery

[Christine Seelye-King]

Ok, I could swear I just sent the A&S report I had written up for our local
group's quarterly report, like in the last day or so.  Did you miss it
Stephan, or am I hallucinating and it didn't come to this list?
I can send it to you privately, Stephan.

Oh? I must have missed this info or had to be somewhere else. :-(  How
did this demo go? Were you able to cook in the pottery without breaking
it? Or is that the reason it was done on the kiln? So replacements
could be made? Did you find the cooking different than using a metal
pot? Slower, perhaps? I wonder if the heat would be more even? Similar
to using a heavy metal pot compared to a thin metal pot?
