Large 23″ Stackable Electric Kiln — 7 cu ft, Cone 8
Chamber
23⅜″ × 27″ · 7 cu ft
The Olympic 2327E is the deepest of the 23″-wide cone 8 stackables — a 23⅜″ × 27″ chamber holding a full 7 cubic feet. It's the same footprint as the high-fire 2327HE, built with 2½″ firebrick instead of 3″ and rated to cone 8 (2300°F).
If your work lives in the cone 5–6 midrange — as most studio stoneware and commercial glazes do — this is the practical choice. You get the same 7 cubic feet of usable space for meaningfully less money, and the thinner brick heats up faster on a schedule where you're firing often.
A lid lift assist comes standard, as it does on every 23″ and 28″ Olympic stackable. And because the body separates into sections, a 7 cubic foot kiln can still be carried into a basement studio or through a standard doorway one ring at a time. Cone 8 models also carry Olympic's longer 2-year warranty.
Included with every order
Bartlett KilnStar digital controller, lid lift assist, pilot light, 8″ metal stand, stainless steel jacket, observation plugs with peephole plugs, full instruction manual, and a 2-year limited kiln warranty through Olympic.
Popular options include the Genesis touchscreen controller (delay start, preheat, cone offset, skip step), 2- or 3-zone control, automatic lid shut-off, castors, a Type S thermocouple, dual media, and 480V or 3-phase wiring. Give us a call and we'll help you spec it.
A note on lead time: Olympic kilns are made-to-order at their Flowery Branch, Georgia facility. Give us a call before ordering and we'll confirm current production estimates.
