Heavy Cauldron

Basically a Larger Cauldron that can't be lifted. Costs Heavy Metal to make it vs any metal and the inventory space for cooking and make Lye is doubled. (Perfect for mass cooking lye for glass and upgraded clay). Could also be used for Making stews and soups maybe.

If the only difference from a regular сauldron is that the volume is twice as large, it is easier to install two сauldron than to create, in essence, a new structure.

Slower to boil, faster to process materials, larger inventory. No fuel quality affecting final result tho.

I'd say it's a good idea.

Yes, that already sounds like an idea.

Although I think some clarification wouldn't hurt:
- How much time and fuel does it take to heat up a fully filled boiler?
- How long does it last after heating up compared to a conventional boiler, or is there some other criterion?
- How much larger? How many cells?
- Can it be fired with branches/wood or coal?
- Can it be used for cooking, or is it only for "industrial" use?

The last question raises another one: wouldn't such a boiler be a step toward industrialization? Do you want to take these steps?

Makes me think of something like a, "perpetual stew" where a larger cauldron that is easy to keep hot can make soup and stew that you throw all your leftover meats/crops into. Perhaps over time Q raises for how long it's been cooking, so low Q foods can be boosted by a long running pot.

I like cauldrons that can't be lifted for this reason
