Dear Paul Taylor,

I presume you mean you are going to attempt to use the water gas =
reaction to reduce your kiln rather than to get the thermal advantage of =
Water Gas?

Why not use a 10 litre weed spray set on to mist and give the stuff a =
head start as it wafts into your kiln. Who would know what the oxo meter =
would or should read. You need to have nil oxygen or to ensure that any =
oxygen is scavenged and has become CO or CO2.

Best regards,

Ivor Lewis.
