Has anyone done this?
Do you know how long the brick needs to be in the oven for?
Thanks :wave:

Brilliant. I have got couple of clean bricks, so I might give it a go today - oven is going to be on for some cake baking anyway. Hurrah!
what temp?
I am doing the brick experiment:wave:
I am fortunate to have an aga to heat them in so i dont have to purposly put the oven on.
I put the brick in, and forgot about it So it was in the oven for an hour at 190degrees. Obviously it was too hot to hold when i got it out. Its now wrapped in a towel in a hutch, i will go out evey couple of hours to see how hot it is staying.
How is everyone else doing with their bricks?:lol:
Oooh, jealous of the aga!!
Brick and chocolate orange muffins are in the oven now!!
Hummm. Brick is not very warm, its only been out two hours.
I wonder if there are different qualities of bricks:? The one i have has three big holes through it, i am sure a solid brick would be better.
I need to go to a building merchants and check out their bricks:lol:
I have never had that much interest in bricks before:lol:
I believe that fire bricks are what you need as they retain the heat longer. Better still the bricks that they have in storage heaters as they give out heat more slowly and also retain the heat better.
