This consists of a porcelain-lined pot II inches in diameter at the top. This is filled with water kept in motion by a water-wheel turned by electricity. The heat is applied by means of a Friedburg burner and is controlled by Roux's thermo-regulator. iMurrill's gas-pressure regulator is shown at the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Smith, Erwin F.
