To cure / dry out ovens we use what we call electric greenhouse heaters. They are a steel tube from 500 mm to 1500 mm long and 200 – 800 watts. For a small domestic oven we would put one inside, close the door (leaving a little air circulation gap) and leave it for several days. Then one or two real firings and then you can go to cooking temp.
