Cast iron skillets are used for frying and baking. I use mine to fry bacon and eggs, and to bake cornbread. They are non-sticking if they have been seasoned. To season a skillet, cover the inside of the skillet with a thin coat of oil and put it into a hot oven (400). Turn off the oven and let the oil cook onto the skillet. It will form a coating that is non-sticking. Never wash your skillet in soapy water because that will remove the coating. When the coating is washed off or wears off re-season it. I have a skillet that is over 50 years old. It doesn't wear out, it doesn't get dented, and if you always keep it seasoned it won't rust.

A cupola furnace is commonly used to produce cast iron. This cylindrical furnace operates by charging layers of metal, coke, and flux, which are ignited to melt the iron as it descends through the layers. The cupola allows for continuous operation and can recycle scrap iron, making it an efficient choice for cast iron production. Other types of furnaces, such as electric arc furnaces, can also be used but are less traditional for cast iron specifically.
