I use a roaster on all my ft Payne/Horse creek/and buffalo river I collect. Be sure and get it dry before you heat. I go two days at 150. Then crank it up to 400 and leave it overnight. Experiment though, start with a 350 cycle. See if it helps what you got, if not, crank it up a little and see how that works. Depending on what you got and the grade it is depends on how hot I'll get it. 12hr hold min at highest temp and then let it cool slow.
