I imagine it would have to be some sort of impractically large closed-loop steam system, probably running around the perimeter of the pot, with a rotating paddle inside. Not at all practical, but it would be neat.

    You’ve got a bright future in crazy Victorian inventions if you can make a steam-powered time machine to get there.

        I’m an above average candidate for the Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur’s Court scenario. My hand isn’t a chainsaw and my boomstick is a pump action Ithaca not a double-barrel Remington, but also I could make a radio more or less from scratch. You can make a point contact diode out of rusty iron and graphite.

      It’s a better Idea than using electricity, wires don’t go well with heat, and you have to charge batteries.

      Of course you’d actually need the idea because fusion should be possible and we don’t have that yet.
