The term "tick" is a unit of time equal to how long 1 branch burns in a Kiln or an Oven. One tick is 5 minutes and 33 seconds of real-life time, which makes it equal to 16 minutes and 39 of in-game time.


A piece of charcoal will only last 1 tick of length in a Smelter, Alloying Crucible or Finery Forge, but 2 ticks in an oven, kiln or steel crucible.


In other words, if a recipe for apple pie calls for three ticks of cooking time, then the apple pie dough needs to remain in the oven for the time for three full branches to burn totally out from start to finish. Thus, the dough should always go in before the oven or kiln is lit. If you are not able to control this precisely -- for example if someone has loaded your oven/kiln to 100% with fuel -- then you may need to watch your recipes directly until they are ready.
