Buen día estimad@s colegas,

A continuación un extracto que contiene mi consulta:

In practical terms, the ideal solution would be to gradually raise the temperature and pressure in the boiler
progressively by firing the boiler on low fire for a few minutes and leaving it to ‘soak’ (e.g. allowing the temperatures in the boiler and water to even out by diffusion) for 20 to 30 minutes, blowing down the boiler, firing the boiler again for a little longer and soaking for less, and so on.

Alguna sugerencia.

Explanation:
No creo que haya un término en español similar a "soak", que sería un símil a que algo absorba el agua, en este caso que "absorba la temperatura", lo cual no tiene sentido en español.
