Is it acceptable to leave unused, solidified lead in either the smelting or casting pot?

Of course, you do NOT have to empty the melter/smelter when you're done. The lead left in there will melt FASTER if left to solidify than dropping ingots into an empty pot. It has to do with the contact the solidifies lead has with the sides of the pot.

I would imagine stirring would be difficult the next time you tried to melt it.

Huh? Why? once it's melted, it stirs quite easily.
