I use this one:http://www.amazon.com/Maxi-Matic-ESB...4119010&sr=8-1

and it gets plenty hot.

Main reason I like it is that it has a solid plate top made of cast iron instead of the heating coil. Heating is much more even than the coil burner type.

I don't cast, but I can tell you the cast iron plate will glow dull red on high which should suffice for your needs.
