also, just to clarify:

steam bath means one pot with boiling water at a gentle roll (about 85-90`c) with a second, isolated, sealed (usually) container with a second solution, often in a low boiling solvent like ethanol or heptane or similar

it's also very handy for even lower boilers like methanol and diethylether, to keep them at a nice clip, just don't forget your boiling chips unless you like to have boiling hot solvent spit out the end of the condenser lol
