Glass Hive will program your annealer for you before they ship it. Just let them know what programs you want. If you're worried about glass sticking, you can give the kiln floor a coat of kiln wash. If your kiln is programmed to the right temp, it shouldn't be a problem, though.

I use a curling iron stove for warming rods and it gets way hotter than it's supposed to. I've attached a rheostat to mine to control the temp. I also have a piece of graphite inside so that the rods don't stick to the ceramic if I put them back in when they're too hot.
