Ther are two methods of controlling condensation - one is high airflow
of low humidity air plus heating = airbricks and heaters and energy, and
the other is to simply cover the cold wall in an insulator, so it isn't
a cold *surface* any more.


Or a dehumidifier. But your first method or a dehumidifier will cost
money every time they are in use.

I had a kitchen built out of single 4.5" brick with an outside wall.

Cork tiles solved the condensation completely


Don't they make the kitchen a bit on the dark side? I assume they can be
painted, but could they be tiled over instead?
