From what I know, at least before 0.16, when you retrieve furnace while it's still in the progress of smelting something, you get the raw ore or whatever's inside back, but apparently not this time.

I'm half-sure it didn't happen before, but when I retrieved stone furnace after depleting its remaining fuel via smelting iron ore, I couldn't get an ore itself while it fairly did before.

Not sure if this is what developers intended to do, but if this isn't intended one then please take an action for this. Even just 2 iron ore can be a thing for early game, after all...

Looks like that it was intended :

0.17.0 :
Bugfix :
- Fixed that canceling production in assembling machine did return the products in progress.

(I'm not really happy about it either, but I guess that it makes the behavior similar to what happens with fuel already?)

Even an assembling machines... Really need to be careful when removing things from now on, then...

Thanks for notifying me. Sucks to hear as well, but if that's intended one then no choice.
