It's always a big excitement to open the kiln after a 24 hours Glaze Firing. I found a new Cool Firing schedule on UA-cam @OutpostPottery and I wanted to try it because He promised to prevent pinholes and blisters with it.
I tried it with really good results but the bottom shelf was quite hot. Probably I should reduce the Holding time.
This is the schedule I used:
Heat up to 2167 Fahrenheit (1186 Grad Celsius) with a 45 minutes hold.
Then slow cool down with 150 Fahrenheit (65 Grad Celsius) per hour to 1600 Fahrenheit (870 Grad Celsius). Then finish and cool down normal speed.
I used some of my new glazes I bought in Vegas at Clay Arts Vegas and also some of the ones I already have experiences with.
I wanna thank the community to support me in those difficult times. All your comments were full of love and kindness. I also appreciate the tips you give we whenever I am struggling with pottery stuff. Thank you.
MUCH LOVE SUZA
