I have been looking everywhere online and I can't find what I'm looking for.

My next hurdle is firing my glazed ware. Do I basically follow the same process for the glaze firing, as I did for the bisque firing... only of corse using the appropriate glaze cone 6 in the kilnsetter.

I used cone 6 clay body and my glaze is cone 6 Coyote brand glaze. I'm firing mostly mugs, small and medium bowls.

I have a manual electric kiln with kilnsetter.

So basically - 2 hours low - lid open 2" and peeps open
2- hours on medium - return half the peep plugs
2 - hours on high or until kilnsetter shuts down at cone 6. Plus keeping an eye on the witness cone.

Does that sound like a good glaze firing plan?

I would appreciate any advice Smile

Cindy
