I am using as cone 10 sand-less B-mix clay and having trouble with my pyrometer, (it's a new kiln). Anyway, I have been just shutting the kiln off when the color looks all nice & glowy red. This is something I used to do before I had a kiln sitter, or pyrometer.
The wear has a slight pink tone to it, it seems like he bisque process has been successful. Does this sound OK? Still figuring it all out. Sa Námarië
