My partner fired this load for me last night and the way he situated the cones, he couldn’t properly see them from the peep hole once it got really hot.


This morning he opened the kiln and cone 4 fell, and cones 5 and 6 have started to fall. The glaze seems to have vitrifued ok from all appearances but I’m nervous that he didn‘t fire long enough.


What do you think? Should we re-fire?

Clay body: Laguna BMix5

Glazes: Amaco Zinc free clear and Celadon 5/6
