The ochre stoneware is not a very exciting color clay body at cone 6 electric, but in a cone 10 reduction atmosphere it develops a really rich dark color. It's a much stronger contrast to the buff stoneware or B-clay. Now that you have a studio at home, you're going to build a gas kiln, right? ;) Keep trying new things...

A process I used for pin-holing that produced better results. Maybe it will work for you... It also utilizes John Britt’s “re-glazing pots” quarts inversion (1063)between 1050 and 1100. The program also adds some soak times to allow heat-work theory to process... The program: Segment 1) rate=180/hr temp.=180 hold time=1 hour Segment 2) rate=250/hr temp.=1050 hold time=20 minutes Segment 3) rate=50/hr temp.=1100 Hold time=15 minutes Segment 4) rate=350/hr Temp.=1976 Hold time=15 minutes Segment 5) rate=150/hr Temp.2225 Hold time=15 minutes Segment 6) rate=150/hr Temp.1945 Hold time=15 minutes

I recently bought my first kiln and I'm still trying to figure out get a good system in place for firing, how long is a glaze fire? I have a small electric kiln with manual dials for temperature control. So far I've been doing a total of 8 hours and 2 hours on each low, medium, and high temperature. Does this sound right? Asking as a beginner potter.

That sounds pretty standard. If you have a back up timer, make sure you are setting that for a bit longer, than it normally takes to fire.

Pinholing/ blisters can be caused by the glaze cooling, before it had time to smooth out, and/ or having a contaminate on the surface, when glazing. If it's the former, adding a hold would fix the problem. If it's the latter just make sure the bisque surface is clean, before glazing. As it just seems to be a few of them, I'm guessing it is just an issue with the firing, like a cool spot, that doesn't allow the glaze to fully melt. Underglaze can begin to flux a bit, when fired. I've even had it happen at low fire temps. That Sandstone glaze, has a nice reduction look, quite nice. Also, in regards to making, versus buying glazes, neither one makes a person any more or less of a potter. Like you said, there are other things that demand your time. And if we start saying, "Real potters make theie own glazes!" Where does it end? Do theybhave to dig and process their own clay? Do they have to build their own kiln? Do only "Real Painters" make their own paints, and weave their own canvases? No, because, at some point it becomes prohibitive to be that close to the process. For instance, I'd love to do a wood firing. But I'm not going to build a wood kiln, and devote that much time to continually firing it. People mox their own glazes, so they do have control over their glazes, to be more involved in the process/ better understand it and because it does save money. But beyond that, there is not difference between that and commercial.

Pinholing is worse with the speckled clay. Coyote has a schedule that has completely eliminated them for me. I drop 100 deg after finishing and hold there for about 30 min, that way it doesn't add any more heat work but the glaze is still liquid enough to let the contaminants escape and let the glaze heal smoothly. I also added a hot cone 04 bisque with a 10 min hold.. I use a lot of reclaim clay since I'm still relatively new. Having a pugmill has liberated me to where I can just recycle anything I don't like and to try things I might not if I didn't have it but it also adds a lot of reclaim into the cycle. I love throwing with freshly pugged clay, a little too much, maybe? lol...spoiled to the softness of it.

I have found that glazes will run more on porcelain clay than stoneware. Several years ago I found an article that said it was because porcelain has more bentonite in it. I'm not sure if that is why. The B clay you are using from Continental Clay is a Porcelain-Stone blend.

For pinholes I find if you wait for the glaze to dry on the bisque pot and then gently rub your finger over the pinholes they fill in with glaze dust. This works for small pinholes quite well, for the larger ones you’ve got to make sure the hole is all filled in. Thanks for your channel, love it.
