Bisque Misfire?

Recommended Posts

Yesterday I fired my Paragon snf243 - attempting cone 05, no watcher - and I set the knobs incorrectly. They should have been 5 - 1- 2, for 5 -6 hours, but I did 1 - 1- 2 for 7 hours. I don't know why my brain wasn't working, but that's another problem entirely. The kiln sitter never tripped and the little cone doesn't appear to have bent.

 

Should I refire or assume that it still got pretty hot enough? What does that first (top) knob determine?

 

Thanks for the help!

Well that first knob is the power level, so at min setting, I doubt it got very hot. I just restarted it. Oi.

 

I am not familiar with what 5-1-2 or 1-1-5 is.

But if you didn't hit temperature, just refire using the right settings. If it doesn't work a second time, maybe you need new elements.
