nairda 7 Report post Posted March 28, 2015 Can Alberta Slip Clay be successfully calcined at Cone 06 or does it need a much lower temperature? The only information I've been able to find indicates bisquing to Cone 014. Since I don't fire anything else that low was wondering about bisqueing at Cone 06. Concerned that it may begin to melt at that point. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spadefootclay 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2015 I've calcined it with a batch of 04 bisque, without any melting or problems. It did get a bit "crunchy" so I just mashed it in a mortar/ pestel so it would better pass thru the sieve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nairda 7 Report post Posted March 29, 2015 Thanks. I went ahead and put about a tablespoon of it in a very small bisqued bowl in my kiln last night to test the outcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
