Charcoal Introduced at End of Firing



Hardwood charcoal is introduced on top of the wares on the last step of Fushigigama once the stoking is complete...at about cone 12-13. Then the kiln is sealed up and the burning charcoal causes reduction cooling effects. The charcoal tends to pop and sizzle into sparks....which you see in this clip.

This is like magic pixie dust or something. Remarkable. Thanks for sharing. I can't wait to one day be a part of a really good wood firing.
