I want to refire a piece that has been fired to cone #6. Can I refire it at cone #5?

Sometimes this works, sometimes not so much. It's a crapshoot with refires but if it's not acceptable as it is now then theres nothing to loose by refiring it. Cone 5 would be good, less chance of the glazes running and / or bloating with the clay. If you aren't sure how runny the glazes get with a refire then putting the piece on a thin scrap slab to catch any glaze runs is a good idea.
BTW, this Status Update section is more for what people have going on at the moment, for your question the Studio Operations and Making Work section might get you more replies.
