Hi … apologies for the newbie question but I’m a long time lurker and these forums are amazing so thank you!
anyway … taking advice from a local pottery where I’ve taken classes I’ve been bisque firing my terracotta to 1140 (I’m in the uk ) and then my glaze firing to 1040 (which is within the range for the glaze) but I’ve been reading that the bisque should be lower than the glaze temp. Confused .., can anyone give me some advice. I’ve had no issues doing it like this …
TIA

Thanks all … really interesting. It seems to work so far but it’s very early days … I’m just loving the learning journey.
As a I have no frame of reference when you all say ‘glazes well’ … how would I know if it didn’t? Sorry if that sounds a dumb question!
