The kiln is an Olympic electric kiln with a Bartlett controller. I think, according to the manuals, the Jen-ken  and Paragon are strictly for glass.  Trying my hardest to send you some pics I took on my13 pro phone.  Can't get them to my desk top.  Everything is linked, but they won't go, so will send to your e-mail address if that's acceptable.

[Candling temperature / Drying greenware in kiln]

Hi Bill,

I have a Jenn ken kiln that only fires to 1800F I have never worked with cones. I've previously worked with PMC, enameling and fused glass.  Guess I need to pick up some cones. To expand, I also own an Olympic kiln that is set up for glass.  I am able to program it for clay.  My 3rd kiln is a Paragon 2 which has a controller that can be programmed as high as is needed. My plan is to make jewelry. I can send you pics of all 3, but I must admit, being tech  savvy is not my strong suit. I will do my best.

I'm a newbie & am working with porcelain clay. I've made some pendants. I've dried the pieces to bone dry.  Also preheating my kiln at 200 degrees for a few hours.  My question after the preheat is how do I accomplish a bisque firing.  I'm using a JenKen programmable kiln, but haven't been able to find info on this topic. Is there anyone on this forum who could point me in the right direction? Please advise.
