Lightbeaming got a reaction from Kelly in AK in Re-firing under-fired, crazed glaze-ware?
I’m in a very old building and this was before my landlord gave me the proper electrical support to fire correctly. I am currently up and running smoothly

Thank you for your feedback! The glaze normally doesn’t craze. I was concerned the drastic temperature shift caused the crazing since the clay was shifting at a different rate than the glaze.
I don’t remember the exact temp but I know it got to at least 1800*F. I was about 6 hrs in to a ^6 medium glaze fire. I have an electric kiln.
yes, this glaze runs a bit if applied to thickly. I have a few random mugs with this glaze that I use when I need a “dummy” piece for a test firing and it usually stays in tact. Don’t want to risk it though, so I was also thinking about making a few cookies to catch potential runs. And agreed. Planning to refire a few at a slightly lower temp ^5 with the cookies underneath.
