DirtRoads Posted June 10, 2020 Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 I fire to cone 5 but one of the kilns is slightly hotter than the other. I balance one kiln by putting a 15 minute hold. Is there a way to slightly reduce the firing time (other than watching) and cut the kiln off at 2152ish vs 2167? I have L&L quad pro's. The color is slightly different in the 2 kilns on some glazes. The hold really balanced out the cooler kiln and its perfect now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liambesaw Posted June 10, 2020 Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 You could automate them with controllers, but would cost around 3-500 for each kiln to buy the controllers, relays, wire, transformers, connectors, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilestrick Posted June 10, 2020 Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 You can change the final temp of any cone by doing a cone offset in the controller, making it higher or lower as needed. Instructions how can be found on your manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will report on results! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtRoads Posted June 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Pieces turned out perfect with just a 5 degree offset. The other kiln with a 15 minute hold. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
