As the control panels for programmable kilns vary across brands, you should consult your owner's manual, or contact the seller
or manufacturer of the kiln, for instructions on how to program your specific kiln.
Once you know how to program your kiln, enter the following schedule:
Ramps 5
100/hr to 220 (this preheat ramp is optional)
350/hr to 2000
150/hr to 2200 hold 15 minutes
500/hr to 2150 hold for 15 minutes
125/hr to 1400
Thermocouples
tend to vary slightly so you may need to tweak the top temperature
for your kiln. Your witness cone 5 should be all the way down, and
the witness cone six should be from halfway over to the tip even
with the base (between cone 5 1/2 and 6), cone seven should be
mostly
straight.
WHY SLOW COOL?
These new Coyote crystalline glazes look their best when cooled slowly. Most modern electric kilns are less insulated than their gas
fired counterparts, resulting in a quick cooling cycle that prevents
many glazes from developing the richness they might otherwise have. Iron
reds, crystaline glazes and others
should be slow cooled to achieve their best effects.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO MY OTHER GLAZES?
By programming your automatic kiln to our recommended firing schedule many of your current glazes will look dramatically better. All of the Coyote crystalline glazes fall into one of three categories when slow cooled:
1.WAY BETTER!!
2. A little better
3 Can't tell any difference.
We haven't found any of these slow cool cone 6 glazes look worse in a slow cool than they do in a regular firing.
WHICH OTHER COYOTE GLAZES LOOK GREAT IN A SLOW COOL FIRING?
Some of our favorites are Opal, Saturated Iron, Rhubarb, Eggplant, Mottled Blue, Rust Brown and Red Gold
