14 - How hot is too hot to open my kiln?

One of the hardest things in ceramics is waiting for your kiln to cool. On today’s episode of For Flux Sake our hosts talk about the threshold for unloading a hot kiln. They also answer a few questions about crazing and discuss why Shino glazes turn fuzzy when they dry (pictured above). Listen to episode 14 now on your favorite podcast app or stream here.
