I would load your first glaze kiln according to what your first test to =3D
Cone
6 gave you. Perhaps taller pieces near the bottom, heavier where it is
hotter. Watch your cones and if they tell you to give the kiln a little
soak at the end, try that. Be sure to make good notes so that you can =3D
repeat
everything. Good luck.
