Hi Yvon!

Thanks for the cuttlebone recipe. Inquiring minds want to know--what cone
does this glaze fire to?

Thanks!

Bonjour Milton

Fire it up to 1280=B0C (cone9) in reduction.
In this recipe:

cuttlebone 31
kaolin 38
silica 31

It is recommended to put 10% raw kaolin with 28% molochite (calcined kaolin)=
=20
to have a better suspension and adherence of the raw glaze.
