"FSCGWM" Firing Schedule
Wollast-O-Matte Fara Shimbo Crystalline Glaze
No kiln will be able to achieve one or more of these rates of climb or drop. And, all but very small or thin-walled ware would crack. Fara’s intention is that the degree to which it is possible will determine how well crystals will grow.
| Step | °C | °F | Hold | Time | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 100°C/hr to 200C | 180°F/hr to 392F | 0 | 2:02 | |
| 2 | 250°C/hr to 500C | 450°F/hr to 932F | 0 | 3:14 | |
| 3 | 500°C/hr to 1275C | 900°F/hr to 2327F | 0 | 4:47 | |
| 4 | 9999°C/hr to 1150C | 17998°F/hr to 2102F | 0 | 4:48 | |
| 5 | 30°C/hr to 1080C | 54°F/hr to 1976F | 0 | 7:08 |
Start temperature assumed: 25°C or 75°F
"Fahrenheit degrees" is not the same as "degrees Fahrenheit". A 100° reading on a Fahrenheit thermometer is equal to a 37° reading on a Celcius thermometer. But "100 Fahrenheit degrees of temperature change" is equivalent "55 Celsius degrees of change". That is an important distinction to understand the above temperature conversions.
