Here is a short video explaining how I find variations on a glaze. You can make 39 variations in about 3 hours. There is an error in something I said at 14:24 - 15:01. I accidently swapped the spodumene for all of the feldspar so it made the range very high. So it was not as high as 0.34 - 0.66 and the spodumene point should not be as high on the Stull chart.

WOW, these are all gorgeous. Thanks for sharing them with us. You mention that you did multiple firing with many of these using both gas and electric kilns. One thing I was wondering, how many of these can be done with just a manual (kiln sitter) mid fire (cone 6/7 or lower) electric kiln?
Amazing work John! It looks like a great resource.
Hi Sir. All beautiful pieces to me! May I ask, can oil spots be achieved with 1 firing at cone 10 or higher? Hope you dont mind silly question. Thank you.
@xm3364 no problem...yes one firing even in electric.
excellent - I always admired the japanese oil spot chawan
Thanks for sharing such a vast wealth of knowledge with us!!
What a fantastic job you did of demystifying the slip/ glaze saga! I am no more overwhelmed because I found a generous and thoughtful teacher in you. Many gratitudes🌺🌺🌺
This is just a commercial :(
@@ethnicalbert well. I had to announce my video series somewhere. Where better than on my channel.
Nicely done Mr. Britt. I have it in my will to have my cremains made into a vessel of some sort by an old pal from art school. I’ll file your recipes with those papers. Thank you.
Your soul shines so bright. Thank you for always teaching and having the understanding to the need. I just love learning from you. Thank you so much!!
Thanks for putting this out there John. Much appreciated.
just a FYI the audio is mono (left). Thanks for the video
@@twitchlazy thx for thst...learning...got a new mic...will try to figure it out...
Thank you for the video and all your great info! Are ashes fine enough, or did you ball mill them?
@@jessicawright3290 depends on your ashes. You can always rebisque them or sieve.
What a beautiful thing to be able to do. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks!!!

Love them all... what I love best , the surprises!
Thanks
Thanks so very much !!!
@galekrcmarik2043 now I use a diamond pad on my wheel and the pads
Thanks going to try in a few days for my wax warmers
I love watching this. I wish Alex were still making craft like this, but now, sadly, he’s an entrepreneur.
Why do they are have O’s next to them it means oxide right but what if your using an non oxide were would that go
For example the best one I can think of is silicon carbide
Which chemical formula is sic
Sodium carbonate is heated and the carbon dioxide goes off as a gas to yield sodium oxide.
@@farmlife4533 silicon carbide is heard. Burns off the carbon and yields silica
Very helpful. Ceramic slips are an amazingly complex subject. This helps clarify the basics. Thank you.
Hi John. Just trying to get my head around this. I'm at the 5 min mark, looking at the black board, and on the 5th line, you are starting A (rutile) with 50ml of the glaze mix. However on line 1 and 3 it says 0 rutile. Are lines 5 and 6 written backwards ??? should it be pot #1 has 0 ml of the rutile glaze mix, pot #2 has 5 ml of the rutile glaze mix etc. Or am I totally missing something here :) Thank you
COOL NAME BROTHER❤😂😂
Yo daddy???
Does anyone know her recipe for this? Faience recipes seem to be few and far between and I'm trying to get a few together to see what works well and some simpler recipes and different variations that can be posted so others won't have to scrabble around like I have.
Here is one...glazy.org/recipes/222304 You can Google.. Egyptian paste glazy ...

Thank you John. Great video. I am definitely going to adjust my firing for plates.
You’re welcome 😂
I bought both books cone6 and cone 10, and this video is so nice! thank you x sharing!!! anyway i use raw material from Chile and the results is great.
Thanks John - I do a lot of Nerikomi with mixed clay bodies and have been on a pinhole journey... cant wait to try this out.
How do you do controlled cooling like 500 degrees per hour? I don't think my kiln has a feature like that.
It is the kiln with digital controllers. Manuals kilns can do it if you have a pyrometer.
@johnbrittpottery Thank you, sir. Ours is a Nabertherm Top 80 electric kiln. My mind just couldn't grasp how controlled cooling like 500 degrees per hr would be possible, since our kiln doesn't have a fan or something to help cooling faster inside.
You can just have it naturally cool to 1900 F...I used to say 999...butvit caused an error code so I say 500F
thanks so much John!
Thanks for another great video, John. Even though I know most of the material you covered, it's a fantastic refresher, and there is always some new bit I hadn't thought about before. Every time!

Me encanta, gracias ❤
Me encanta, gracias ❤
you are so great. Thank you so much
Thanks John!!! Hi from Colombia I have heard using epsom salts can damage the elements of an electric kiln… I think the amount in the final glazed pot should be very small and it doesn’t make a big damage as other salt glazes for instance … what do you think? Thank you always 🎉
Epsom salts won't damage kiln ...magnesium sulfate...VERY small amounts!
Thanks for sharing so much knowledge and work John 🙏🏼
John I just fount you, I'm a Bodie descendant in Oregon ❤ I have a Wheel and have gad it for serveral years, We don't have room for me to learn. I keep it to keep motivation to live my dream to actually learn and create. Money isnt there, but man, I know Im on the right path. So much to watch and learn, Thank you.
Great video. Thank John.
This is explained and demonstrated so well ❤ watched all your glaze chemistry videos and bought your books. I’m systematically trying each of your cone 6 crystalline glazes. Such a wealth of information 🤗
someone hold the camera for this man.. 😭 just bought your book-cant wait to start testing
Got no friends...
@@johnbrittpottery 😂
Great video, John! Thanks a lot. May be a good idea is to prepare one tile with no additions to compare the original recipie (0%) with 2%, 4% and 6% in each case. Thanks again, and greetings from south america!
Yes but you only need one. I knew that before I started the test...or dip before you pour it into 10 cups.
Fantastic!
I wonder what those rare earth element glazes look like under different light sources. Sometimes they can look completely different under black light.
They work great with Autumnn Cry. Matte from the book...have to check these.
John taunting potters by using custer :D
Got plenty but from this testing you csn see you could use G-200 or Mahavir pretty easily. I added 6% with little difference.
Thank you it completes Ian Currie's book
