An Introduction to Glaze Testing Part 1

Welcome to The Potter’s Round Table, the topic today is An Introduction to Glaze Testing - Part 1.
One way to learn how to fix problems with your glaze is to understand what each ingredient does and how it affects the final glaze. This mini-series on glaze testing will explore a simple glaze recipe and how to determine what part each ingredient in the glaze plays in the fired glaze result. Through a series of changes to the glaze recipe, focused on a single ingredient, we fire the different glazes and inspect the result in a process that can be repeated on any glaze recipe.
At the end of the presentation there is a short Q&A session.
The Potters’ Round Table is a production of Washington Street Studios. As a result of the pandemic the Round Table is hosted as a YouTube livestream event and then edited to be added to our video library.
