What is the best temperature to bisque clay at?

0

A. All clays are different. We usually recommend a bisque of 04, rather than 06. This is a hotter bisque and seems to release more gas from the clay, plus you get a stronger bisque for handling. Most glazes adhere fine. Fire slower in the medium range of 1000-1500°. Proper bisquing will eliminate many so called glazing problems such as crazing, bubbling and pinholing. Cleaning bisque by rinsing in water before glazing will also help remove any dust particles.
