Welcome back for season three of For Flux Sake! Today the gang talk about fast firing, the best way to do an absorption test, and a pair of kiln questions about thermocouples and electricity types. If you have a ceramic chemistry problem you’d like help with, send us a voice memo with your question to [email protected]. To see the supplemental info we talked about in this episode, visit Ceramic Materials Workshop.   Our friend Paul Blais, host of The Potters Cast, was recently in a bad accident.
