Keuper is a high quality, smooth body with low flux content to improve glaze pick-up and enabling it to be used at higher temperatures.
This body takes on a deep red tone at 1180C / Cone 5.
Recommended firing range 1080-1230C (Cone 03-6)
Indicative texture 1 (Smooth 1-Coarse 10).
Reformulation/change of base clay: Previous Keuper users should test before use.
Please note that this clay is produced to a firm consistency.
Exercise caution when firing above Cone 6 or if reduction-firing, as the high oxide content makes this body prone to bloating.
Please see image for colour response at different cone numbers. Pot in main image has been fired to Cone 5.
Standard full bag size 12.5kg
