7. Kiln Drying – First firing
Before using your kiln for firing you ceramics you must
complete a first firing, which will allow the kiln insulation
material to dry, and will create a thin protecting layer over
the heating elements, which will make them last longer.
It is also recommended to place all your kiln shelves in the kiln, in
order to dry them out. Please do not stack kiln shelves one on top
of the other. Use stilts to support shelves.
Program for kiln drying is pre-installed as program 20
