OK let;s talk.
I use porcelains because they are a challange.
I mixed up a batch of my old throwing teacher's stoneware a year or
so ago and I sometimes get a bag of it out to use. It is so easy to
use after working with porcelain that it is boring and I end up using
it up to make Orchid flower pots. There is a demand for those and I
need a few for my orchids too.
Porcelains, especially the most translucent ones like Southern Ice
are nasty critters and always put up a fight. I get about 75 percent
seconds or worse.

Do you consider B-Mix a "porcelain alternative"?
I'll be happy to be your token man...
