How much in kiln reduction is needed to obtain a good looking copper
red in a raku firing? Too much seems to give me a dull copper penney.
What is the happy medium, is there a magic formula of firing?
Please say there is!
Hopefully yours,
Toni Martens.

It ain't hard.
Try reading "a Rogue's Gallery of Reds" ceramics Monthly Feb. 1990, or
"Taking the Uncertainty Out Of Copper Reds" Walter Kring, Ceramics
Monthly Date unknown.
You'll be swimming in Red.
