there is no one way with shino.
that is the magic.
light application gives you orange, medium (who knows what that is?)
sorta white to pink, and heavy should be white.
shino was the first known white glaze.
almost pure feldspar.
its history is white.
american shino is orange.
so, go figure.
many of us have researched carbon trapping...malcolm davis
has been the leader.
we as potters love the glaze because we have so many options.
thick. thin, really thick, really thin...heavy reduction, light reduction.
but, we know that cone 012 heavy reduction gives the trapping.

a lot more testing to do.

Does anyone know if a carbon trapped glaze poses any greater risk of not
being foodsafe (or is it foodsafe at all?)?
