So how do you fire?
Moose liver brown/red is a miserable color.
So perhaps reduce for whatever other glazes you have in the kiln,
and strike for the copper reds...striking does not affect non-copper glazes.
Even my oribe, which uses copper, did not react to the striking. I still got
a jade green oribe. Copper reds with the Pinnell red. In the same kiln load.

thinking tonight I need to find another way to entertain myself.
which will become apparent with my silence...
